What it does:
Lets you pitch to real sync briefs
One-click splits & licenses (no PDFs, no chasing signatures)
Escrow payouts that release automatically once your song is approved
Built specifically for singer-songwriters who want placements fast
Why we built it: We’re musicians ourselves. Sync licensing is still slow and outdated — emails, PDFs, weeks waiting for paperwork, manual splits, and zero payment protection. We wanted a tool that handles everything in one workflow.
SyncForge automates:
Pitching
Approvals
Splits
Licensing
Payment security
Payouts
So musicians can focus on being creative instead of paperwork.
