The problem
The record is live. The producer, writer, or engineer never got the check — or the credit.
Songs often land registered at 100% because nobody could find the beatmaker. That’s a conflict we can flag.
Not consulting. Not career damage for sport. A pause, a notice, a negotiation link, then play again.
How it works
A producer, writer, or engineer submits a claim with receipts — missing pay, missing credit, or both.
The other side gets 24–48 hours to respond. A person can still get on a call. This is not a black box.
If it isn’t resolved, the track freezes. The album can still play. That song cannot — until it’s made right.
Once terms are agreed, the track comes back within 24 hours. Streams stay intact. Careers don’t get burned down.
Who it’s for
Get paid and credited without waiting on a handshake that never lands.
Session work that shipped and never cleared still counts. PauseDrop is built for that paper trail.
A cleaner way to handle disputes, takedowns, and registration conflicts before they become catalog problems.
Simple start
We’re gathering the waitlist before the heavy integrations. Producer plans land around $25 a month, with separate tiers for managers, publishers, and lawyers. DMCA, case management, and registration checks come first. Split sheets come later.
