How ListPitch works
How ListPitch Works
ListPitch is a music submission and discovery platform connecting independent artists with playlist curators and music tastemakers. Both sides follow the same transparent process — no hidden algorithm, no guaranteed placement, just a structured way to submit, review and respond to music.

Principles behind the process
Transparency and relevance, not guarantees
ListPitch does not guarantee acceptance into any playlist or channel — curators keep full editorial control over every decision. The process is built so artists submit to curators who are genuinely relevant to their sound, instead of submitting widely and hoping. See the full pricing model on the pricing page, or read more about ListPitch's approach.
Process questions
Does ListPitch guarantee my track gets accepted?+
No. Curators make independent editorial decisions on every submission. ListPitch structures the process; it never decides on a curator's behalf.
What happens after a curator reviews my track?+
You receive structured scores and written feedback, and the submission moves to accepted, rejected or stays in review, visible on your dashboard.
Can curators skip listening and just approve everything?+
Reviews are expected to reflect a real, qualified listen. Feedback that looks inauthentic or shows no listening signal can be reported and investigated.
