nero vs auxchord: which is better for paid live submissions?

AuxChord's artist base is much smaller. Nero already has artists coming here to submit music, find hosts, and watch reviews. Your session can show up in Discover alongside other streams they're watching.

An artist who comes to Nero for Sonny Digital can find your show too. You don't have to bring in every person yourself.

See who's live on Nero

On Nero, artists send a song link or upload a file, choose a tier, and pay. They don't need an account or an app. They see the price before paying and can check where their song is in the queue afterward.

We spend a lot of time on this because it affects how much hosts make. Someone trying to pay you shouldn't get stuck figuring out the website. AuxChord's UI feels clunky, and we built Nero to be much easier to use.

See how submissions work

Bugs in the middle of a paid session are frustrating for everyone. We have a full-time engineering team working on Nero, and you can reach us directly when something breaks.

We keep the song and payment records together so we can check what happened. If a submission goes wrong, we work with the artist and the host to correct it. We're not going to leave you explaining a missing song to someone who paid for a review.

We run paid ads for selected hosts to bring more artists to their streams. We also offer auto-clipping so artists can buy and share clips of their reviews.

Reach out if you want help promoting your show. We'll walk through what we can do for you.

Talk to us

You can bring an artist onto a live video call straight from their submission. Hear the song, talk to them about it, and put the call on your stream with the OBS overlay.

You choose who comes on. Paying for queue priority doesn't automatically give someone a video call.

Nero pays out through Stripe. You can see upcoming deposits, payments on the way, and completed payouts in your account. If something looks wrong, contact us and we'll look into it.

We handle chargeback responses too, including pulling together the payment records. You don't have to figure out how to respond to the bank yourself.

The engineering, support, and creator growth teams are all here. Tell us what you need fixed or what you want to do with your stream.
