Get More with Songview

Songview was developed by ASCAP and BMI, the nation’s two largest Performance Rights Organizations, to provide music users with the first comprehensive, reliable and consistent data on songwriters, composers, music publishers and copyright ownership shares for the vast majority of songs licensed in the United States.

With the launch of Songview, ASCAP and BMI are working together to make copyright data more accessible and transparent for all of our partners.

How
It Works

This innovative new system ingests song ownership information from each PRO, processes and reconciles that information based on agreed-upon rules, and then sends the reconciled data back out to BMI and ASCAP’s public, searchable databases.
