SESSION Stage 05 — Collect

You are owed money you have never seen.

Unclaimed music royalties sit in collection society accounts because nobody registered the work, the splits never got written down, or the metadata did not match. None of that is a talent problem. It is a paperwork problem, and paperwork is automatable.

Splits agreed in the room, not in the lawsuit.

The most expensive conversation in music is the one nobody had. Everyone in the session knows what was agreed on the night. Two years later, when there is money attached, everybody remembers it slightly differently — and the person with the worst memory is usually the one who wrote it down last.

In the room

Write the split down

Split Sheet Manager captures who did what and what they get while everyone is still in the room and still agrees — before the record is worth arguing about.

Before release

Register everything

The Royalty Collection Center and Collection Society Manager track registrations so the work is actually claimable in the places that pay out, instead of accruing against nobody.

After release

Audit and forecast

The AI Revenue Auditor looks for unclaimed and misrouted income, forecasting projects what the catalog earns next, and your Monetization Score tells you where the gaps still are.

Questions people actually ask.

How do I find unclaimed music royalties?

Unclaimed royalties usually come from one of three failures: the work was never registered with a collection society, the split was never documented, or the metadata did not match across systems. SESSION's AI Revenue Auditor looks for all three across your catalog and shows you what is sitting uncollected and why.

How should producers and artists split royalties?

There is no single correct number — it depends on contribution, leverage, and what was agreed. What matters far more than the percentage is that it is written down, dated, and agreed by everyone before the record earns anything. SESSION's Split Sheet Manager captures it during the session rather than after the money shows up.

What is a split sheet and do I really need one?

A split sheet records who contributed to a song and what percentage of the writing and master each person holds. You need one for every song with more than one contributor. Without it, collection societies have no instruction on how to pay, and disputes have nothing to resolve against except memory.

Do I need to register with a PRO to get paid?

For performance royalties, yes — a performing rights organization collects when your music is played publicly or streamed, and it cannot pay you for works it does not know about. SESSION tracks registration status per work so you can see what is claimable and what is still invisible to the people holding your money.

This is one rung. SESSION carries the same record through protection, mastering, storage, audience, and the money it earns.
