# Where Chronatum lives

**Chronatum, on the tools you already use.**

A concept look at where Chronatum could live as one more transparency field beside the credits, on the platforms musicians and distributors already use — dropped in exactly where each one already keeps provenance. These screens are illustrative; the validation underneath is real.

**Concept mockup — not a real integration or partnership.** Concept mockups — illustrative only, not affiliated with or endorsed by the platforms shown. Field names mirror each platform's real interface; values are fictional.

Each mock adds one row — **Chronatum · Evidence account · Verified binding** — beside the provenance fields the platform already has, and the row runs live: add one credentialed audio file, or pair older audio with its .poh, and the field verifies it right here in the mock.

## Distributors

### DistroKid — Upload · song details

DistroKid added an AI Credits disclosure for AI-generated parts. That credit is declared; Chronatum sits beside it as the recorded account of the work that can back it. A recorded process account, shown alongside the AI Credits disclosure — the transparency behind the credit. (Illustrative — not affiliated with or endorsed by DistroKid.)

### TuneCore — Create release · Credits

TuneCore requires a performer, a producer and a songwriter on every release. Chronatum adds a scoped evidence account for the captured production session, shown alongside them. (Illustrative — not affiliated with or endorsed by TuneCore.)

### CD Baby — Title Overview · Songwriter Bank

CD Baby's Songwriter Bank already captures authorship, splits and PRO affiliation. Chronatum adds a signed account of supported process evidence and its limitations. (Illustrative — not affiliated with or endorsed by CD Baby.)

## Storefront

### Bandcamp — Track editor · Publishing Rights

Bandcamp added Publishing Rights fields in 2026 — ISWC, ISRC, songwriters. Chronatum is the next identifier we'd add to that row: a signed process-evidence account bound to the track. (Illustrative — not affiliated with or endorsed by Bandcamp.)

## Streaming

### Spotify for Artists — Song credits

In 2026 Spotify shipped AI credits via DDEX — and the credit is self-declared. Chronatum adds the recorded process behind the track, shown alongside the credits Spotify reads from your distributor: the transparency that can back what's declared. (Illustrative — not affiliated with or endorsed by Spotify.)

### NetEase 音乐人 — 上传歌曲 · 创作人信息 (Upload · creator credits)

To claim 原创 (Original), NetEase already makes you upload stems and a DAW project screenshot. Chronatum could add a privacy-reduced, signed evidence account without handing over stems or a project file; the receiving platform would still apply its own authorship policy.

## Try it live

This is a live demo. Have a proof of your own? [Verify a proof](/validate)

Audio is only fingerprint-checked against the proof, in a short-lived store that clears itself automatically — never reused or added to anything.

## Fits the standards you already run

**Creation context inside the standards, not a new silo.**

Chronatum adds a music-specific evidence account inside C2PA / Content Credentials: observations, inferences, declarations, conflicts, and anything unseen kept unknown. Platforms decide how to use that context. Complementary, never a compliance certificate.

- **System observation** — Supported activity directly exposed by the DAW.
- **Inference / declaration** — Disclosed with its actual basis and context.
- **Unverifiable** — Kept unknown, never silently converted into a verdict.

**EU AI Act · Article 50.** Machine-readable AI marking applies from Aug 2, 2026. Chronatum can add creation context beside machine-readable AI markings; it does not establish compliance by itself.

> Chronatum attests its signature, the exact audio binding, and the scoped evidence account it received. It does not independently certify authorship or that the music is AI-free.
