Get a signed-ready split sheet in minutes — no lawyer, no PRO paperwork, no chasing signatures across cities. Built for independent artists and producers, not just major labels.
KES 499 per split sheet, paid securely with M-PESA. No account needed to generate and download.
Just the basics for now — you'll add writers and set exact splits on the next page.
For years, split sheets were an afterthought — shared in group chats, scribbled on paper, or created long after a song was finished. Labels could rely on lawyers and administrators. Independent creators often relied on memory.
Powered by MAIQCHECK, the Split Sheet Generator gives you a proper, industry-standard split sheet in minutes: add your song, add your collaborators, define exact ownership percentages, and download a signable PDF. Every split sheet is built on the ownership and metadata principles that power MAIQCHECK, creating a structured record that's ready to sign today and ready to support your catalogue tomorrow.
Built for solo artists and small teams, not just labels with legal departments.
No PRO or CMO paperwork to learn — just the details of your song.
A real, properly formatted document your collaborators can actually sign.
The Splitsheet Generator gets your document signed. MAIQCHECK is where you manage your whole catalogue — and members pay less for every ratification, plus unlock Express Ratification: automatic signature requests by email via SignWell, so collaborators can sign from anywhere, no printing, no chasing.
Express Ratification sends signature requests straight to every collaborator's email via SignWell. They sign from their phone, wherever they are — no printing, no time zones to coordinate around, no manual chasing.
See Express RatificationMusic ownership begins with knowing who created the work. MAIQCHECK LinQ™ connects every contributor to a verified AKA identity, replacing typed names with trusted creator records — laying the foundation for a verifiable source of truth for African music IP.
How LinQ™ worksOnce every signatory has signed, the record is permanently locked. No contributor — not even MAIQCHECK — can alter it. Every ratified split sheet becomes an immutable record of ownership, preserving the agreement exactly as it was made.
Why permanence mattersA feature I did two years ago started streaming again out of nowhere. Because we'd signed a split sheet the night we recorded it, splitting the publishing was a five-minute conversation instead of a three-week argument.
I produce for six or seven artists a month. I stopped trying to remember verbal agreements and just generate the sheet before the session ends.
Express Ratification meant I could see exactly who still hadn't signed instead of texting four people to ask. Worth joining for that alone.

Manual ratification works. Express Ratification removes the part everyone dreads — chasing physical signatures from people who aren't in the same room, or the same country.
Every credited writer gets a signature request via SignWell the moment ratification starts — no manual sending required.
See exactly who's signed and who hasn't, in real time — instead of texting people to ask.
Collaborators sign from their phone or laptop, wherever they are — no printing, no scanning, no courier.
Music today rarely happens in one room. Express Ratification is designed for the way songs actually get made — features recorded remotely, producers in another city, writers who've never met in person.
Anyone can type a name into a split sheet. MAIQCHECK verifies who that name actually belongs to, so the person listed as a contributor is the same person who signs — every time.
Register your songs, lock your splits, and own your sound — before a dispute forces you to prove what should have been documented from day one.
A deep dive into the document, the problem it solves, and how we've tried to make it simple without cutting corners on what makes it real.
Every great song begins with creativity. Every successful song becomes intellectual property. Between those two moments lies a handful of questions that every song must eventually answer.
Who owns it?
Who created it?
Can those claims be trusted?
How does that ownership create value?
A split sheet answers the first question. MAIQCHECK exists to answer all four.
The Split Sheet Generator is your first step into that journey. It documents the people behind a song, the contributions they made, and the ownership percentages they have agreed to share. Once signed, that agreement becomes the foundation upon which publishing, licensing, royalties, catalogue management, and long-term rights are built.
At MAIQCHECK, we believe:
Those beliefs shape every product we build. The sections below follow the same journey every song takes through MAIQCHECK.
Every song begins with a clear agreement. A split sheet records every Author, Composer, Arranger, Producer, and Publisher, together with the ownership percentage each person has agreed to receive. Once signed, it becomes the agreed record of who created the work and how ownership is shared.
That record becomes increasingly valuable as a song grows:
Royalties
Publishing
Licensing
Synchronisation
Catalogue valuation
Every opportunity begins with knowing who owns what. While a split sheet isn't a substitute for legal advice on complex publishing arrangements, it remains the industry standard for documenting ownership at the point of creation.
For decades, documenting ownership was largely a manual exercise. Labels relied on lawyers, business affairs teams, and administrators to prepare agreements, chase signatures, and maintain records. Independent creators rarely had those resources.
Split sheets were forgotten. Buried in WhatsApp conversations. Lost in email threads. Replaced by verbal agreements. By the time success arrived, ownership conversations had become significantly more complicated.
MAIQCHECK removes that friction by making professional ownership documentation accessible to every creator — without compromising the standards the music industry depends on.
| Traditional approach | Purpose |
|---|---|
| CMOs | Collect royalties and administer rights. They don't establish ownership between collaborators. |
| DIY | Verbal agreements, screenshots, emails, or incomplete paperwork. |
| MAIQCHECK | Document ownership, verify identities, ratify agreements, and preserve trusted records from the very beginning. |
Music credits belong to people — not names typed into a form. Powered by MAIQCHECK LinQ™, every Author, Composer, Arranger, Producer, and Publisher is connected to a unique verified identity that follows them across every collaboration. The creator credited today is the same verified creator who signs tomorrow.
Because every verifiable music catalogue begins with verifiable creator identities.
One verified AKA identity per creator, matched every time they're credited or asked to sign.
Documentation only creates value when it can be trusted. That's why every MAIQCHECK record follows a structured ratification process and, once complete, becomes immutable.
Generate a professional split sheet, collect physical signatures, and upload the completed agreement to MAIQCHECK. Available through both the Split Sheet Generator and MAIQCHECK.
Send secure digital signature requests to every contributor through SignWell. Track signing progress in real time and automatically finalise the agreement once every contributor has signed. Available exclusively through MAIQCHECK.
Every royalty. Every publishing agreement. Every licence. Every synchronisation deal. Every catalogue valuation. Every future opportunity. They all begin with trusted ownership records.
The Split Sheet Generator is where documentation begins. MAIQCHECK is where that documentation becomes a connected ownership and metadata infrastructure designed to support creators throughout the lifetime of their catalogue.
Today's split sheet becomes tomorrow's catalogue. Tomorrow's catalogue becomes tomorrow's opportunity.
Create your split sheet today. Build your catalogue tomorrow.
Own Your Sound.
Every collaboration is different. Whether you're documenting your first song or managing an established catalogue, we're here to help you document ownership with confidence.
