ARTISTS & TALENT MANAGEMENT

Run a roster, not a tab graveyard.

A manager's day is 40 emails, 12 phone calls, 6 contract revisions, 3 royalty statements, and one fire that has to be put out by 5pm. Calisto Pro replaces the spreadsheet roster, the Gmail folder system, the loose contract PDFs, and the "where did I save that promoter's number" problem with a single record per artist where every conversation, contract, royalty, and date lives.

How It Works

Three surfaces. One platform.

Run the roster, run the deals, and run the campaigns when your artists release.

Run the roster

Every artist is a single record. Their deals, contracts, royalties, communication history, EPK, press mentions, and tour dates live in one place. No more cross-referencing spreadsheets, email folders, and shared drives to answer a simple question about your own roster.

Single artist record: deals, docs, royalties, comms, and dates
Public roster widget and EPK pages with download analytics
Per-artist revenue tracking, guarantee history, and leaderboard
Role-based access so agents see their own pipeline and commission
Chain-of-title docs, archived contracts, and recording masters in Box

Run the deals

Signing flow, contract negotiations, and commission tracking per deal. The pipeline runs from scouting through settlement, and every dollar is accounted for before anyone asks where it went.

Visual deal cards from inquiry to executed contract
13-factor settlement engine with branded PDF statements
Per-agent commission splits, tiered structures, and overrides
Advance recoupment with automatic status transitions
Native e-signatures for NDAs, label deals, sync licenses, and work-for-hire
Shared hold links for promoters with venue-scoped availability

Run the campaigns when artists release

When your roster drops new music, tours, or announces appearances, the marketing surface activates. Artist EPK pages, fan newsletters, release campaigns, and booking inquiry forms work together without switching to a separate platform.

Release campaigns: single drops, album rollouts, tour announcements
Fan newsletters and subscriber lists through Echo
Booking inquiry forms that feed directly into the deal pipeline
Press mention monitoring and review aggregation via Reputation
Branded label or manager portal for fan discovery and membership

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Calisto Pro is built for the people who represent artists: management companies, talent agencies, booking agents, music managers, and labels. The platform treats every artist on your roster as a business with its own deal pipeline, contracts, royalties, and communication history. Artists get self-service portal access, but the control center belongs to the manager.

The Deals product turns your roster into a visual pipeline. Each artist or prospect is a deal card that moves through stages you define: Scouted, In Talks, Offer Sent, Signed, Active. Per-deal commission tracking, contract attachment, and automated task generation at each stage keep your signing flow organized without a separate CRM.

The settlement engine calculates the full financial picture for every show: guarantee or door split revenue, pre-commission expense deductions (travel, accommodation, equipment, production), tax presets by jurisdiction, merchandise net revenue, advance reconciliation, deposit application, fee pass-through, and per-agent commissions. Results are stored as formal settlement statements with a multi-step approval workflow and branded PDF export.

Yes. Six royalty types: Mechanical, Performance, Streaming, Sync, SoundExchange, and Neighboring Rights. Each royalty is tracked per composition with ISRC/ISWC identifiers. Enter gross revenue and royalty rate and the net amount is calculated automatically. Seven license types with territory management (Worldwide, North America, Europe, Asia, Latin America, or custom) handle exclusivity, terms, and expiry alerts.

Yes. Every artist on your roster gets access to a self-service portal (Navigator) where they can view bookings, download contracts and day sheets, sign contracts via Calisto Sign, check their tour P&L, track earnings and settlement statements, and message your team directly.

Create named tours with date ranges, link individual bookings as legs with sequencing and reordering, and track automatic P&L rollup per tour. Interactive routing maps, gap analysis for open dates, distance calculations between legs, flight tracking, hotel coordination, and auto-generated branded day sheets are all included.

The extended surface covers self-promotion. Tickets handles ticket sales for shows you produce. POS runs merch tables on tour. Pulse provides yield management for promoter-of-record events. These products activate when you need them and stay out of the way when you do not.

Yes. Calisto includes dedicated importers for SonicBids (artists, EPKs, gigs, messages, applications, payments), SystemOne (roster, bookings, contracts, settlements, contact history), and Overture (artist catalog, deals, tour data, financials). Plus a 7-step CRM import wizard and bulk CSV contact import with field mapping for migrating from any other tool.

Per-agent commission calculation with configurable rates, multi-agent splits, tiered structures, and override commissions for senior agents. Commissions are calculated after pre-commission expense deductions and flow into settlement statements automatically. Every agent on the deal sees their share.

Calisto connects to 40+ payment gateways worldwide including regional processors. Generate payment links from bookings, automate invoicing, track multi-currency settlements, collect deposits upon contract signing, and disburse royalties through your existing payment rails.
