02PLATFORM

Three layers. One platform.

Built for listeners. Made for creators. The underground has its own economy now.

SoundCloud-layer

Listen

Artists upload Blocks (tracks) into Channels. A sparse, research-board UI — no algorithmic feed. Curation-driven browsing only.

Curate

Channels are first-class objects. Curators build public boards. Discovery happens through taste — you follow curators, not algorithms.

Nebula-layer

Co-own

Artists tokenize songs. Fans buy royalty tokens representing a fractional share of streaming, radio, and performance income.


03ARTISTS

Your music. Your terms.

Independent producers, DJs, and experimental musicians frustrated by algorithmic noise and royalty-sharing labels. Sawtify is built for you.

Distribute everywhere

Flat $120/year gets your music on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, and every major platform. ISRC and UPC registration included.

Keep your masters

Sawtify never takes a royalty cut. Your publishing and master rights stay exactly where they belong — with you.

Tokenize your catalog

Set a token supply and price. Fans invest pre- or post-release. Every token holder becomes a stakeholder in your success.

Secondary market commission

Earn a commission on every secondary token resale. Your early believers grow the market for you.

On-chain transparency

Smart contracts record every ownership transfer immutably. No back-room deals, no opaque splits.

Curator network

Get your music into the hands of respected underground curators before you pitch to anyone else.


04CURATORS

Taste is your reputation.

Sawtify treats curation as a creative act. Channels are first-class objects — not playlists buried in a feed. Build boards the way are.na users build research collections. Your taste graph becomes your social capital.

01
Channels as identity

Public Channels are your curated boards. Artists want their music in respected Channels — your curation drives discovery.

02
No algorithmic competition

Discovery is entirely human. Followers trust your taste because no machine is inflating or suppressing anything.

03
Cross-artist Blocks

A single track can live in multiple Channels. Build thematic boards across genres, moods, scenes, and time periods.

04
Scene-level influence

Curators are the taste graph. Artists follow curators, not the reverse — your Channels are the entry point to the ecosystem.


05CO-OWNERSHIP

Discover first. Earn when it breaks.

Royalty tokens let fans invest in songs they believe in. When the music earns, token holders earn — proportionally, transparently, on-chain.

01

Artist tokenizes

Artist sets token supply and price per token representing a defined % of the song's royalties.

02

Fan invests

Fans buy tokens pre- or post-release. Each token = fractional royalty ownership, recorded on-chain.

03

Royalties distributed

Every 60–90 days, streaming, radio, and performance royalties land in token holders' wallets.

04

Secondary market

Tokens are tradeable. Artists earn a commission on every resale. Early believers build the market.

07MISSION
"To return economic and creative ownership of music to the artists and fans who actually live underground culture — where the people who discover music first are the ones who benefit most when it breaks."
ARTIST SOVEREIGNTY

Artists control their masters, their price, and their terms. Always.

CURATION AS CULTURE

Taste-making is a creative act deserving recognition and reward.

RADICAL TRANSPARENCY

Every royalty split, every smart contract — visible on-chain.

UNDERGROUND FIRST

The platform optimizes for discovery of the unknown, not amplification of the already-known.

08EARLY ACCESS

The underground has always been first.

Join the waitlist. Early access goes to respected underground curators first, then artists, then fans.
