Songpact Launches in India

Songpact Launches in India: Fast, Transparent and Accessible Music Contracts for Creators

India’s music industry is experiencing significant growth. Streaming has transformed how people listen to music, Indian artists are building audiences globally, and the country is now one of the world’s fastest-growing music markets, with more than 185 million music streamers and continued double-digit annual growth.

However, while the music landscape has evolved, the contract process behind it has not. Many deals are still shaped by delays, informal arrangements, unclear documents or expensive contract support. This can leave creators unprotected when important decisions are being made.

On 10 November 2025, Songpact launched in India with one clear mission: to make professional music contracts fast, fair and accessible for every creator, not just the top 1%.

A More Accessible Contracting Experience

Throughout my professional journey, I’ve always endeavoured to make legal assistance and guidance available to all types of creators, across different stages of their careers and economic strata”, says Priyanka Khimani, Co-Founder and Strategic Advisor at Songpact.

“India is a diverse and large country, and technology is one of our biggest assets when it comes to serving the community at scale. Songpact coming to India will be an affordable, pocket-friendly solution that will enable artists and their teams to create, negotiate and manage their everyday contracts.”

Explaining how the platform works, Khimani continues:

“Instead of endless mark-ups of Word documents, users answer clear, straightforward questions in-platform about the commercial terms, with easy-to-follow explainers along the way to create and negotiate a draft contract in minutes.”

Once terms are finalised, Songpact automatically generates a robust, plain-English contract, which can then be e-signed and securely stored within the same platform. Songpact is also available at any time, offering contract support outside traditional office hours.

Supporting a Modern Global Music Ecosystem

“The rest of the music industry has adapted and evolved, with cutting-edge tools for live, distribution, marketing and management, but throughout the world, the music contract process has remained exactly the same for decades. We are changing that. Songpact is not just about contracts. It is about empowering creators with access, knowledge, confidence and a sense of fairness. It levels the playing field.” – Nick Weaser, Co-Founder and CEO of Songpact.

1Songpact will be available in India through tiered subscription plans. This includes a free-to-join option with pay-as-you-go credits, and paid plans starting at an introductory price of ₹1,999/month, where users receive a bundle of discounted credits that accumulate over time.

A Growing Global Presence

India is the latest market in Songpact’s international rollout, following launches in the UK, Australia and South Africa.

“We are incredibly proud to bring Songpact to India,” adds Weaser. “It is one of the world’s most dynamic and burgeoning music markets, and home to extraordinary creative talent. But like everywhere else, the contracting process is archaic and expensive. Songpact removes that barrier and makes professional music contracts accessible to everyone.”
