Release value
How much has each album, EP or single really earned you? The Release value tab calculates it down to the last crown – for all time, across all platforms and countries, with the development by year and by month.
The Release value tab in Analytics in Artists Bez Labelu adds up the royalties of each release (by UPC/EAN) from the first statement to the latest one. While the Albums table in Overview only shows the selected period, here it is always about the entire time you have been working with us – the ideal view of the long-term value of your catalogue.
Summary cards
At the very top, four cards summarise the whole catalogue: Earned in total is the sum of the royalties of all releases for all time, Streams the total number of streams, Monthly average tells you how much your catalogue brings in on average per month, and Data since shows from which month statements are available.

Release comparison
The table compares all your releases side by side – with the release date, the number of streams, the royalties and, above all, the share of your catalogue's total earnings. At a glance, you can see which release keeps your music going:
| Title | Released | Streams | CZK | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neon | 2023-04 | 812,340 | 24,512.60 | 47.7% |
| Midnight | 2024-10 | 501,220 | 14,830.15 | 28.9% |
| Echo | 2023-02 | 290,450 | 8,115.40 | 15.8% |
| Fog | 2025-06 | 132,200 | 3,914.65 | 7.6% |

Next to the table is the CZK on a single axis chart: All releases share a common axis, so the proportions are honest – the top-earning release has a full bar and the others are measured against it. No visually inflated differences.
Cards with charts
Below the comparison come the cards for individual releases. Each one shows the cover art, the total royalties, the number of streams, the average per month and per year, and a chart of the development over time – switchable between a view by year and by month:

The Years / Months switch answers two different questions: Years show the long-term story of a release, months reveal the detail – for example a jump after a playlist placement or a Christmas peak. Every release that already has income in a statement gets a card, sorted from the highest-earning. When you expand Tracks on this release, you will see how much of that the individual recordings earned.
Below the cards you will also find the Top earning tracks of all time table. Releases that do not yet have any income in a statement do not appear in the overview – the app only tells you how many there are. And if you have music videos in distribution, they appear here as separate releases with a music video label.
What it is good for
Release value is a view of the long-term performance of your catalogue. You will see whether older albums are still earning (the so-called long tail), which release has proved to be a mainstay and how a new release is getting off the ground. Just keep in mind that older releases have had more time to earn – for a fair comparison of performance over a specific period, use Overview with the Plays / day column.
The values are based on your statements, so they match your royalties exactly and also have the same time lag. They are totals across all platforms – you will find the breakdown by individual service in the platforms' analytics and in Overview.
The same view for individual recordings – including totals across releases – is offered by the Track value tab. The whole section is then described in the article Analytics in Artists Bez Labelu.
