royalty Audits

Royalty Solutions Corp provides professional royalty audit services for artists, producers, independent labels, and publishers who suspect they may be owed money. Our audits are conducted by experienced royalty professionals with deep knowledge of how streaming platforms, PROs, mechanical licensors, and distributors calculate and report earnings.

What We Audit

•  Streaming royalties (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, YouTube)

•  Mechanical royalties from the MLC and HFA

•  Performance royalties from ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, and GMR

•  Sync licensing fees and backend royalties

•  Label and distributor royalty statements

All audit engagements are handled confidentially and are billed on a flat-fee basis — we do not take a contingency cut of recovered amounts.

What is Royalty Audit?

A Royalty Audit is a thorough review of royalty processes, payments, and documentation to verify that every transaction aligns with contractual terms. This process not only protects your earnings but also enhances trust in your financial reporting systems.

Our audits help identify:

  • Missing income

  • Inaccurate deductions

  • Incorrect revenue splits

Our Audit Process

  1. Review of Contracts and Agreements
    We meticulously examine all agreements between artists, producers, publishers, and labels. From revenue splits to mechanical and performance royalties, we ensure that all contractual obligations are honored.

  2. Track and Release Verification
    Using royalty statements, we confirm that every track or release you’ve contributed to is accounted for. We also identify and address any tracks reported without corresponding contracts.

  3. Sales Data Verification
    Our experts ensure that all revenue sources—sales, streams, and licensing—are accurately reflected in royalty statements.

  4. Recalculation of Royalties
    We validate every calculation, including percentage splits, deductions (such as expenses and advances), and royalty rates. This includes income streams from sales, streaming, sync licenses, and more.

  5. Expense and Recoupment Analysis
    We scrutinize recoupable expenses like recording costs, marketing budgets, and advances, ensuring compliance with contract terms. Our analysis guarantees accurate revenue allocation toward recoupment.

  6. Cross-Referencing Statements
    To ensure consistency, we cross-check producer and publisher statements against your royalty reports, providing a comprehensive overview of your earnings.
