  2B. Interactive Tools and Calculators

  This Site may offer interactive tools, calculators, or assessment features (collectively, “Tools”) designed to provide general estimates related to music licensing, copyright exposure, or potential fine ranges.

  • Estimates only. All outputs generated by these Tools are estimates based on generalized assumptions, publicly available settlement data, and statutory damage ranges under US copyright law. They do not constitute legal advice, financial advice, or a guarantee of any specific outcome.
  • Not a substitute for legal counsel. If you have received a demand letter from a performing rights organization (ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, or any other), are involved in or anticipate litigation, or need to assess your actual legal exposure, you should consult a qualified copyright attorney. Do not rely on calculator outputs in any legal proceeding.
  • Assumptions may not apply to your situation. Calculator estimates are based on typical industry patterns and may not reflect your specific business circumstances, location, music usage, or enforcement history.
  • Data submitted through Tools. Information you enter into any calculator or Tool on this Site may be collected and stored for research, content development, and editorial purposes. We do not sell individual submission data. Aggregate, anonymized data may be published as industry research.
  • Estimates apply per location unless otherwise stated. Multi-location businesses may face different aggregate exposure than what is shown.

       2C. Music Licensing Cost Calculator — Methodology

The Music Licensing Cost Savings Calculator on this Site generates estimates based on the following methodology and assumptions:

PRO Cost Estimates Base rates are derived from published rate schedules and documented settlement data from the four major U.S. performing rights organizations. Estimates are calculated per location using business size as the primary variable:

Each additional zone adds approximately 28% to the per-location base cost. Total PRO cost is multiplied by number of locations.

Important caveats: PRO rates vary by business type. SESAC negotiates privately and does not publish standard rates. GMR is the newest PRO and publicly documented rates are limited. These figures are realistic planning estimates, not guaranteed quotes.

Licensed Music Provider Cost Set at $37/month ($444/year) per location, based on Soundtrack Your Brand’s published pricing as of 2026. Other providers range from $19–$45/month. Soundtrack is used as a representative mid-market benchmark.

Savings Calculation Estimated annual savings = total estimated PRO cost minus licensed service annual cost. Three-year savings multiplies annual savings by three with no inflation adjustment.
