What is hype.kit?
A release strategist that works from your own data. Connect your music and hype.kit reads what is actually happening with your audience and your scene, then hands you a dated plan: what to do, in what order, by when, who it is aimed at, and the words already written. Not a dashboard to interpret. A plan to work through.
What actually arrives when I sign up?
Seven days of everything, with no card. Your brand narrative, an Audience Snapshot with your fan archetypes, the full dated plan across all six pillars, and Trending For You running live. At the end of the seven days you either subscribe or drop to Free, where the narrative and snapshot stay and you keep one signal a fortnight.
What are the six pillars?
Setup & Readiness, which covers the registrations and deadlines that pay you later and applies to new releases. Then Pitching, Organic Content, Paid Strategy, Direct to Fan and Global Growth. Live and touring is next.
Do I get an EPK and artwork?
Yes, on any paid plan. The EPK creator builds your press kit from the profile and catalogue hype.kit already has, and branded assets generates release artwork on your own brand. Both are paid features, not part of the free tier.
Does it still work when I have nothing coming out?
That is half of what it is for. Between releases hype.kit works the catalogue you already have, tells you when a track starts moving without you, names a market you have never worked, and surfaces anniversaries, re-promotions and sync windows.
Is this a playlist pitching service?
No. No placements, no stream buying, no guaranteed virality. Anyone selling you those is selling you a number rather than an audience.
Is it just a chatbot?
No. What sits underneath is encoded industry knowledge: real deadlines, real submission routes, real market rules, checked and dated. Ask a general chatbot how to pitch a UK tastemaker and it will confidently recommend an Australian conference. The captions and pitches hype.kit drafts for you are AI-generated and meant as a starting point in your own voice, and we label them that way every time.
