Scrybe is an ad free digital music and content streaming app that was built with the creator and listener in mind. Fans can explore the entire catalog of free music and podcasts that are uploaded by creators as a free user or they can pay as little as $1 and have access to subscribe to all their favourite artists who have adopted the platform. Scrybe has developed a first of its kind business model allowing creators to be paid more and fans to pay less for all of their favourite music and podcasts. For creators, Scrybe is 100% free to use and distribute the content that they own. Simply upload the content, set the subscription rate for that song or episode, the entire album or series, or for the entire catalog of content released. Creators will then be paid by their subscribers rather than for individual streams.
