What’s inside a profile
When you open any artist profile (yours or anyone you’ve added), you land on a header with the artist’s image, name, last-updated stamp, and the connected platform row (Spotify, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Apple, SoundCloud, Tidal — connect any you have, edit inline). You also get two bios side-by-side:- AI Generated Bio — written by Aria from your intelligence data.
- Online Bio — pulled from public web sources.

Quick start
Add an artist
Add an artist to your profiles by searching for
them. Intelligence enrichment kicks off in the background.
Wait for enrichment (~1 minute)
The basic identity appears immediately. Streaming + social audience
populate within ~60 seconds. AI bio populates within ~3 minutes.
The bio
The AI Generated Bio is written by Aria during background enrichment when you add an artist, and cached on the profile. Reading the bio later (in the UI, via Aria chat, or via the MCPget_bio
tool) returns the cached copy — no live LLM call per read.
You can edit the bio directly in the profile UI. The Online Bio sits
side by side so you can compare what the public web says about the
artist with what Aria summarized from your intelligence data, and pick
the one that fits the moment.
Refreshing the profile
Profiles don’t auto-refresh on a clock. When you want fresh numbers — streaming, social audience, top markets, growth trends — click Refresh intelligence on the profile. Aria re-pulls the latest across all connected sources and updates the profile in place. Refresh from Aria:Press kit
Patchline does not generate a downloadable PDF EPK. Instead, every profile can power a public press kit link through the Launchpad — a shareable URL that surfaces your bio, headline streaming numbers, recent releases, and any contact capture you want from industry visitors. Send the link to press, curators, or A&R the same way you’d send a Linktree.Examples

FAQ
