ESP ACME IDEA CORP

Now in closed beta for iPhone

CatalogTracker. Know what you own, track by track.

Split sheets generated from a catalogue that already holds the names and the codes — sent for confirmation, and confirmed in a browser with nothing to install.

One email to confirm, then an invitation to the TestFlight build. It needs iOS 26.4 or later. Your address is used for nothing else.

01Walkthrough

  • 01Catalogue
    The Catalogue screen, with recently opened releases above a grid of all 54, each showing cover art, artists, and type.
  • 02Release
    A release open to its tracklist, with artwork, credits, duration, and a completeness meter at 45 percent.
  • 03Track metadata
    A track's details, listing title and display artist above identifiers including a verified ISRC.
  • 04Ownership splits
    The splits screen, with master ownership complete at 100 percent split evenly between two artists, ready to generate an agreement.
  • 05Agreement setup
    The agreement editor set to a split sheet, showing a template-only notice, effective date, governing law, and song details.
  • 06Parties and terms
    The agreement editor scrolled to the parties, each confirmed with a checkmark, above the administration and collection terms.
  • 07Generated split sheet
    The generated split sheet previewed as a document, with numbered sections for song details, parties, splits, and terms above two unsigned signature blocks.

02What it does

A split sheet generated from what is already recorded — the parties, the terms, the governing law, and somewhere to sign — rather than typed out again from memory.

Sent from the app for confirmation, and confirmed in a browser. The person agreeing installs nothing and makes no account.

Master and publishing splits kept apart, per track, each summing to its own 100 — and visibly incomplete until it does.

The catalogue underneath it, so the names and the codes are already there — every release with its artwork, its artists and its type, a completeness meter on each, and identifiers down to ISRC, ISWC, UPC, GRid, ISNI and IPI.

03Questions

How does a collaborator confirm a split?

You send it from the app and they get an email with a link. They can accept or decline in a browser — nothing to install, no account to make — and that is recorded as a web confirmation. If they already have CatalogTracker they can respond in the app instead, where it is a receipt signed by their device's Secure Enclave rather than a web response. Neither one executes the agreement itself — that is still print-and-sign.

Does CatalogTracker sign the split sheet?

No. It generates the document and records who confirmed which split; signing is print-and-sign. A collaborator's confirmation is a receipt signed by the Secure Enclave on their own device, which proves that device was present — and the app is explicit that device presence is not proof of identity.

What does CatalogTracker cost?

Nothing. The catalogue, the imports, the generated PDFs, the exports and the on-device backups are unlimited and free, and the only limit anywhere in the product is five split-sheet shares a month. There is no purchase of any kind in the app today.

Which jurisdictions do the generated agreements cover?

Four options: United States — New York, United States — Delaware, Canada — Ontario, and Other. The choice sets the governing-law clause, the statutory-rate reference and the paper size. There is no United Kingdom, European or Australian option, and every generated document is a template rather than legal advice.

Where is my catalogue stored?

On your own device. CatalogTracker is local-first, and this company's servers never hold your catalogue. The only thing that leaves is a split you choose to share, which carries that track, its identifiers, the parties, their percentages and their roles — never the rest of the catalogue. Everything except sharing and importing works with no network at all.

Can I import a catalogue I already have?

Yes, by artist name, Apple Music URL or a streaming link. The app reads the iTunes Search API, MusicBrainz and Credits.fm, and can enrich from Apple Music behind the system permission prompt. A deep import is deliberately unhurried, because MusicBrainz is throttled to one request a second — and when a match fails the app says so rather than reporting a clean success.

What does the closed beta mean for the documents it generates?

Every PDF a beta account generates carries BETA — NOT A VALID DOCUMENT across each page. It is set on the server, it cannot be switched off from inside the app, and it is there because a split sheet from an unfinished product should never be able to pass for a finished one.
