Product

Guides for every part of the product, organised by area.

Music & catalog

• Tracks & versions, The central object in Aden. A piece of music moving from idea to released master, with versions, covers, collaborators, comments and distribution.
• Track collections, Drop a track into a playlist, album, or mix in one click from the track's context menu. The picker searches across every team you belong to, not just the active one, and hides crates.
• Track references, Pin related tracks to a track as inspiration or context. Search your own library, search Spotify by song name or ISRC, or paste any link. References work both ways: you can see what a track references and what references it.
• Track documents, Attach contracts, session notes, chord charts, or any file directly to a track or to a specific version. Organise into (virtual) folders, rename, share via a timed link, or delete. Stored in R2 and metered against the team's storage.
• Track collaborators, Add people and whole teams to a track's credits from the redesigned "Add collaborator" panel. Three tabs (Songwriter, Artist team, Create invite link) over one unified search and a shared multi-row editor with per-person splits, roles, IPI and access. Pick a past collaborator or invite someone new, link a team you've worked with (as a collaboration or a feature), and always credit that team's artists up front even when you don't admin the team. The same reusable panel powers session participant invites.
• Track play analytics, See how many times a track and each of its versions has been played, when, and (for plays that came from a share link) which share they came from. Each play records where in the file the listener started and how long they listened.
• Linked tracks, Connect a track to the original it remixes, covers, edits or samples (and see the remixes of your own tracks), with an approval handshake between the two teams, split metadata, a "Remix of …" credit on the track's Linked tracks tab, and per-link document storage for remix/cover contracts.
• Version compare, Instantly A/B two or more versions of a track at the exact same playhead position. Pick versions from a searchable dropdown, then flip between them with zero gap so you can hear mix, master, and small change differences in context.
• Stems on a version, Layer audio over a track version, upload the parts you bounced or record straight over the track, place each one on the timeline and play them all together.
• Track EQ, A real-time, FL-style draggable equalizer (bell / shelf / notch / band-pass / low-high cut bands over a live spectrum or scrolling heat map) with per-band bypass, hold-to-solo auditioning, and loudness-matching auto-gain so the overall volume stays steady, plus playback tools (pitch shift and speed change) and the ability to attach an EQ snapshot to a timed comment so frequency feedback lands on a specific section.
• Mono compatibility check, Phase analysis per track version: what the mix loses when a club, phone or radio chain sums it to mono.
• DAW project previews, Reads a synced FL Studio (.flp) or Ableton Live (.als) project file and shows what is inside it, tempo, key, meter, song length, the channel/track list with its devices, every plugin and every referenced sample, without anyone opening the DAW.
• Clips & moodboards, Save visual and audio inspiration to a track's moodboard. Clip an image straight from any web page with the Aden browser extension, or add a reference URL or uploaded file from the track's inspiration tab. Everything lands in one inspiration panel per track.
• Inspiration moodboards, Every track, album, session and team content library has an Inspiration moodboard. Paste reference links or images, browse them in grid/masonry/canvas, and (on tracks) arrange everything on a real freeform Excalidraw board.
• Board & list grouping, The tracks board groups by a field you choose (status, tags, genre, label or visibility), and the list view nests a second layer (status, then tag or genre). Column choice lives in Display settings as one-click chips plus a searchable picker; status shows on each card; dragging a card between columns rewrites that field on the track. A trailing no-value column collects untagged tracks and strips the value on drop.
• AI track search, The tracks search box has an AI mode (click the magnifier to swap it for sparkles) where a natural-language request ("released pop from 2024 as a board by genre") converts into the page's real filters and display settings on submit.
• Mobile track filters, The mobile app's tracks tab gets the web filter system as a native bottom sheet, with status, visibility, priority, genre, tag, label and distributor facets built from the loaded catalog.
• Player & queue, The persistent music bar at the bottom of the app. Transport controls, progress, volume, a dockable/floating mode, and a queue panel listing everything lined up. Each queue row and the track currently playing carry a single "…" actions menu (go to track, comment at the current playhead, jump to any version-card tab, copy link, share, download, all versions, remove from queue) so track actions are reachable without leaving the page you're on. In the bar that menu also holds the player's own options (float/dock, minimize), so there is only ever one "…" button.
• Albums, Group tracks into a release project that moves from idea to public, with cover art, collaborators, media, and Spotify import.
• Mixes, DJ mixes: single uploaded audio files tagged with one or more types (DJ mix, radio show, guest mix, live set, podcast, studio mix, other), plus tracklists, external platform links, broadcast airings, PRO cue-sheet export, collaborators, and multi-team credits. A radio show is a mix tagged 'radioshow' that airs on a recurring schedule.
• Playlists, Ordered collections of tracks (internal and external) that a team can share publicly, sync to Spotify, and annotate with DJ metadata.
• Playlist scheduling, Schedule timed playlist adds/removals on a spot, keep a full membership history, drop demos into a slot, and auto-add tracks to playlists when they release.
• Playlist submissions, Groover-style pitching: artists submit a track at a specific curated playlist (or attach their own playlist link), and accepted demos are placed straight into the target playlist.
• Release plans, Per-track launch planning with AI-generated milestones and social posts, plus a lifetime-fan subscription that auto-saves every future release to a fan's Spotify library.
• DDEX distribution, Technical pre-flight on the master and artwork before a release goes out, plus DDEX ERN message building (new release, update, takedown) in ERN 4.3 and 3.8.2.
• Music videos, Attach multiple music videos to a track (official video, lyric video, visualizer, live take), as a YouTube/Vimeo link or an uploaded file, then leave timestamped feedback on the video timeline exactly like audio version comments. Share a single video for external feedback via a link.
• Remix sharing, Surface the remixes a team makes on its public profile as filterable tracks, show the original each remix is based on, and let fans listen to a remix in-page from an external host (SoundCloud embed, or a direct Dropbox/mp3 stream): the copyright-safe way to share a bootleg remix you can't distribute yourself, with the free-download flow layered on top.
• Streaming links, The "listen on" row under a released track or album, resolved live from each streaming platform's own API by ISRC, with no data aggregator and no cost per view.
• Performance rights, Turn a live show into a rights-bearing event. Link a mix as the setlist, generate a SABAM/PRO performance declaration from its tracks' writers, and surface the gigs you're crew on directly on your own calendar.
• Publishing claims, Record who takes the publishing written in a session, and read splits as three ledgers that each total 100%.
• Imports & export, Bring tracks, albums, and collaborators into Aden from Spotify, SoundCloud, CSV, local audio files, or external uploaders; export financial data as CSV.
• Cloud storage import, Connect Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive or Box and bring a whole folder into your catalogue as releases, tracks and versions.
• Gmail import, Pick attachments straight out of a connected Gmail mailbox and drop them into any upload box, without downloading them first.
• Catalogue import, Labels, publishers and management companies bring their whole roster and back catalogue into Aden from a Spotify playlist or a spreadsheet. A team per artist, their tracks, releases and mixes, their contracts, and an invite so each artist can claim their workspace.
• Cloud imports, Pick audio, artwork or documents straight from Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive, with live download progress and errors that say what to do next.
• Cloud sources for team files, Connected clouds appear as folders in team files. Click through Dropbox, Drive, OneDrive or Box in place, and copy anything across server-side.
• Email inbox import, Sync a connected Gmail inbox (or paste emails) and let AI extract tracks, milestones, demos and shows to import into your team after review.
• Add track by link, Create a track from the link it already lives on (SoundCloud, Dropbox, Google Drive, YouTube, Spotify and more) instead of uploading a master, so an existing catalogue can be migrated into Aden in an afternoon, with the pasted source embedded on the track page and the upload still available later.
• Landing track upload, Drop a track on the landing hero to preview it in the real version-card layout and have it follow you through signup into your new workspace.
• Landing catalog import, Import your Spotify or SoundCloud catalog from the home page and see it on an Aden board before you have an account.
• Import profile links, Read an artist's existing link-in-bio page (Linktree, Komi, Beacons, their own website, …) and file every link where it belongs, socials, shows, releases, playlists, press and short links, in one step.
• Sharing & upload links, Send a track, album, mix, or playlist to anyone via a token-protected share link; collect files from collaborators via an upload link, no Aden account required on either end.
• Share watermarks, Mark the music on a share link. An audible tag you upload, an inaudible ID that traces a leaked file back to the link it came from, or both.
• Collab interest, Let anyone with a share link raise their hand to work on the track. The team gets a chat message with the song and the note.
• Downloads, Publish gated or paid files to fans through a public landing page your team controls. Decide whether the download is free or paid, whether you collect an email, name, or social follows in exchange, and when the link goes live, for a single track or as a standalone team product. A track download can also be offered as a pre-save reward that unlocks the instant a fan pre-saves.
• Public download page, One public link that lists an artist's whole released catalogue with a preview player and per-format downloads, replacing a shared Dropbox folder.
• Upload links, Shareable links that let anyone send files into a team's documents, media, artwork or transfers, or into an organisation's drive, attributing the upload to the visitor's account when they're signed in to Aden.
• File transfers, WeTransfer-style file sharing. Send files (uploaded or straight from a song's cloud files) via an expiring link.
• Sample libraries, Link the sample folders you already use, FL Studio packs, Splice downloads, your own vault, and Aden indexes, backs up and shares them with your team, searchable and previewable from both the desktop app and the web.
• Storage & uploads, How files get into and out of Aden. Signed uploads to R2/S3, presigned download URLs, media galleries, upload links for external contributors, and admin video rendering.
• Local backups, Download files as a zip before deleting them from storage, and keep a per-team registry of which hard drive each backup lives on so deleted files can always be found back.

Collaboration & teams

• Users, teams & orgs, How accounts, team workspaces and industry organisations relate, who pays, who can join what, and the three ways you onboard into the Aden ecosystem.
• Teams & membership, The workspace unit in Aden. A group of collaborators who share tracks, projects and settings, with role-based access and plan-based seat limits.
• Team content & files, Per-team storage of documents, creative-content assets / inspiration, social profile links, and DAW project-file sync. Everything attached to a team or track that isn't audio.
• Organisations, Music-industry entities (labels, distributors, PROs, studios, etc.) that exist independently in Aden and link to artist teams. The structural backbone for industry relationships, submissions, contracts, and team management.
• Organisation files, A shared drive for the organisation itself. Upload, foldering, rename, bulk download and share links for any file the org keeps, alongside its writer contracts.
• Public organisation pages, Themed public profile for an organisation, its artists, and (for labels) releases and catalogue tracks rendered as the same track cards artists use, with per-section visibility controls, custom-domain support, and shared appearance + editing components.
• Organisation catalogue teams, An organisation's own catalogue of songs written to pitch out, held on a team it owns, with every writer credited and split equally per song.
• Member groups, Tag organisation members with shared labels like "Producers" or "A&R", then plan a studio session for the whole group in one go.
• Requesting extra members, Non-admin organisation members can ask their owners and admins to add extra members. The request is delivered by email, it never changes membership.
• Contracts & signatures, Create, send, and collect legally-binding e-signatures on collaboration contracts, organisation agreements, and event bookings. Using reusable templates with merge-field interpolation.
• Track requests, Publish a brief (e.g. a remix contest) and collect structured submissions, uploaded audio files or links, into your demo inbox, with a public remixes page on the track, optional social-follow gating and shareable stems.
• Writers camps, Org-run songwriting camps that group studio sessions, manage a roster of writers, collect a signature on the camp's own terms, and let people join either by personal invite (auto-join) or a public open-form signup link (with an optional price to join that can be invoiced per participant from the camp's People page, a signup wave with limited spots + waitlist, and a full public camp page. Schedule, hosts, FAQ, travel, partners). Logged-in applicants can review, edit, or opt out of their submission. Camps surface on the in-app calendar, ICS feeds, the MCP server, and mobile, and unfurl with a rich OG image when shared.
• Writers camps, Organise songwriting camps, a people pool, session lineup, public signup forms with custom questions, and end-of-camp track decisions, inside an organisation.
• Comments & feedback, Threaded comments on track versions, media assets, milestones, and todos, plus an in-app feedback widget that feeds an admin triage board.
• Media review, frame.io-style review for media files and covers. Timestamped comments, resolve, and approvals on tracks, albums, playlists, teams, events and tours.
• Sessions & studios, Studio sessions are time-boxed collaboration events for a team, with tracks, participants, in-browser recordings, AI analysis, and (optionally) a link to a bookable studio space.
• Coaching sessions, Any kind of coach, vocal, performance, songwriting, production, mindset, career, joins as an organisation, declares its disciplines, and takes coaching/studio session requests from a Cal.com-style public booking page (discipline, then coach, then date, then slot) and allocates them into sessions. Any active org member can be a coach; requests are a generic, reusable primitive.
• Designer hand-off, One-tap access presets (Designer, Content planner) across collaborator/team/org invites, task hand-off chains linked to posts, a weekly team digest email, and AI-proposed permission changes confirmed via a chat card.
• Skills & availability, Self-rated creative skills (0-10, org-endorsable) and busy/travel windows per user, with linked external calendars and session commitments feeding busy windows, and user-controlled sharing (public / orgs / teams), so teams and publishers can match the right people to sessions and plan around where everyone actually is.
• Skills, Reusable markdown playbooks agents pull at need, pinned to always load or triggered by phrases, managed at admin, organisation and team scope, with a split markdown editor, templates, sharing, and one-click import from GitHub (skills.sh / SKILL.md folders).
• Availability & travel, Busy and travel windows per user, sharing rules, the org "who's free" grid, room double-booking checks, and travel heads-up notifications.
• Jobs & opportunities, A public jobs board for the whole Aden ecosystem. Teams, organisations and the platform post openings (gigs and roles), people apply, and Aden lists its own in-house careers from markdown.
• Interviews, Track, manage and publish press interviews, for artist teams and for labels/management organisations, linked to the tracks, mixes and albums they promote.
• Employment documents, Issue proof-of-employment letters, offer letters and employment agreements as PDFs. Dated the day they are downloaded, with a public verification link.
• Time tracking, Log time worked against a track, a specific version, a milestone, or a task, per person, and see it rolled up.
• Personal diary, A private daily journal on the personal dashboard. One entry per day to reflect on yourself as an artist, with the ability to revisit and edit any past date.
• Chat & AI assistant, Team messaging and an AI assistant in one panel. Threads, @mentions, entity context, and a plan-gated Claude/NVIDIA model that can read and act on Aden data.
• Messaging channels, Connect a team to iMessage, Telegram, or WhatsApp so the Aden chat-ops bot can answer questions about tracks, events, and todos from a phone.
• Email threads, Send real email from your connected Gmail inbox inside the app, read the whole conversation on the record it is about, and jump between Aden and Gmail in both directions.
• Email signature builder, Design reusable HTML email signatures for people, teams, and organisations, preview them in light or dark inboxes, and reuse them inside campaigns.
• Calendar, A subscribable iCal feed for team/track/album/camp events, one-click Google/Outlook calendar linking, and a time-entry log for tracking hours spent on tracks, versions, milestones, and todos.
• Events & tours, Org- and team-level event management with tours, lineup bookings, waitlists, writers camp signups, and Bandsintown import.
• Show planning, Plan live shows and tours, day sheet, setlist, crew, booking inquiries, and venue lookup, from idea to confirmed event.
• Venues & rooms, Clubs, halls and arenas as first-class operators on Aden. Venues with rooms, shows linked to the venue they happen in, ranked date holds, org-owned residencies, and a public "play here" request form.
• Booking inquiries, Public "book this artist" form with email confirmation before the inquiry reaches the artist.
• Network map, A visual map of who you've worked with. Collaborators, teams and tracks as a graph, plus a geographic connections map.

Growth & marketing

• Campaigns, Send, schedule, and track promotional emails, SMS messages, and listen-and-rate promos to contacts from a team, organisation, or the admin panel.
• Campaign replies, Replies to an email campaign come back into Aden, sorted by campaign and by what kind of answer they are, so a "yes, send it over" never dies in somebody's inbox.
• Posts, Create and schedule organic, sponsored, and inspiration posts for a team or org, then fan them out to connected social accounts (Instagram, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Threads, Facebook).
• Discover & hype, Public surfaces for exploring artists, orgs and venues on a map or grid; a weekly hype chart of downloadable tracks ranked by downloads; and a per-user favorites bar for quick access to any app route.
• Contests, Gamified fan giveaways where entrants earn points by completing actions (follow on Spotify, save a track, share a link, etc.): with a weighted random draw to pick winners at the end.
• Gifts & waitlist, Three independent growth levers. Gifting a paid plan to another team (with a gift card email that can be scheduled to the day and hour), collecting fan email subscribers on public profiles, and managing platform waitlist / beta access.
• Announcements, Admin- and organisation-managed broadcasts. Banner announcements with audience targeting (platform, all orgs, one org, one team, one user), links to platform pages and external sites, optional push/email delivery, and optional calendar-event dates that put important industry deadlines on the audience's calendars.
• Supported by, Teams show which artists and DJs supported their music. A public "Supported by" list plus per-track "who played it" support, fed manually, from demo inboxes, or imported from 1001tracklists via Songstats.
• Invite friends, A member emails their own referral link to people who have no Aden account yet, from a dialog reachable anywhere in the app.
• Recommend a friend, A signed-in user recommends someone to Aden, the person, their team, their label and its size, and it lands in the admin lead pipeline as a lead we can work and invite from.
• Ads marketplace, Self-serve ads bought by organisations and shown to free users, with genre targeting, CPM budgets and house-ad fallbacks.
• Contacts & leads, The CRM layer of Aden. Team contacts, an internal sales pipeline (leads), demo submissions between artists and teams, and org-level enquiry triage with external CRM sync.
• Ambassadors & partners, Three admin-managed content types that power the marketing surface. An ambassador loyalty programme rewarding active users, partner brand listings with subscriber benefits (now managed via partnerships), and user testimonials shown on the landing page.
• Partnerships, Introw-style partner relationship management shared by organisations and platform admins (team-ready): a pipeline board of partner companies with lifecycle status, tier and next action, the real contacts behind them, a deal pipeline, and the shared CRM timeline (notes, calls, meetings, follow-ups, email). Platform partnerships also power the public /partners marketing directory.
• Fan programs, Per-event content drops (fan photos/videos uploaded with an Aden account) plus a per-team configurable fan program. Weighted criteria, points, and a customizable status name/threshold, designed to extend to multiple tiers later.
• CRM timeline, One chronological history per contact, team and organisation. Notes, meeting write-ups, calls, follow-ups and the real email threads that go with them, all on the shared comments layer.
• Organisation leads, An organisation's or a team's own sales pipeline, festivals, brands, venues and partners they are chasing, running on the same leads table AND the same board, table and record sheet as Aden's internal pipeline, parameterized by scope. Socials and a first contact are captured on the create form.
• License CRM, Teams and their organisations record and track music licenses issued to external parties, licensee, license type, territories, term, fee, and the signed agreement, with two-way visibility between the artist team and its linked orgs, cross-notifications, and automatic expiry reminders.
• Sync portal, A kind-aware pipeline for sync licensing opportunities (film, TV, ads, trailers, games) and A&R briefs (a label looking for songs to cut): run by an organisation across its roster, or by an artist team on its own catalogue, on the same kanban board. Stages from first contact to placement with per-kind wording, brief criteria (genres, BPM range, reference), pitched tracks, an activity log and the money booked per deal. Also works with artists, tracks and counterparty companies that aren't on Aden yet, as a conversion funnel to onboard them.
• Demo submission form, Labels choose how much their public demo portal asks for, the quick compact form or a full track-details form mirroring the create-track form, and signed-in artists see a demo-readiness checklist showing how complete their profile is (complete profiles have a higher chance of hearing back).
• Submissions vs demos, An organisation receives music through two separate pipelines, Submissions (artist teams on Aden pitching a track or album for a deal) and Demos (anyone, through the public portal or a connected inbox), on two boards that never mix.
• Branding, Lets a team attach their own domain name to their Aden profile or a specific release, configure email sending from that domain, buy new domains through the built-in registrar, and create personal colour themes for the editor.
• Custom domains, Point a domain you own at a team's or an organisation's public pages on Aden, with DNS records, verification and a website/profile switch.
• Custom links, Short links on a team or organisation profile, or platform-wide from the admin, that redirect to any URL and count their clicks.
• Custom profile feed, A curatable, mixed-content feed for public team, organisation and user profiles. Pin tracks, albums, events and tours into one stream in your own order.
• Canonical URLs, Every public profile page declares one canonical URL. The artist's own domain when they have one, otherwise their aden.space /@slug URL.
• Website Kit, A generated AI migration prompt, a live request playground and the read-only key rules that let an artist or organisation website render live Aden data, shows, tours, releases and media, refreshed on a schedule.
• Artist world, A 3D multiplayer world on the artist profile where visitors walk between stages that each play one released track.
• Preview profiles, Aden builds a finished public profile for an artist or label before they sign up, so outreach links to the real thing instead of describing it.
• Press kit, Teams and organisations build a multi-color brand palette (up to 12 colors) that themes their public profile and is published, together with logos, banner, artists, and links, on a public "Brand & Press Kit" page.
• Brand academies, Brands join as organisations (a 'brand' entity type), front themselves with featured ambassador artists, and run branded artist-development programs, which are writers camps with kind='program', reusing the whole camp machinery. E.g. a "JBL Music Academy with Martin Garrix".
• Comparison pages, Public, SEO-focused "How Aden compares" matrix plus per-competitor "Aden vs X" pages, driven from one data file.
• For Artists dashboards, Quick-access links to every streaming platform's "for artists" back-office (Spotify for Artists, Apple Music for Artists, …), surfaced on the team Links page and on each track's Platform Stats cards.
• Industry value props, The "what is the point of Aden for a label / publisher / manager / booking agency / festival / venue / studio" surface. One data file driving an interactive widget, a page per industry, markdown twins for answer engines, and a generated docs/industries mirror.
• Landing waiting list signup, Email capture on the landing page that puts you on the Aden early-access list, with the first 500 signups getting two months free at beta launch.
• Apple Branded Mail, Get a team's logo shown next to its emails in Apple Mail. A live DMARC check on the sending domain plus the hand-off to Apple Business Connect.
• Email verification, Verify the custom emails a team adds (contact, booking, demo-fallback) by having the recipient click a signed link, so you only show and send from addresses you own.
• Web tracking & consent, Aden's platform analytics and marketing tags, GA4, Google Ads, Facebook/TikTok retargeting, and a GTM container scoped to the landing pages and public artist profiles, all gated by region-scoped Google Consent Mode v2 defaults and the cookie banner.
• Google Search Console, Connect a team's or organisation's Search Console property to Aden and read the searches, impressions, click-through rate and ranking positions behind their website traffic.
• Shop & Shopify integration, Lets a team connect a Polar or Shopify store and surface a product catalog on their public profile, with checkout handed off to the provider.

Business & finance

• Financials & invoices, Track income and expenses against tracks, albums, and teams; issue and collect invoices; handle payment disputes for Polar subscriptions.
• Billing entities, Manage the legal entities you invoice, the bank accounts you receive payments on, and attach financial statements to tracks.
• Plans & payments, Subscription gating, Polar-powered billing (incl. discount/coupon tracking shown across team, org & admin surfaces), plan enforcement via Edge Config and rate limits, and an admin-curated affiliate product catalogue.
• Trials & sponsorships, Every new account gets 3 days of Pro on its first team, and sponsors can grant any paid plan for any number of days via redeemable codes or straight to a camp's participants.
• Pricing calculator, Interactive savings calculator on /pricing. Pick the tools you pay for today, set your team size, see what the same stack costs on Aden.
• Royalty integrations, Labels connect their royalty software (Curve, Revelator, or any CSV export), map any DSP/distributor file to their schema with reusable templates, model royalty splits with tree-structured deal models, and every statement line is matched to the signed tracks, so artists see royalties per track.
• Rights & deals, Multiple simultaneous deals per track OR per album, publishing, master, distribution, licensing, sync, each scoped to the regions it was signed for, with album deals showing their track carve-outs, and territory-conflict flagging across both levels.
• Legal & compliance, Versioned platform legal documents (terms of service, privacy policy, letter of intent), EUIPO trademark search, and identity document (KYC) submission. Covering both Aden's own legal compliance and tools artists use to protect their IP.
• Beta agreement, Everyone joining the Aden beta signs the same agreement once. Organisations through the signing subsystem, individual teams at registration. Generated on the fly, signed in Aden.
• Meta data deletion requests, Facebook and Instagram users who remove Aden can ask Meta to have their data deleted; Aden receives the signed callback, deletes any stored data, and gives the user a confirmation code and public status page.
• Trust & security, A beta-gated public page that explains how Aden protects unreleased music. Encryption, access controls, GDPR rights, sub-processors and compliance posture.

Insights & planning

• Analytics & insights, Dashboards showing website traffic, streaming performance, and chart positions for teams, tracks, albums, and playlists. Augmented by Songstats data and Google Trends signals for release planning.
• Radio & social analytics, Radio airplay (plays, stations, SiriusXM) and social creator growth (YouTube/Instagram/TikTok followers, views, engagement) on team analytics, powered by The Stats Company's Radiostats and Socialstats APIs through a provider-agnostic stats layer.
• Songstats entitlement, Streaming, radio and social analytics from The Stats Company cost us money per unique object per month, so access requires a revenue-backed subscription (Ultra/Max include it, Pro buys an add-on) or an explicit, expiring admin grant.
• Team activity log, An audit trail of every create, update and delete across a team's content, who changed what, when, and from what to what, filterable by person, type and date. Ultra and above; entries are kept 365 days.
• Activity streaks, 🔥 day-streak badges on your dashboard and next to team members, computed from PostHog activity.
• Personal dashboard, The artist/team workspace home. A grid of your teams with a switchable metric per card, open tasks, members and recent activity.
• Dashboard engagement widgets, Playful data-viz widgets across the personal, team and org dashboards. Animated activity rings, mini bar charts, an activity heatmap, release countdown rings and a plan-mix bar.
• Goals & todos, Three-layer planning system. Quantified goals (admin/org/team/personal) with AI parsing, project milestones with kanban/gantt, and per-task todos with version-scoping and @mention notifications.
• Search & saved views, Global command palette for navigating tracks, albums, teams, and settings, with deep Postgres lexical search (Pro+) and per-page saved filter presets.
• Chart style, Switch dashboard charts between the classic look and a retro dithered-canvas look, per user.

Account & profile

• Account & auth, Identity, sign-in, profile, security, and account lifecycle for every Aden user.
• Account security, Login credentials, recovery keys, MFA, passkeys, anti-phishing codes, inactivity lock, forced password change for org/enterprise invites, email changes, and self-service account deletion. The full security surface for an Aden user account.
• Preferences, Per-user settings that control how Aden looks and behaves. Theme, app options, keyboard shortcuts, sidebar layout, and saved filter views.
• Notifications, How Aden tells users what happened, in-app bell, email, and push via Novu, plus the team email inbox and social inbox for managing external conversations.
• Status renaming & colors, Rename track/album statuses and recolor them per team, Linear-style. The label/color change everywhere they show.
• Artist profile, Per-artist extras that enrich the team profile. A personal gear inventory, reusable skill/instruction snippets, curated inspiration sites, and interview management.
• Onboarding, Guides new users through account and team setup, then tracks post-signup progress via an in-app checklist and an admin-managed drip email sequence.
• Getting started checklist, An interactive, in-app checklist of everything to set up in Aden as a user, a team and an organisation.
• Guides & knowledge base, Editorial country-specific knowledge articles (tax info, collecting societies, contracts, …) scoped to a team, an organisation, or the public, with an admin approval gate for public articles.
• Feature tours, Small, self-starting spotlight tours that introduce a page or feature the first time it is opened. Track versions, version comments, calendar, links, and contacts.
• AI configuration, Bring-your-own API keys for premium AI models, per-team agent guidance, and AI-powered email personalization for outreach campaigns.
• Signup gate, Every new account, email or one-click provider, runs the same signup flow and needs a usable invite code while Aden is in beta.
• Registration details, The signup details step validates the invite code against the server and can look up the user's IPI number from MusicBrainz.
• Demo accounts, On every public demo-submission surface, nudge artists to submit with a free Aden account for a faster response and follow-up; signed-in artists submit as their Aden account (identity + a track from their library) on org portals, while a quick no-account submission stays available where the recipient supports it.

Apps & integrations

• Music integrations, Connect Spotify for catalog import and metadata sync, Songstats for streaming analytics, and request a branded fan app. All managed from a team's integrations settings.
• API & MCP access, Developer access layer. API keys for external SDK integrations, OAuth 2.0 for MCP clients, and per-team MCP tool connections backed by team_app_integrations.
• MCP apps, Connect Aden to Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, VS Code and other MCP clients. One click for the clients that support an install deeplink, copy-paste config for the rest.
• Browser extension, Manifest V3 Chrome extension that collects tracks into DJ crates while you dig on YouTube, SoundCloud, Spotify, Bandcamp and Beatport, and saves demos, media and contacts from any page.
• Desktop social tabs, The desktop Custom surface: socials, artist back-offices and self-added pages in one sidebar, with shareable folders and an ad blocker.
• Branded mobile apps, Every team and organisation can have its own iOS + Android app, built by Aden or linked from the stores, with download buttons on its public profile.
• Siri & Shortcuts, Ask Aden's AI assistant hands-free with Siri ("Hey Siri, ask Aden a question") and hear the answer spoken back.
• Mobile content plan, Plan posts and events together on your phone, then hand a post off to Instagram (or any network) with the caption copied and the media already attached.
• Mobile offline downloads, Save tracks, whole albums, documents, and team assets to your phone so they keep working without an internet connection.

Platform & admin

• Usage limits, Per-team storage and SES email/SMS caps with beta defaults, admin overrides, and a contact path for more usage.
• Ask AI about the docs, Plain-markdown twin of every docs page, a "Copy page / Open in ChatGPT · Claude · Perplexity" menu, and docs served as MCP tools on both the public and admin servers.
• Beta page review widget, A floating, movable rating widget shown only to approved beta users so they can grade the page they are on (how well it works, how it looks, how useful it is) and jump to the feedback dialog.
• Feedback capture, The global "Send feedback" dialog lets anyone drag a region or click an element to attach a real screenshot, review and highlight it (OK / Redo / Cancel) before keeping it; uploads go to a pending/ prefix with a 24h R2 lifecycle and are claimed to a permanent key on submit, so un-submitted shots auto-expire, no cron.
• Navigation prefetching, Nav links load the next page in the background the moment you aim at them, so the click lands on content instead of a spinner.
• Data table cell selection, Spreadsheet-style cell selection on data tables. Click a cell, shift-click or drag to extend a range, arrows to move and shift+arrows to extend, Escape to clear.
• Data table row selection, Checkbox row selection on data tables, including Shift-click range selection between the last checkbox clicked and the current one.

More

• Agent readiness (Ora / GEO), Public llms.txt, markdown negotiation, OpenAPI, JSON-LD, and MCP tool listing for AI agents.
• Catalog transfers, Move a catalog (tracks, albums and everything attached to them) from one team to another in one step, with the record in both teams' activity logs.
• iCloud Drive, iCloud is not a connected cloud source like Dropbox or Drive, because Apple exposes no API for it. On the desktop app it is a folder on disk, so team sync can point at it, and the app downloads iCloud placeholder files before touching them.
• Label pitch links, A share link an artist sends to a label carries ?as=label, which offers the recipient a demo inbox of their own on the page where they are already listening to the track.
• Mobile create actions, One catalogue behind the mobile create sheet, the calendar day sheet, and the adenmobile://create deep link.
• Mobile team files, Browse every file a team stores from the phone, in folders or as one flat list, with search, offline save and upload.
• Royalty claim reminders, Recurring reminders on a track's label submissions to request royalty statements and payouts on the cadence the label contract allows, with a previewable semi-automated claim email that the user sends themselves.
• Sheet layouts, Detail sheets can switch between side drawer, full page, pop up, and a minimized restore chip.
• Smart file matching, Match a local folder's contracts, artwork, royalty statements and project files to your tracks by file name, and attach them in one go.
• Label submission follow-ups, A recurring nudge on a label pitch that has not been answered, with a previewable follow-up email you send yourself and a dashboard queue of everything still waiting.
• Track email matching, Scan a connected Gmail inbox for threads that mention your track titles and link submissions, label replies and feedback to the track.
