SongEstate monitors the public record for the deaths, filings, and disputes that push royalty-generating catalogs into succession limbo, alerting investors the moment a catalog loses its steward.
An investor-facing data product. Public records only. Built for buyers. We never contact heirs.
Based on SongEstate's internal review of 20 high-profile music estates, 12 of which produced succession leads.
Catalogs change hands in the quiet months after a death, during probate, or inside a family dispute. We watch those moments and tell you first.
Deaths, probate filings, heir disputes, and stalled administrations: the public events that signal a catalog has lost its steward.
Each alert is checked against public records and linked to its evidence, so you can diligence it yourself.
Tier 1 flashes for the highest-conviction events. A weekly digest for everything else. You get only what you asked for.
Real-time flashes for the events that cannot wait, a weekly digest for everything else, and evidence attached to all of it.

Every succession event that matters, once a week. New-lead summaries with evidence links, in one sitting.
Probate filings, court dockets, press reporting, obituaries, and public rights registries. Every alert links its sources.
If you acquire, administer, or finance music catalogs, this is your early-warning system.

A standing watchlist of succession events across royalty marketplaces.
In our review of twenty high-profile music estates, the majority spent months or years with no one clearly in charge of the catalog. Royalties pooled, exploitation froze, and families fought in public. The investors who bought in bought early.
The valuable moment is between the triggering event and the resolution. That is what we flag.
Filings, dockets, and obituaries are public long before a deal is announced. Every alert links its sources.
Beyond the famous estates, overlooked catalogs change hands quietly. We surface the succession events nobody is watching.
Probate filings, court dockets, press reporting, obituaries, and public rights registries. Every alert comes from the public record.
Each alert names its sources with links, so your diligence starts where our research ends.
