Lock the release.
The release-readiness app for independent music. Organize audio, artwork, splits, agreements, signatures, and metadata into one locked packet — and lock it yourself before you ship.
Free to start — or have us lock it for you.
The song is done. The release isn't.
Most releases are finished creatively long before they're ready legally, financially, or administratively. Splits live in DMs. The producer agreement never got signed. The artwork is the wrong size. Metadata is in three spreadsheets. Release day arrives — and nobody has the full packet.
Disputes
Unsigned splits become arguments once the money shows up.
Delays
Missing artwork, metadata, or paperwork pushes the release back.
Lost trust
Managers, producers, and artists lose confidence when the process feels messy.
Done-for-you release readiness.
Voro powers Core City Release Ops: a managed service that prepares your release packet for you. Send the release materials — we organize the files, validate splits, prepare paperwork, track signatures, complete metadata, and export the final packet.
You send the release materials.
We lock the packet.
You ship with confidence.
Most singles are locked within 48 hours.

This is what you get back — one clean, exportable record of a release that's actually ready. Nothing missing, nothing unsigned, nothing to chase on release day.

One release packet. Locked when complete.
Voro is the release-readiness system behind the service. Every song gets a checklist, a workspace, a document trail, and an export packet. A release only locks when every required piece is present, approved, signed, and complete.
Files
Master, clean, instrumental, stems, and artwork.
People
Collaborators, roles, PRO, IPI, and contact info.
Splits
Master and publishing totals must equal 100%.
Documents
Split sheets, producer and work-for-hire agreements.
Metadata
ISRC, UPC, credits, copyright, and publishing.
Packet
Export cleanly for distributor, manager, label, or archive.
The lock gate
A release can't be marked ready until the business side is clean. Voro shows the blockers in real time and only locks when every required piece is done.
- Artwork uploaded and approved
- Audio files present
- Collaborators added
- Master splits total 100%
- Publishing splits total 100%

Green means ready. Red means risk.
Made for the people who ship music.
Producers / Studios
Stop chasing split confirmations, file versions, and signatures after the session.
Managers
See what’s missing across every artist before release day.
Small labels
Standardize release readiness across every track, artist, and rollout.
Artists
Keep one clean packet for every song you ship.
Not a distributor. Not a spreadsheet.
Voro is the missing checkpoint before release day. Keep your distributor, your split tool, and your drive — Voro is the layer that makes the whole release ready.

Too heavy for active release prep

Questions, answered.
Is Voro self-serve?
Yes. Sign up free and lock releases yourself in the app — build the release, validate splits, generate and sign paperwork, complete metadata, and export the packet. Prefer it handled? Core City Release Ops does it for you.
What if I want it done for me?
That’s Release Ops. Send us the release materials and we organize the files, validate splits, prepare and track paperwork, complete metadata, and deliver a locked packet — most singles within 48 hours.
Can I still use DistroKid, TuneCore, CD Baby, or UnitedMasters?
Yes. Voro sits before distribution. Use any distributor you like — Voro gets the release ready and exports a clean packet before you upload.
What does “lock the release” mean?
A release becomes lockable only when every required item — artwork, audio, splits at 100%, signed documents, and metadata — is complete. Locking produces a clean, exportable release packet.
Is this legal advice?
No. Voro helps organize release information and prepare attorney-reviewed template paperwork. Templates are starting points, not legal advice — for legal decisions, consult a qualified attorney.
