About 5–8 minutes in total. Your answers save as you go, so you can close this and come back
to the same link. No payment card is required at any point.
Why we ask: the pilot involves a rights and promotional agreement, so participants must be legal adults.
Yes
No
Why we ask: the decision on your application is sent here. After that, pilot messages wait for you inside SetLight.
Optional. Anywhere your music already lives — a profile link is fine.

Enough to understand what you make and who you are making it for.

Something else
Why we ask: SetLight titles covers and originals differently, and cover material has different promotional limits.
Mostly originals
Mostly covers
A real mix of both
All of it
Most of it

Proof and permissions
Proof is the reason this cohort exists, so these are asked one at a time rather than bundled into a
single box. The first four are required for a Founding Artist position. The last one is genuinely optional and
does not affect your application.
Your likeness and footage of you performing are required for a Founding Artist position
and cannot be declined — a cohort built to show what the product does for real artists cannot work without
them. Everything below them is yours to choose, and saying no to any of those does not affect your
acceptance.
These promotional permissions are granted once,
when you accept a position, and they do not rescind. Leaving the pilot later does not withdraw them.
Marketing email is separate and can be turned off at any time.
By name
Generally ("an independent artist")
Anonymously
Before you submit
Plain language, no surprises. This is exactly what you are agreeing to.
What you are committing to
Use SetLight on at least three real music recordings during the pilot.
Review what it produces, including telling us where it got things wrong.
Answer short structured checkpoints.
Record one short video interview about your experience, before your finished pack is released.
Appear on camera — your likeness and performance footage are part of this programme.
What you get
90 active days free — the clock starts when you log in, not when you are accepted.
50% off the standard Artist price afterward, while your subscription stays continuous.
No payment card now or during the pilot. You are never charged automatically.

Thank you — some of those questions were work to answer.
What happens now
SetLight reviews every application. The mandatory requirements are checked automatically and your
answers are summarised, but a person makes the final decision — never software.
There are 25 positions and more applications than positions, so a strong application can
still end up waitlisted.
We will not invent a guaranteed response date. You will hear either way at .
Applying is not acceptance, and no account has been activated yet.
