MusicByte Dev
Our Partnership Model

A long-term partner.
Not a label deal.

MusicByte is more than a service. We become your long-term partner — and we put our money where our mouth is by tying our success to yours.

Handshake in a Nashville recording studio

We take a 5% net revenue share on all new content created through our process. That's it.

This keeps us deeply invested in your success — and lets us offer high-touch packages at upfront prices that would otherwise be impossible. Compare 5% net to the 50–85% gross a traditional label would take, and you see the difference immediately.

You retain 100% ownership of all masters, photos, videos, your website, your fan list, and your brand assets. We never hold rights, we never block distribution, and we never own a piece of your catalog.

Buyout, anytime. Every tier publishes a one-time buyout figure. Pay it and the royalty ends — clean, no negotiation. (Tier 1: $2,000 · Tier 2: $3,000 · Tier 3: $6,000)

100% Artist Ownership

You own every master, photo, video, asset, and your fan list — forever. Hosted under your name, exportable any time.

5% Net-Revenue Share

We take 5% of net revenue on the new content we create with you. No splits, no recoupment, no rights grab.

Buyout Available Anytime

Want out of the royalty? Each tier has a published one-time buyout figure. No drama, no negotiation.

Aligned For The Long Run

We only earn when you earn. That keeps us selective about who we work with and invested in your career past launch day.

The Fine Print — In Plain English
  • · Net revenue means after platform and distribution fees only (e.g. Spotify, DistroKid, Stripe processing).
  • · No royalty on your existing catalog — only on the new songs and content we produce together.
  • · No royalty on self-produced physical merch you fulfill outside the store we build.
  • · The 5% applies to streaming, sync, and digital sales of MusicByte-produced masters, plus your fan-subscription and digital-store revenue running on the infrastructure we build.
  • · Buyout figure is fixed at the price published on your tier — it doesn't scale with your success.

A model designed to be aligned.
