Patchline is an AI command center for the music business. You drop a track, ask a question, or paste a streaming link — and Aria reads your catalog, queries streaming data, drafts a pitch, plans a release, parses a royalty PDF, or generates the artwork brief. Same product, many front doors: a web dashboard, Telegram, Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex.

​
Who Patchline is for

Independent artists

Solo artists and bedroom producers running the business between sessions. Free tier + Starter ($9.99/mo) cover the work.

DIY labels & managers

Labels & publishers

Enterprise plans for large catalogs, custom integrations, dedicated success management. Built for teams that need API access and high-volume processing.

AI agents

Patchline ships first-class agent surfaces: product MCP server, Claude plugin, AGENTS.md, llms.txt, JSON-LD on every page. If you’re an AI copilot, start here.

What Patchline is not

Setting expectations matters. Patchline is not:
  • A distributor. Patchline doesn’t ship your music to Spotify, Apple, Tidal, etc. You distribute through Distrokid, Tunecore, CD Baby, or your label. Patchline imports the result and runs intelligence on it.
  • A DAW. No multitrack editor. Patchline reads finished audio and helps you market, plan, and analyze it.
  • A replacement for your manager. Aria handles the busywork — spreadsheets, pitch drafting, data lookup, calendar coordination. The strategy decisions are still yours.
  • A general-purpose chatbot. Aria is grounded in your music data and the music industry. Ask it about your catalog, get a grounded answer. Ask it about quantum physics, it’ll politely redirect.

​
How Patchline grounds AI answers

Generic AI hallucinates ISRCs, invents stream counts, fabricates curator names. Patchline’s whole architecture is built to stop that:
  • Your catalog is the source of truth. Aria reads it directly. If it doesn’t have data, it says “I don’t have that” instead of guessing.
  • Streaming numbers come from provider-backed sources and platform APIs, not training data.
  • Sonic analysis is real audio analysis, not LLM-vibes-based-on-the-title.
  • Royalty parsing reads the PDF you uploaded, line by line.
You can verify any number Aria gives you. That’s the design.
