How It Works

From idea to stage in five steps

Vinylaunch is the only platform that bridges crowdfunding, industry services, and tour management in a single workflow.

01

Create Your Profile

Sign up as a solo artist, band, or service provider. Build your page with music, photos, and your story.

02

Crowdfund

Fund studio time, an album, merch, a single show or a full tour.

03

Plan a Show or Tour

Not crowdfunding? Plan a single show, multi-day festival, or full tour — open to industry pros who bid or offer services to pull it off.

04

Begin Pre-Launch

Build out your project in Pre-Launch. Let producers, venues, engineers, and more bid on your campaign.

05

Go Public & Fund Your Dream

Launch publicly and let fans back the rewards you curate. Your team is paid through an industry-first escrow-and-release process built to maximize campaign success.

Features

Everything an artist needs

No more juggling five different platforms. Vinylaunch puts your entire career in one place.

Streaming Platform

Every artist gets 5 GB of media hosting included. Fans get to stream and discover more than just your music.

Tour & Show Builder

Plot every venue stop on your tour map. Solicit industry help along the way. Sell tickets and pre-sell merch. Know what to bring to each show before it ever happens.

Industry Bidding

Producers, engineers, venues, studios and 40+ other Industry Service Professions bid on your tours, shows or album/merch crowdfunding campaigns — keeping prices competitive.

Verified Reviews

Service providers are rated by real artists. Find the best collaborators with confidence.

Privacy-First

Vinylaunch is not a data broker. Your data and your fans' data stay private. Full stop.

Label & Industry Services

Vinylaunch's mission is to support artists by giving them access to services and industry knowledge. Respectfully merging the use of AI and never replacing the humans that hold the real-world knowledge that artists both need and seek.

Service Providers

Every service the music industry needs — in one place

Service providers register on Vinylaunch and browse open campaigns that match their specialty. They bid or express interest directly to artists — keeping the process transparent and competitive. Small providers compete on equal footing with the big players.

Industry tools, in your hands.

Real industry-grade tools and the option to consult with real industry humans — producers, publishers, attorneys, A&R, and more — built into the platform you already use. We respectfully use AI to make the work faster; we never replace the people whose real-world knowledge you actually need.

  • Catalog Manager — uploads, splits, rights, registrations
  • Catalog Valuation & Catalog Manager analytics
  • Agreement Generation with e-sign
  • Press Kit Builder + Campaign Planner + Budget Builder
  • Book paid 15-min consultations with industry pros (Launchpad Elite)

A dedicated Vinylaunch Label arm is on the roadmap — capped royalties, artist-retained ownership — but it's not what we're leading with today.
