Distribution infrastructure for growing labels
Record Label Distribution & Catalogue Management
Manage unlimited artists, distribute eligible original releases to 150+ platforms, automate royalty splits, pay each artist directly, and monitor your entire roster from one label dashboard. Vaytone gives independent labels professional infrastructure without expensive enterprise contracts.
Unlimited artist profiles · Bulk catalogue tools · No annual renewal fee
One workspace for your entire roster
Built for Independent Record Labels
Managing multiple artists should not mean maintaining separate spreadsheets, repeating the same release work, or manually calculating every royalty payment. Vaytone brings distribution, roster analytics, catalogue ingestion, split accounting, and artist payouts into one organized label environment.
♾️ Unlimited Artist Profiles
Add and manage as many artist profiles as your label needs without paying a separate annual membership for every name on your roster.
📊 Unified Label Analytics
Review roster performance and release data from one dashboard instead of switching between disconnected artist accounts.
📦 Bulk Catalogue Uploads
Prepare and ingest multiple releases efficiently with bulk tools designed for growing catalogues and active release schedules.
🔀 Automated Royalty Splits
Define each participant’s royalty share so revenue can be allocated automatically instead of calculated release by release.
💸 Direct Artist Payouts
Pay the allocated share directly to each artist and reduce the administrative burden on the label’s accounting team.
🛡️ AI-Assisted, Human Review
Metadata and rights information are checked through AI-assisted tools and human review before eligible releases are sent to platforms.

Move without rebuilding from zero
Full-Support Catalogue Migration
Moving a label catalogue requires more than uploading the audio again. Identifiers, metadata, artist mapping, release timing, and takedown coordination all affect whether stores connect the transferred version with the existing release.
Vaytone supports the complete migration process. Our team preserves and matches existing ISRC and UPC identifiers, reviews and corrects catalogue metadata, coordinates the takedown timing with the previous distributor, and works to help stores retain stream counts and playlist placements.
Final track-linking decisions are controlled by each streaming platform, so no distributor can guarantee preservation in every case. Careful identifier matching and coordinated timing, however, significantly reduce avoidable migration risk.
Migration Checklist
- Audit existing releases and ownership data
- Match original ISRC and UPC identifiers
- Review and correct catalogue metadata
- Ingest releases using bulk tools
- Confirm store delivery and track linking
- Coordinate the previous distributor’s takedown

Record Label Distribution FAQ
What are record label distribution services?
Record label distribution services provide the infrastructure to deliver releases from multiple artists to streaming platforms, organize catalogue metadata, monitor performance, manage royalty allocations, and support roster payouts from a central account.
How many artists can a Vaytone label account manage?
A label account can manage an unlimited number of artist profiles.
How much does label distribution cost?
Labels use the same two plans as artists: distribute with no upfront fee and keep 80%, or pay $14.99 per release and keep 100%. The paid price is the same for a Single, EP, or Album, with no annual renewal fee.
Can Vaytone automatically split royalties between artists?
Yes. Labels can configure automated royalty splits and arrange direct payment of each artist’s allocated share.
Does Vaytone support bulk catalogue uploads?
Yes. Bulk upload and catalogue ingestion tools are available for labels managing multiple releases or large catalogues.
Can Vaytone migrate our catalogue from another distributor?
Yes. Vaytone provides full migration support, including identifier matching, metadata review and correction, bulk ingestion, and coordination of the previous distributor’s takedown timing.
Will our streams and playlist placements be preserved?
Vaytone carefully matches existing ISRC and UPC identifiers and coordinates timing to help stores link transferred releases. Because each platform controls its own linking decisions, preservation cannot be guaranteed in every case.
How are label earnings reported and paid?
Reporting and withdrawal conditions are established individually with each label during onboarding, based on its catalogue and operational requirements.
Who keeps ownership of the masters?
Vaytone does not take ownership of the music. Master ownership remains with the applicable artist, label, or rights holder.
