Register releases. Confirm credits. Ship clean data


Ambler is the collaborative platform where labels, artists, and contributors register metadata and confirm splits — then validated data flows directly to CMOs, PROs, Publishers and distributors.

The metadata problem costs the industry billions

Every release generates credits, splits, and rights data that needs to reach the right organisations. Most of it is still managed in spreadsheets, email threads, and disconnected portals.

One workflow. Every stakeholder. Confirmed at source.

Ambler replaces the back-and-forth with a structured flow where everyone confirms their own credits.

  • Your team starts a registration — track details, initial splits, and an invite to the main artist.

  • The artist reviews the details, confirms their roles and splits, adds contributors, and proposes their shares.

  • Each contributor sees their proposed roles and splits. They confirm or counter — no chasing, no ambiguity.

  • The artist reviews all responses, verifies that master and publishing splits total 100%, and submits to the label.

  • Your team does a final review. Three confirmations — release date, external destinations, internal distribution — then ships.

  • Validated metadata flows to PROs, CMOs, publishers, and your distributor or owned release agent. Locked. Audit trail. Done.
