Crunch Digital is an independent technology firm based in Los Angeles, California with a long pedigree in the media & entertainment industry. Crunch offers a full suite of solutions and services to provide a simple, affordable, compliant and a reliable way to use music content. Crunch supports content owners – including record labels and music publishers – by managing the flow of data to and from digital services and other licensees. Crunch also manages data flow for content licensees – digital service providers, fitness companies, multi-channel networks, game companies, app developers and other cutting edge companies – including royalty reporting and payments.
Crunch Digital’s mission is to eliminate the barriers of music licensing and payments, ultimately fueling better revenue flow and reducing operating costs through streamlined workflows.
We created Crunch Digital in 2013 as a new division of Royalty Review Council, the market leader in worldwide digital royalty audits and outsource royalty accounting. Crunch's leadership team brings deep experience and strong relationships. In fall 2017 we launched the Crunch Digital Sandbox program.
In 2022 we launched a first of its kind multi-dimensional online tool for sound recording curation and song publisher clearance that is available as a part of Crunch Digital’s services. With Tempo users can create a list of tracks that they would like to use for their music service, fitness classes, mobile App, or video… and using the platform they can validate whether those tracks are available for use under existing licenses with record labels, music publishers, and performance societies.
