Hot take
Audiam positions itself as a digital royalty collection powerhouse, specializing in tracking and collecting mechanical and YouTube royalties for publishers and songwriters across platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Their proprietary technology is focused on recovering missed revenue and providing transparency in the murky world of digital rights, which is a huge plus for independent creators looking for more control and payout accuracy. On the upside, Audiam only gets paid when you do, taking fees as a percentage of collected royalties—which aligns their interests with creators. On the downside, some artists may find the platform’s exclusivity requirements and admin fees a bit restrictive, and its focus on digital mechanicals means it’s not a full-service PRO replacement. With SESAC as its parent company, Audiam has legitimate industry clout and the tech infrastructure to back up its promises—just be aware it’s more a specialty royalty collector than a traditional PRO.
