UnitedMasters positions itself as more than a distributor. DEBUT+ and SELECT both release music to 150+ services, including Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, Instagram, Amazon Music, YouTube, Tidal and Pandora, and both keep 100% of your masters and royalties. What sets UnitedMasters apart is its in-house sync team and advertising agency, which place artists' music in brand campaigns; access to those opportunities, advanced audience analytics, real-time royalty payments and priority support comes with SELECT. An invite-only PARTNER tier adds a dedicated artist relations specialist, marketing and release strategy support and playlist pitching. Release dates can be as soon as 2 to 5 business days after submission, and approved music should be live within 5 business days. The plans page does not show prices as fetched for this review, so we list pricing as pending. For artists whose plan is to land placements rather than only stream, it is worth a look.
