Release music without the guesswork

Know which playlists are real, who to pitch and how your songs are really doing, before a botted placement or a quiet release costs you.

As preached by

Every Release Is a Gamble

And the odds are hidden from you

  • Warned after the damage

    A botted playlist you never paid for can still freeze your royalties.

  • Every offer is a coin toss

    No telling a real curator from a bot farm until you’re on the playlist.

  • Pitching from a spreadsheet

    Hours hunting for curator emails, with no idea who will listen.

  • Only half the picture

    Your own numbers, never the playlists and artists around them.

    • Lost links, so you can ask for them back

Questions From Artists

Plainly answered

Can a botted playlist hurt me if I never paid for it?

Yes. Distributors and Spotify act on artificial streams wherever they come from, so a playlist that adds you on its own can still get royalties withheld or a track removed. artist.tools flags those playlists the day they add you, so you can ask to be taken off early.

What should I do if a risky playlist adds my song?

Contact the curator and ask to be removed, keep a record that you did, and share it with your distributor if they ask. Bot detection keeps watching, so you know whether the next playlist is safe too.

How is this different from Spotify for Artists?

Spotify for Artists shows your own numbers. artist.tools adds what is around them: which playlists are botted, which curators add artists like you, how other artists are growing, and who is writing about you.

Can I track more than one artist?

Yes. Every plan includes unlimited artists, so you can follow your own projects, collaborators and the artists you are measuring yourself against.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. You can start free, and the free tools (bot checker, stream counter, royalties calculator and more) need no account at all.
