Projects

Start before there is a release.

A project is music you are still making, from a first sketch to the final mix, with its steps and its expenses in one place. Up to 3 at a time are free.

Task types

Four kinds of work.

Every task is one of four things. The app tells you what to do and hands you the words, and nothing posts for you.

Pitch

Asking a curator, a blog or a writer to listen.

Tease

Posting a clip or a photo before the release lands.

Prep

Work nobody sees: uploads, drafts, links, your artwork.

Launch

Everything you do on the day itself, hour by hour.

Drop day

Every release ends with a pass.

On release day the plan turns into a checklist for the day, and you get a backstage pass with your artwork on it, ready to share.

Dashboard

See where it all stands.

Budget keeps what you spend in one place. Dashboard shows how far along you are, across every release.
