Agreement-backed accounting review

Audit royalty statements against the deal that governs them.

WALDHORN.AI reads royalty statements in the context of the governing agreement. It helps trace rates, deductions and accounting obligations back to contract language so discrepancies can be investigated with the evidence beside them.

Record 01

The agreement defines the test.

Royalty rates, bases, deductions, reserves, recoupment and statement timing are extracted from the document that governs the accounting period.

  • Rate and base terms
  • Permitted deductions
  • Accounting and audit clauses

Record 02

Statements become traceable findings.

Analyze reported lines against contract expectations and distinguish missing information from a calculable variance.

  • Statement parsing
  • Agreement-to-statement comparison
  • Evidence-linked findings

Record 03

Follow-up starts from an organized record.

Preserve the source statement, governing clauses and findings together for questions, counsel review or a formal demand workflow.

  • Audit history
  • Supporting files
  • Demand-letter preparation

Direct answers

Frequently asked questions.

What does a music royalty audit compare?

It compares the statement with the agreement terms that govern rates, royalty bases, deductions, reserves, recoupment, accounting periods and audit rights.

Does an audit finding prove underpayment?

No. A finding identifies a discrepancy, missing input or contract-to-statement variance that requires review. The available documents determine how conclusive it can be.

Can I preserve the supporting evidence?

Yes. The governing agreement, statement files, extracted terms and findings remain attached to the audit record for later follow-up.
