ℹ️ Analytics is available on the Pro plan
Analytics is available to Pro users as part of our new workspace experience, which we’re gradually rolling out.
To help you better understand how your music is doing, we've designed a new analytics feature. This gives you a clearer, more detailed view by bringing together key performance data from multiple streaming platforms that show you trends over time and how listeners are engaging with your releases. You can also easily share these data to your collaborators.
Currently, you’ll find visualizations for important metrics like:
Streams
Royalties
Soon, we will add more data to help you make smarter decisions about promotion, release timing, and audience engagement. We are still fine tuning things and if you have any feedback or suggestions, please email us at support@recordunion.com.
To help you get started, we’ve put together answers to some common questions.
Where does the data come from?
We collect data directly from the platforms where your music is streamed. This allows us to give you the most accurate, up-to-date picture of your performance across services.
Reporting dates
Your streaming and royalty data is reported to us by the platforms where your music is available. Most platforms send these reports monthly, and your royalties are paid out shortly afterward. Some platforms report on a different schedule:
Every quarter
7digital
NetEase
Every 15 months
Facebook and Instagram
These schedules are set by the platforms and may affect when you receive your royalties. Learn when royalties are added to your balance.
How often is the data updated?
Analytics includes data from two sources: daily trend data and monthly reporting data. This means some graphs are updated daily, while others are based on finalized monthly reports, so you might notice slight differences between them.
Daily data comes from streaming platforms and is updated every day with a typical 2-day delay. This powers trend-focused graphs, helping you track things like streams and listener activity almost in real time.
Monthly data is based on official reports sent by platforms once a month. These reports are used for royalties, all-time stream counts, and other finalized figures.
Because these two data types come from different sources and update on different timelines, some variation between graphs is expected.
How sharing analytics work?
With Pro workspace all members automatically has access to Analytics, no need to share access release by release.
Access depends on their role:
Admins can see all analytics, including financial data.
Editors and Viewers can see analytics but not financial data.
Viewers can only see data for the artists they've been invited to.
Since access is managed at the workspace level, collaborators can monitor performance in real time as soon as they're added, without needing individual invites, requests for updates, or screenshots.
