Why Underscore

Built for artists. Trusted by supervisors. No middleman.

Underscore is the sync platform that puts the music — and the people who make it — first. Zero commission. Transparent scoring. Direct contact. Just the work.

The Underscore Difference

Seven reasons we built this differently.

0% Commission

When you land a placement through Underscore, you keep 100% of the fee. We charge a flat monthly subscription — never a piece of your sync.

100% Artist Ownership

You retain every right to your masters and compositions. Underscore never claims ownership, publishing, or admin rights to your music.

Weighted AI Sync Scores

Tracks are ranked by transparent, brief-aware AI scoring — not by who paid more. Supervisors see your music when it actually fits.

Direct Artist Contact

Supervisors message artists directly. No A&R gatekeepers, no agency middlemen taking a finder's fee on top of your work.

48-Hour Free Industry Trial

Music supervisors and producers can browse the full catalog free for 48 hours. Real evaluation, no friction, no credit card.

Auto-Generated Sync Reports

Every upload gets a complete sync metadata report: lyrics transcribed, themes extracted, scene fits ranked. Pitch-ready from day one.

Downloadable PDF EPK

Your full Electronic Press Kit — bio, tracks, links, sync metadata — exports to a polished PDF you can send anywhere, anytime.

The Workflow

From upload to placement in four steps.

01
Upload

Drop your stems or final mix. Underscore auto-transcribes lyrics, tags themes, and writes the sync brief for you.

02
Get Scored

Every track gets a transparent sync-fit score against active industry briefs.

03
Get Matched

Supervisors browse your music when it actually fits the project — not because you paid for placement.

04
Get Paid

Deals close between you and the supervisor. Underscore takes nothing.

Music belongs to the people who make it.

That's the whole reason Underscore exists. Join free, and only pay if you want unlimited uploads and reports.
