The New WAVS Creator+ Program: Placement Tracker and Search Analytics
We built WAVS around a simple idea: sample creators deserve better terms than the industry has ever given them.
Ownership, transparency, daily payouts. That’s the foundation.
Over the past few months, we’ve started developing advanced systems and partnerships with upstream service providers, to deliver state of the art sample placement tracking across all major DSPs (Spotify, Apple, YouTube).
We’re also rolling out a new search analytics tool to guide sound selection and keyword choices for future packs.
Starting today, Creator+ is available to all WAVS creators.
What’s included in WAVS Creator+
Creator+ adds four capabilities to your existing WAVS creator account.
The new Placement Tracker monitors your entire collection of samples and notifies you within two weeks when they appear in officially released music on Spotify, YouTube, or Apple Music. We can detect time-stretched and pitch-shifted variations, so we’ll catch placements even when a producer has flipped the sample heavily.
Creator+ Insights are the other power tool in this collection. It provides a real-time look at the data behind what’s trending on WAVS: the genres, moods, and keywords with high search volume + low competition. Instead of guessing what to make next, Creators are working from actual demand data, to make the packs that producers are actively looking for.
Pack Scheduler lets creators upload a pack and set a future release date. Treat your next drop like an album release. Build anticipation, time it strategically, and control the moment it goes live.
Verified Badge places your top artist credits directly on your profile. Producers browsing WAVS can see who you’ve worked with before they hit play. If you’ve worked with any well known artists, that can help you sell more samples.;
Why we built it
Our most successful creators on WAVS don’t upload and wait. They’re paying attention to what performs, analyzing placements, timing their releases, and building a catalog with intent. Creator+ gives them all the tools they need, inside your account.
Pricing
Creator+ is currently available for $12.99/month, or $129/year. Cancel anytime. No hidden fees.
Existing creators can upgrade directly from their dashboard. If you’re not on WAVS yet and you want access to Creator+ alongside the full marketplace, applications are open now.
