How this company uses Trustpilot
See how their reviews and ratings are sourced, scored, and moderated.
Imagine paying a business to make money off your intellectual property; that's musixmatch for you!
Not only that, the business even lets you use your free time to work for them if you're a contributor. For free!
They don't answer your questions either when they get too complicated, they just refer you to the artists space, an echo chamber of small artists trying to promote their work to no audience. And where no questions are left answered.
There is no transparency at all, I'm yet to see how I can collect any royalties on the content I provide and there is no way you can get past this business since it's holding a monopolistic position on the market. Yay, great company.

Currently using Oremium but want to upgrade to Pro. Seems there is no path without losing the account I already have.

I’ve used Musixmatch for years as an artist, and I honestly can’t believe the direction they’ve taken. Out of nowhere, they now require a government ID just to verify my artist profile even though I can easily be verified through my official record label, Spotify for Artists, verified email, or even my Instagram account.
This is absurd. Musixmatch already has multiple secure, legitimate ways to confirm identity without forcing artists to hand over personal government documents. It’s invasive, unnecessary, and feels like a massive overreach for what should be a simple lyrics management tool.
Musixmatch, do better. Artists shouldn’t have to trade privacy for access to their own work. Until this policy changes, I'm left helpless and cant even upload my own lyrics to my hard worked songs unless i give my government ID.

The website is just extremely frustrating for an average contributor like me. The tools are decent, when they work. But they often don't and feels like a buggy mess.
Just want to sync the lyrics of some songs I enjoy. Spent a lot of time syncing then just got sv flag errors. Retried and same errors and after a few retries the retry button just stop working. The help button leads me back to the page of the song. There's no way to ask for help either from the website.
And even when I successfully submitted it, the contribution history shows I 'added' the song, not 'synced', and the last contribution was years ago. How would I even know if I was successful?
I don't care about getting credit. I don't care about the curator system or making money from transcribing/syncing lyrics. I just want lyrics to the songs I love transcribed/synced. And their system is extremely hostile towards people like me. They just want free labor for their product. Very disrespectful.
Plus they're using AI for transcription, and their AI transcribed lyrics is like, considered the ground truth. They can have obvious mistakes but as a nobody contributor I have no way to correct/challenge it.

Everything is so easy. Upload audio and lyrics and done 👍
The UI of the website and app is magnificent. Couldn’t ask for a better user experience. Truly beautiful.
Musixmatch is an absolute embarrassment to modern technology! Their tech is abysmal to use. Their AI basically does not work or perform as intended, by any stretch of the imagination. I can't believe that Spotify has partnered with them for their lyrics for artists. It's an absolute crime.

The app has cool features. Be able to transcript and sync the lyrics with the music word by word of the songs of my favorite bands its awesome
horrible website... super buggy and can't do simple tasks. super laggy and a scam. why do I have to pay extra when I already pay someone to distribute my music. this is just a money grab...

L’interface familier de l’application, elle est également facile à utiliser.
It is a great tool and right now I am busy uploading and syncing my album "Wonderful Tonight".
It took a long time to get back into the system. Then my repeating problem was looking to use the AI for lyrics/syncing. Problems:-
Uploading from Apple not possible without having a subscription. Spotify was mentioned but no link shown so this was frustrating because I have a subscription.
Next alternative was for me to upload a file but try as hard as I liked there was no way for me to get to the specific area in "FILES" in my download folder on my TM android where I had saved the studio tracks.
Finally, to my amazement the tracks were actually already linked to the album that I had identified at earlier stage and showed up perfectly on each track that I was handling lyrics. BUT BUT impossible to link the track to your AI process so I am doing everything manually.
I am an independent Artist so have no problem to introduce lyrics and syncing etc. But at the outset when we identify the ALBUM and you automatically sinc to the tracks then there needs to be a clear option of how you can move from that initial stage into AI help rather than the prompts to upload or go to APPLE which is a duplication?
I try to be helpful. maybe I missed something right at the beginning since I am not frequently in the system.
All over some great tools for the Artist!!

They give a chance to people to earn some money by working on lyrics ; and they also give a very complete app that helps a lot with lyrics and good music
