The LUCY app (end to end) · Lesson 4 of 10
Analytics, royalties & payouts
**Analytics** in the app is your **performance** view: how releases and tracks move over time—streams, engagement patterns, and related signals you use to steer **promotion** and **collaboration** decisions. **Royalties** and **payouts** are the **money** side: gross, fees, net, and timing depend on **DSP reporting cycles** and your **plan**. Artists live in **streams**; accountants live in **cash**—read the labels on each screen instead of assuming one number equals another.
What you’ll be able to do
- Analytics (streams, trends, audience signals) vs revenue vs payout: three lenses
- Where splits show up and how to reconcile surprises
- Statements, cycles, and when to ask support with evidence
