Analytics

Overview

Revelator’s Analytics suite gives you a clear view of how your catalog is performing across digital services and markets. You can discover which artists, releases, and tracks are most popular, see which streaming platforms are driving your engagement, and evaluate revenue streams over time. By consolidating data in one place, Revelator Analytics helps you make informed decisions about your music business strategy.

Feature Breakdown

The Analytics section is divided into several tabs, each focusing on a different aspect of performance:

1. Consumption – Understand streams, downloads, and overall consumption trends.

2. Engagement – Delve into skip rates, completions, saves, and other listener behaviors.

3. Trends – Track changes in streams, top-performing releases, and distribution by DSP over time.

4. Revenue – Analyze your earnings, see which services generate the most income, and break it down by month or custom date ranges.

5. Geo – Explore where your listeners are located worldwide.

The Analytics section provides in-depth metrics, divided into the following tabs:

• View detailed metrics such as Streams, Revenue, and Consumption.

• Use filters to view streams by DSP, Market, Label, or Artist.

• Track performance trends over different time periods.

• Explore consumption breakdowns by source, subscription type, and discovery type.

Who Is It For?

• Labels and Managers – Monitor entire rosters, compare artists, and plan release strategies based on performance insights.

• Independent Artists and DIY Musicians – Track daily or weekly changes in consumption, see which DSPs are most effective, and optimize promotional activities.

Real-World Scenario #1 A record label manager wants to see how total streams evolve day-to-day for multiple artists. By checking the Consumption tab and applying relevant filters (e.g., exclude TikTok, focus on Spotify), they can quickly see total streams, top tracks, and DSP breakdown to inform their next marketing push.

Real-World Scenario #2 An independent artist is planning a new release and wants to analyze the best day of the week for promotional campaigns. They use the Trends tab to spot daily or weekly spikes, focusing on the top DSPs and geographical areas where they’ve historically performed well.
