An AI wrote the tool that expands what AI agents can do. Only check: a human reads the diff before it ships.
We open-sourced iyke in May. It grew from 8 tools to 76 in 3 unplanned months.

Your AI can read your royalty data. But can it explain your label's own rules, things like your default split when a contract does not spell it out?
Ask Roy now has a knowledge base for that. Teach it once.

One T-shirt can outsell 11,000 Spotify streams. But that income stays yours only if you own your name first. https://t.co/7WehULIUT5 #MusicRoyalties#MusicBusiness
A song can rack up thousands of streams and pay its rights holder $0. Cause: a missing or mismatched ISRC/ISWC code. Here are 3 checks to find the leak in your catalog: https://t.co/f9yPoTEtPW #MusicRoyalties
A 6-second drum solo from 1969 has been sampled 5,000+ times. Burna Boy sampled Toni Braxton and kept just 10% of his own song. Permission, credit, compensation; that's the rule. https://t.co/mO2ermlbrT #MusicRoyalties
BMI, ASCAP, MLC: three different file formats. None match your catalog automatically.

Rivals to fans, friends to each other. King Sunny Ade and Ebenezer Obey pushed juju music forward, one album at a time. https://t.co/CMAAfHYMSe #MusicHistory
Springsteen sold his catalog. The Weeknd used his as $1B loan collateral. Swift spent 6 years buying hers back.
Streaming pays for plays, while ownership pays for everything after.

#MusicCatalog
Every DSP wants a delivery package built to its own spec.
Building it by hand, per store, is where indie submissions go to die.
https://t.co/pNmzkznd6a auto-generates it and tracks delivery status per DSP via FUGA.

#MusicDistribution
Streaming is 60% of music revenue. The rest; live, vinyl, sync, merch, D2F mostly goes uncollected.
One channel isn't a strategy. It's a single point of failure.

King Sunny Ade and Ebenezer Obey were friends. Their fans didn't know that.
The "rivalry" pushed both to keep innovating โ until one landed a Grammy nod.

Work registration status tracked per song. CWR files generated automatically for PRO submission.
No more spreadsheet tracking. No more hand-formatting files for ASCAP, BMI, PRS.
The paperwork nobody wants to do is now automatic. https://t.co/zdErovs4rv
#MusicPublishing
A song can rack up thousands of streams and still pay you nothing.
Usually it's a missing or mismatched ISRC or ISWC.

"Top 3 tracks by royalties in the last 12 months?" โ a ranked list, then the royalty-by-asset table: ISRCs, streams, each track's share. No filters, no CSV export.
Honest bit: it's in beta. Sharpest on whole-catalog questions and named windows. Vague relative dates are the edge we're tightening โ but for the questions people actually ask, it's faster than any dashboard.
Amapiano didn't stop being South African just because it started charting in Lagos and London.
Streaming made music borderless. It didn't make it placeless.

Streaming turned song catalogs into a bond-like asset class. Predictable cash flows, while utilizing royalty history as collateral.
$500M for Springsteen. The same math works for Nigerian music once the data is clean enough to price.
