Distribute royalties per stream on a public-chain creator app instead of holding earnings in a monthly batch. The Royalty Standard and Royalty Clearing modules apply each split, an ERC-20 token carries the payment, and the Subgraph Indexer surfaces real-time earnings for every contributor.
Turn an opaque monthly payout into a transparent, per-stream settlement every contributor can audit.
01.
Replace the monthly batch. Each verified stream triggers a payment event, so a contributor's balance moves the moment their work is consumed rather than weeks after the fact.
02.
The Royalty Standard stores each contributor's percentage on-chain. When revenue arrives, the split is applied exactly as agreed, removing the human step where accuracy is usually lost.
03.
The Royalty Clearing module fans a single incoming payment out to every collaborator in one transaction, so a track with five contributors settles all five shares atomically.
04.
An ERC-20 token carries value across the app. Micropayments too small for card rails settle cheaply on-chain, making a fraction of a cent per stream economically viable.
05.
The Subgraph Indexer exposes live earnings. A creator watches their revenue accrue stream by stream instead of waiting for a statement they cannot verify.
06.
The agreed split is anchored before the first payment. Any later question about who was owed what is answered against a signed record, so disputes about accuracy stop.
Follow a single stream from the moment it is counted to the instant each contributor's share lands in their wallet.

Cerulea decomposes creator royalties into modular contracts. Each layer registers the split, meters consumption, clears payment, and exposes earnings without any platform holding funds in the dark.
Per-stream royalty settlement is a horizontal capability. Here is how different creator businesses put transparent splits to work.
Pay artists and collaborators the instant a track is played rather than on a monthly cycle, turning a delayed opaque payout into a live earnings feed each contributor can audit stream by stream.
Key Asset Types
Encode the agreed split between writers, performers, and producers once, then let every stream settle each share automatically, ending the arguments over whether the numbers were calculated fairly.
Key Asset Types
Offer artists a transparent settlement rail as a service, clearing thousands of micropayments across catalogs in real time and cutting the reconciliation overhead of a traditional accounting team.
Key Asset Types
Whether you are bridging an existing streaming platform's play data or routing native wallet-signed micropayments, Cerulea settles both against one royalty ledger.
For established streaming services on legacy infrastructure. Verified play counts are translated into signed on-chain stream events through the API gateway automatically.

Live Royalty Ledger
Building a per-stream royalty engine with encoded splits, micropayment clearing, and a live earnings indexer from scratch requires specialised payments engineers and long audit cycles. Calculate your exact deployment speed using Cerulea.

The legacy timeline reflects creator-payments infrastructure benchmarks. Writing custom split logic, building a micropayment clearing engine, and shipping a verifiable earnings feed for an average app takes a baseline of 8 months. Building the same architecture on Cerulea takes a baseline of 2 weeks, because Cerulea Studio visually translates your split and clearing rules into pre-audited WebAssembly binaries and provisions the royalty ledger and indexer instantly.
