Key Features and Benefits

• Free Distribution and 100% Royalties: Freecords is the world's only platform offering free distribution with artists retaining all earnings, without hidden fees, splits, or subscriptions.
• Social Networking: Artists connect, collaborate, and engage with fans through our integrated social features.
• Global Reach: We distribute music to 140 platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, Boomplay and Deezer, helping artists reach global audiences.
• Music Discovery: Discover new music on our platform with streaming capabilities for all music uploaded to Freecords.
• Flexible Exit: Users can request to remove their content and discontinue use of Freecords at any time without obligations.

While providing unparalleled benefits, our mission drives us to operate on very tight profit margins, and we would like to be up-front regarding several important considerations:

• Distribution Time: The distribution process typically takes around 18 days in total. The first 7 days are dedicated to our manual review and moderation to ensure quality and compliance. After that, the upload is sent to DSPs, where it undergoes an additional 11-day review before being fully distributed.
• AI-generated Music Policy: While we've historically supported AI-assisted music creation, recent abuses of AI-generated music for streaming fraud have posed serious challenges and jeopardized the integrity of our platform and the works of all artists we support. As of October 1st, 2024, we no longer accept fully AI-generated music. This change will not affect AI-assisted music uploads where AI was used to aid and enhance the creative process—only those where the audio was generated entirely by AI.
• Technical Proficiency: Artists should understand digital music formats and metadata for successful uploads and adhere to the Distribution Guidelines.

Made by musicians for musicians, Freecords eliminates financial barriers for the independent artists, while providing a transparent, artist-centric platform and community support.
