A music contract can run to 40 pages of legal English. A catalog can hold hundreds of songs with codes and percentages. Going through it all by hand is exhausting, and a single error slips past easily. That is where AI becomes your ally.
⚡ What can AI do with your royalties?
Think of AI as an assistant that reads very fast and never gets tired. It can:
Read your contracts and turn them into plain language
Those clauses that look like they were written to confuse you, AI can explain as if a friend were telling you. Especially the recoupment part (when the label finishes collecting what it advanced you and you start seeing your money).
Review your whole catalog in minutes
Hundreds of songs, their codes, their percentages. AI compares them and tells you where something does not add up.
Hunt for patterns the human eye misses
A repeated title, a percentage that does not belong, a song that shows up twice. Small things that, together, add up to a lot of money.
🔍 What errors can it find exactly?
Over-claims. When someone claims more of a song than they are entitled to. If you had 50% but the system says only 30%, money is missing. AI spots when the numbers do not close.
Duplicates. The same work registered twice confuses the system and blocks payment. AI finds them by comparing your catalog.
Black box signs. Songs that generate money but have no clear registered owner. That money ends up in the black box and gets shared out among the big players. AI flags where the risk is.
Hidden clauses in your contract. Conditions you did not understand when you signed, which affect when and how much you get paid.
⚖️ What are the limits of AI? (the honest part)
We are not going to sell you smoke here. AI is a powerful tool, but it has real limits:
- It is not a lawyer. It can explain your contract, but it does not replace legal advice when something serious is at stake.
- It is not your official statement. What it points out are clues, not absolute truths. Always confirm against your real statements.
- It depends on the information you give it. If your data is incomplete, its analysis will be incomplete too.
- It cannot recover the money for you. It tells you where the problem is; claiming is still a step you take yourself.
🎙️ How does Solnota do it?
Most royalty tools are built for the big players. Solnota was born for the Latin and independent artist, Spanish-first — and it works in English too. It uses AI on two fronts:
🩺 El DoctorShows you, with sample contracts and without complicated language, when you are free: when you finish paying off recoupment and actually start getting paid. With your own contract, very soon. → 🔎 El AuditorReviews your catalog and shows you the over-claims, the duplicates and the black box signs. →And something important: Solnota is non-custodial. The money you recover never passes through Solnota; it goes straight to your bank. The tool shows you the way, but the money is yours and it reaches your hands.
The historical unmatched royalties The MLC received add up to an adjusted total of $397,286,418.71; its official dashboard (Sep 2026) says it has already matched over 80%. An AI reviewing your catalog does not change that number, but it does help you see whether something of yours could have fallen in there. (Confirm it against your own statements.)
