Followers, views and every post on five platforms

Stop jumping between five dashboards.

Ask in your own words. Your assistant picks the right Music24 tool: it reads your numbers, makes your release assets, plans the rollout, schedules the posts and builds your SmartLinks and pre-save pages. Before anything goes public, uses credits or deletes something, it shows you what will happen and waits for your yes.

What you can ask

Get a token

A few things stay in Music24, where only you can do them. Your assistant can tell you where to find each one.

What stays in the app

A <code>GET</code> reads. A <code>POST</code> writes: it follows or unfollows. Add the name to <code>{trpc}/</code>, for example <code>{example}</code>.

Endpoints

Music24 also serves REST routes under <code>{v1}</code>, described in <code>{openapi}</code>. They answer only to partner keys. A personal token gets <code>401 UNAUTHORIZED</code> there, so use the endpoints on this page.

Limits and errors

Run your release from Claude or ChatGPT with the Music24 MCP server: make assets, plan the rollout, schedule posts. Every plan. The API comes with Label.

API and MCP server for music marketing

Sign-in and access

The consent screen needs a Music24 browser session. If you get signed out during the flow, sign in again and start the connection again.

Log in before you connect

Any client that speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP with OAuth works. It reads the two well-known endpoints, registers itself (RFC 7591), and runs the authorization-code + PKCE (S256) flow. Ask for <code>music24:read music24:write</code> to let it work for you, or for <code>music24:read</code> alone to let it only read. No scope means <code>music24:read</code>.

Set up your AI client

Your assistant gets {count} Music24 tools, grouped the way the app is. A Read tool only looks. A Change tool works in your workspace. Asks first means it shows you a preview and waits for your yes.

Everything your assistant can do

How changes work

A cover that sounds like the song.

The stores want the cover to show the title and the artist name, and nothing that looks like an advert: no web address, no price, no “out now”. You can add any text here, and the tool tells you when a store can refuse it.

Good to know before you download.

Your next song needs a face. Make it now.

Cover art your song deserves. Ready in minutes.

Make cover art that the stores accept: a picture, your title and your name at 3000 × 3000 px. Free, in your browser, no design skills needed.

Free Song Artwork Maker — Cover Art in Minutes | Music24

Say what you see. Music24 makes AI pictures from your title, your lyrics and the mood of the song. No credits.

The free download carries a small Music24 mark. A plan removes it, on your cover and on your videos.

Stories, countdowns, lyric videos and the release plan follow the look of your cover.

The cover is the start. Music24 does the rest of the release.

Choose from 100 pictures made for music, or upload your own photo. A plain colour works too.

Your title and your name are placed for you. Pick one of 9 fonts and drag the words where you want them.

Grain, a neon frame or a light leak. Then download the 3000 px file for your distributor.

From a title to a finished cover.
