The Company That Collects the World’s Songs - One Split at a Time

Duetti
Duetti is a New York-based music fintech that buys catalogs and royalty streams from independent artists, giving creators upfront cash for their recorded music and publishing rights without debt or recoupment. Founded in 2022 by former Tidal COO Lior Tibon and ex-Apple Music executive Christopher Nolte, the company pairs catalog financing with active distribution, marketing and playlist support, positioning itself as a catalog partner built specifically for the long tail of independent creators rather than major-label superstars.
