Standard / premium / exclusive — per beat, per release. Track which lease was sold, when, to whom, for what use. The accounting layer your BeatStars page doesn't do.
— FOR BEATMAKERS
Stop running your catalog
from a spreadsheet.
Beatmakers are running a small business — licensing, splits, clearance, distribution, revenue tracking. Most do it from a Google Sheet, a Notion doc, and a panic. GRIDWERK structures the whole catalog operation in one local desktop app, next to your library and your DAW.
01 OPERATIONS STACK
Six operations
most beatmakers wing.
Each one is a real cost when it goes wrong. Lost lease records, undocumented samples, missing splits, late distribution. GRIDWERK structures every one of them.
Multi-stem grouping (Tracklib beat stacks collapse into one row). Status filters: needs clearance, in negotiation, cleared, paid. Linked to library so you never lose track.
Per song: featured artists, producers, writers, engineers. Percentages, contact info, contract status. Ready for distributor upload.
Import distributor CSV (DistroKid, TuneCore, CDBaby). Auto-matches tracks to projects, calculates splits per artist, breaks down by platform and country.
Export multi-format deliverables (WAV / FLAC / MP3 / AAC) from one source in one pass. Pack zip with metadata + artwork.
Stems, mastering, mix coach, reference analysis — all the production work that used to live in five separate apps.
$149 once, for working beatmakers
One payment, no subscription, nothing to cancel. Pro covers the production suite and the business side — beat inventory, sample clearance, distribution prep, revenue — on two machines at a time, with every 1.x update included.
