Roadmap
The Journey
This is what we have built, what we are building now, and where the community is taking us next. Every station is a promise kept. Every line ahead is a plan in motion.
Route Map
Stations & Milestones
Foundation
The Pledge
Our founding promise is locked in: every charge you see is the real cost we pay to run the service. No markup, no platform cut, no hidden fees — permanently.
Access
Works on Every Device
Music United works on every device you own — phone, tablet, laptop. Add it to your home screen straight from your browser, no app store needed, and your music is always there.
Launch
Alpha Release
The platform is live and open to the world. Artists are publishing, listeners are discovering, and the first community of members is growing every day.
Community
Road Map Forum
Members submit ideas and vote on what comes next. The most popular suggestions go straight into the build — the community steers this roadmap, not us.
Intelligence
Artist Insights
Every stream, download, and listener in one place — daily trends, global reach, per-track rankings, storage breakdown, social reach, and a live activity feed. Real growth, real numbers, all yours.
Infrastructure
Free Delivery for Every Artist
Streaming and downloads cost artists nothing. Cloudflare's Bandwidth Alliance with Backblaze eliminates bandwidth charges entirely — your music plays fast, sounds great, and costs you nothing to share with the world.
Growth
Genre Topics
Artists tag their music with genres like Indie, Electronic, and Acoustic. Listeners browse by mood and discover new sounds every day — all powered by the community's own catalogue.
Openness
Open to the World
Your artist profile and every release is discoverable — search engines, apps, and smart assistants can all find your music. When someone looks for you, Music United makes sure they get there.
Performance
Global Reach
Your music will load fast no matter where your listeners are — London, Lagos, or Los Angeles. Cloudflare's global edge network brings your music closer to every listener on the planet.
Experience
Live Broadcast
Artists can go live. Open your laptop, create a broadcast event, and stream straight to listeners in real time — whether it is a DJ set, a live performance, or just you and a microphone. No uploading, no delay.
Commerce
Audio Marketplace
Listeners buy tracks at the real cost of the file — pick phone quality for pennies or studio quality for the full experience. Every penny goes to the artist. Your purchases are always yours.
Experience
Live Events & Ticketing
Artists create their own events — gigs, listening parties, meet-ups — and sell digital tickets directly through the platform. Tickets are tied to your account, shown on your phone, and verified at the door with a live scan. No paper, no middlemen, no booking fees.
Reach
Social Connectors & Distribution
Connect your socials and push your music out from one place. Mixcloud is already live — one click to cross-post. More platforms are on the way, so your music reaches everyone from a single home base.
Everywhere
Publish Everywhere
Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Amazon, Tidal, Deezer — every place where music lives. Publish everywhere from one place. Your catalogue, your rules, no percentage taken.
Commerce
Zero Transaction Fees
We are working to replace per-sale processing charges with a fixed monthly deal — so that every single penny of every purchase reaches the artist, with nothing skimmed at the till.
Together
You Decide
The highest-voted ideas from the community decide what gets built next. This is not our roadmap — it is yours.
Destination
Where This Line Ends
“Every feature on this roadmap was chosen by the people who use this platform. You tell us what you need, you vote, and we build it.”
