Nobody sends you a statement for the money you never collected.
IHQ is a team of eight specialists you can message in plain words — manager, rights, lawyer, accountant, A&R, marketing, social and designer. They do the paperwork the business runs on. Free to start.

of the five lines stay open until somebody does the paperwork.
4 separate systems hold that money: distribution, societies, publishing, splits.
8 people do this work at a label. You have been doing it alone.
1 subscription puts all eight of them in your phone.
You ask one of them. The right one answers.
When a question belongs to somebody else on the desk, they hand it over and the colleague opens already briefed. You never explain yourself twice. This is a transcript from inside the product, not a review of it.
“Your manager pulled me in the moment that song got performed live at the wedding, because that choir performance is exactly the kind of thing that should be paying you and right now can't reach you. Here's where we stand: you're not registered with any PRO, you have no publishing admin capturing your worldwide royalties, and the most urgent gap is that there's no split sheet locking in who owns what between you and your producer.”
Nobody asked her to look. The manager passed the thread across, and she arrived knowing the song, the wedding, and the gap.
