DropCue

DropCue is a playlist sharing platform built for music professionals — composers, sync agencies, music supervisors, production music libraries, and record labels. Share branded playlists with clients via secure links, get real-time analytics on every play, leave timestamped feedback directly on the audio waveform, and receive incoming pitches through a built-in music submission inbox.

Built as an affordable alternative to DISCO.ac, ReelCrafter, Songtradr, and Musicbed. Starts at $5/month with annual billing — half the price of DISCO Pro with no add-on fees for analytics or features.

Key features: • Branded share links with password protection, expiring URLs, and download controls • Per-recipient analytics — see who listened, which tracks, and for how long • Timestamped waveform comments for surgical feedback rounds • Auto-grouped alternate mixes (stems and instrumentals nest under parent tracks) • Music submission inbox for receiving briefs from collaborators • AI tools included: BPM detection, key detection, cue descriptions, lyrics transcription, cover art generation, and stem separation • Email campaigns up to 2,000 recipients per send • Professional portfolio page for showcasing your catalog • CSV/Excel metadata import for bulk catalog migration • Document attachments for cue sheets, lyric sheets, and contracts • Upload WAV, MP3, AIFF, FLAC, ALAC, M4A — drag and drop up to 100 files at once

Three plans: Starter ($5/mo annual), Pro ($12/mo annual), and Founding Member ($599 one-time for lifetime Pro access). 7-day free trial on every plan, no credit card required. Used by composers and sync agencies as the modern, lower-cost alternative to DISCO.ac.
