For catalog buyers, sellers and their lawyers
Know the catalog is live before you sign.
Paste a catalog's UPCs and get one report on every release across twelve US stores: what's live, what's missing, which songs share an ISRC, and which releases sit on the wrong artist page. One payment, no account.
A summary of the catalog
How many releases were found, how many are on every store, and how many have a problem.
Every release, every store
One row per UPC across Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Deezer, TIDAL, SoundCloud, Pandora, Audiomack, iHeartRadio, Qobuz and Shazam, with a link to each store page.
Problems, with dates
Releases missing from a store, songs sharing an ISRC, and releases on a different artist page than the rest of the catalog. Each one shows when it was checked.

What the report does and doesn't prove
It shows
- Each UPC was looked up on twelve US stores: Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Deezer, TIDAL, SoundCloud, Pandora, Audiomack, iHeartRadio, Qobuz and Shazam.
- Where a store returned the release, the report links its page as it was on the date shown.
- A store is marked "not found" only when two looks, at least a minute apart, both came back without the release.
- Artist pages are compared within this catalog: a release on a different page of the same artist than the rest is listed.
- ISRCs are listed as the stores returned them, with repeats and clashes pointed out.
It doesn't show
- It shows one moment in time. Stores change; this isn't ongoing monitoring.
- US stores only. It says nothing about other countries.
- It doesn't prove who owns the rights, who gets paid, or how much a catalog earns.
- "Not found" means not found by that UPC. A store can still carry the release under another code or an older edition, and not every distributor delivers to every store.
- "Couldn't confirm" means the store didn't give a clear answer. It counts neither way.
- Artist pages are checked against the rest of this catalog, not against the artist's own confirmation.
Questions
- Which codes do I need?
- The UPC (or EAN) of each release. A catalog schedule or a distributor export usually has a UPC column; paste it or upload the file. The report finds each release's songs and ISRCs itself.
- How long does it take?
- About a minute for every eight releases. A list of several hundred can take a day or two, because reports wait their turn behind the daily checks. You don't need to keep the page open: we email you the report's link when you pay and again when it's done.
- What does "not found" mean?
- No store page came back for that UPC on two looks at least a minute apart. The store may still carry the release under another code, so treat it as a question for the seller.
- Who can see the report?
- Anyone you share its link with, for 90 days. It isn't listed anywhere and search engines don't see it.
