About LabelGrid

LabelGrid is a music distribution and catalog-management platform built for record labels, independent artists, and distributors. Labels work in a browser dashboard: upload a release, set the splits, send it to stores. The REST API is there to automate that, not a requirement for using the platform. Founded in 2017 and based in Denver, Colorado, the company (LABEL GRID LLC) delivers music to all major DSPs, processes royalties and splits them, runs a release-review and claim-management layer that catches metadata and rights problems before a store rejects them with each release’s status visible in the dashboard, and exposes a full REST API so partners can build their own branded distribution platforms. LabelGrid is a Merlin Network member and a Spotify Preferred Provider.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Distribution Tech Should Get Out of Your Way

That means transparent terms, no lock-ins, pro-grade tooling, and support from people who understand label operations. Our APIs are public and documented, royalty tooling reports per artist, and every plan and price is published on the pricing page.

What that looks like in practice

  • Operating since 2017, independently owned, with no major-label or DSP parent.
  • Support from people, never chatbots, on every plan: business days during working hours, with an average response under 2 hours. API plans have a first-response target of 2 business days.
  • Release review: on Solo, Basic and Pro we aim to finish the first review within 10 business days, and most finish well before that. Custom and API accounts have a standard 5-business-day review SLA.
  • Live platform status is public at status.labelgrid.com.
