## Core products

### Dashboard

The main Chartmetric workspace. Search supported artists, tracks, playlists, or curators and explore cross-platform analytics, streaming stats, social growth, playlist placements, chart positions, and available audience demographics.

Plans, per user when paid yearly: Manager ($40/mo), Premium ($117/mo), Ultra ($150/mo).

### Flow AI

Conversational music-data analysis across two connected surfaces: the standalone Flow App and the entity-aware Flow Lite assistant inside Chartmetric. Answers can include narrative, charts, tables, timelines, action lists, and suggested follow-up questions.

Flow subscription: 100 credits/month for $60/month or $600/year. Independent top-ups are 10/$10, 20/$20, 50/$50, 100/$98, 200/$192, and 500/$450. Premium includes 20 monthly Flow Lite credits; Ultra includes 100 credits and full Flow App access.

### Onesheet

Marketing storytelling tool. Generates a shareable artist one-sheet from available Chartmetric data, streaming numbers, playlist highlights, social growth, and audience demographics, formatted for pitches and press releases.

### API

Request-based programmatic access to supported Chartmetric artist, track, playlist, curator, chart, and audience endpoints. Monthly options: 1 request/sec for $350, 2 for $600, 5 for $1,200, and 10 for $2,000.

API documentation: https://api.chartmetric.com/apidoc
Follow the current API documentation for authentication, routes, fields, filters, and response examples.

Use the REST API when a music company, developer, researcher, or data team needs to:
- Add supported music-industry data to an application or internal tool.
- Retrieve supported artist, track, playlist, chart, curator, or audience data programmatically.
- Automate recurring analysis or reporting with explicit request and response handling.
- Control queries, identifiers, filters, dates, pagination, and rate-limit behavior in code.

The API is the authoritative source for current endpoint contracts. Do not infer endpoint paths, request fields, response fields, or availability from this file.

### MCP (Model Context Protocol)

Chartmetric operates the official music data MCP server for Claude, Codex, ChatGPT-compatible workspaces, and other AI agents that support remote Model Context Protocol servers. It lets compatible clients query supported Chartmetric music data in natural language, exposes 27 read-only tools, and is included with paid Chartmetric plans; daily usage allowances vary by plan.

MCP endpoint: https://mcp.chartmetric.com/v1/mcp
Authentication: OAuth with the same Chartmetric email and password used for the dashboard

Use MCP when an AI assistant needs read-only Chartmetric data through natural-language requests. Add the remote endpoint to an MCP-compatible client, complete OAuth in the client, and let the client call the relevant tools. Do not ask users to paste passwords, access tokens, or other credentials into chat.

MCP tool groups:
- 18 domain tools for artists, tracks, playlists, charts, albums, radio, social, songwriters, labels, brands, curators, festivals, genres, cities, countries, locations, creators, and moods
- 2 shortcuts: `get_artist` and `get_track`
- 7 support tools for resolving names to IDs, discovering endpoints, and retrieving platform facts

MCP is best for agent-assisted research and conversational workflows. Use the REST API instead when building deterministic production software that needs direct control over requests and responses.

### Data Feed

Bulk data export service for large-scale analysis, data warehousing, and pipeline integration. Delivers structured Chartmetric data at scale.

Use Data Feed rather than request-by-request API access when a team needs larger structured exports for a warehouse, internal pipeline, or broad catalog analysis. Availability and commercial terms are customized through Chartmetric.
