vlisten

Now inviting founding artists

Where we actually listen.

We listened — to artists paid in fractions of a cent, and to listeners tired of being the product — and built vlisten for both sides of the song: artists keep 85% of what they earn, and listening is social again — live sessions, shared songs, real support.

No spam — just an invite when your slot opens.

We did the math

Big streaming ~$3–5 for 1,000 streams — split with labels, paid in fractions of a cent, months later.
vlisten 85% of every sale, tier, and supporter payment — at prices you set. Fans pay you. We take 15%. That's the whole model.

Artists keep 85%

Every stream, sale, tier, and supporter payment sends the artist 85% of what they set — a real cut on real prices, not a fraction of a cent.

Listening, together

Live sessions, shared queues, and taste-matched people. Play a record with a friend across the world, or find the ones who hear music the way you do.

Support that lands

Supporter Mode, fan tiers, song and album sales, merch. Fans put money exactly where it belongs — with the people who made the music.

For listeners

The other side of the song.

Fair to artists is the headline — but the listening itself is the reason you'll stay.

Lossless, for everyone

CD-quality streaming on the free tier — no paywall on sound. Hi-res masters for Supporters.

Closer to your artists

Join an artist's tier for early access to releases, members-only songs and albums, and subscriber discounts on their music.

Take songs apart

The stem mixer isolates vocals, drums, and bass on any track — hear your favorites in ways no other player lets you.

Share into real conversations

Send songs straight into private, encrypted chats — music talk with your people, not performed for a feed.

Describe a vibe

AI playlists from a sentence — “late-night coding”, “rainy-day jazz” — built from the catalog in seconds.

No spammy ads

No ad walls, no interruption every other song. Music first — your listening isn't the product here.

Founding Artists

The first 100 artists shape what this becomes.

We're onboarding a hundred artists before launch — the ones who've felt the streaming math and want a fairer deal. Founding spots come with terms we won't offer again.

  • 90/10 for your first year. Ten points better than standard, while we grow together.
  • A permanent Founding badge. Yours for life, even after the first year ends.
  • Priority support. A real person, fast, whenever you need a hand.
