StreamICan
Frequently Asked Questions

Questions, answered.

Everything about getting in, distributing, and using The Pulse.

Getting In

Why is StreamICan invite-only?

Growing by referral keeps the community small and the data meaningfully indie. Every artist here was vouched for by someone already using it.

I don't know anyone on StreamICan. What do I do?

Join the waitlist from the Contact page. We open new seats regularly and work through the list roughly in order.

How long is the waitlist, typically?

It varies with how many seats open that month. Referred artists skip the queue entirely, which is the fastest way in if you know someone.

Distribution

How fast will my music go live?

Most releases are reviewed within 48 hours. Individual stores then typically take one to seven days to make it live.

Do you take a cut of my streaming royalties?

No. On every plan that includes distribution, you keep 100% of what your music earns from streaming.

The Pulse & Data

How is the Momentum Score calculated?

It blends stream velocity, playlist adds and drop-offs, and social engagement signal into a single 0 to 100 score, recalculated daily.

Where does the underlying data come from?

We aggregate publicly available and licensed data across 140+ sources, including major streaming platforms, social platforms, and radio monitoring services.

Can I use The Pulse without distributing through StreamICan?

Yes, Pulse Free tracks your existing catalog regardless of who distributes it, with a 90-day history window.

Pricing & Billing

When does billing start?

Only once your invite arrives and you activate a paid plan. Waitlist and referral requests are free.

Can I switch plans later?

Yes, at any time. Your new plan applies at your next renewal date.
