What we audit
Four signals. One score.
Built for musicians.
Generic tools count followers. DECODED looks at the signals that actually move the needle for independent artists — streaming metadata, cross-platform branding, and DSP profile health.
Branding Consistency
Is your identity coherent across platforms? Playlist editors and label scouts cross-reference your social and streaming profiles. Inconsistent names, mismatched bios, or stale profile photos signal an amateur.
Social Activity
Posting cadence and engagement signals matter for algorithmic surface area. A dormant profile gets less algorithmic distribution, period. We check whether your social presence signals an active artist.
Content Quality
Quality signals determine whether platforms boost or bury your content. We assess media resolution, caption completeness, and whether your content strategy looks intentional or haphazard to the algorithm.
Metadata Health
This is what kills independent artists on streaming platforms. Incomplete ISRC data, missing songwriter credits, wrong genre tags — metadata gaps mean you're invisible to editorial playlists and Spotify's discovery algorithms.
Why timing matters
Check your score
before you release.
The week before a release is the worst time to discover your Spotify profile is incomplete. By then you're already fighting for attention. Fix it first.
Step 1 — Audit
Know where you stand before anyone's listening
Run your Score Check. See exactly which signals are strong and which are dragging your overall number down. The audit tells you what to fix — not in general, but specifically for your profile.
↳ Takes 30 seconds to get your full breakdownStep 2 — Fix
Work through the improvement checklist
DECODED generates a personalized improvement checklist ranked by impact. Each item tells you exactly what to fix and why it matters. Start with Metadata Health — that's where most artists lose the most points.
↳ Checklist included in your free accountStep 3 — Release
Go into your release with a clean score
When your profile is solid, DSPs are more likely to surface your music in algorithmic playlists, editorial discovery queues, and artist radio. You can't control the algorithm — but you can control whether your profile makes it easy for the algorithm to find you.
↳ Then protect your release with the VaultWhat's included
