Most independent publishers manage royalties the way they always have — manually, slowly, and with a quiet dread at the start of every cycle.
The spreadsheets that don’t reconcile. The distributor files that arrive in six different formats. The author emails — arriving the same day statements go out — questioning numbers that were right all along. And the institutional knowledge that lives in one person’s head, waiting to walk out the door.
You know it’s a problem. You also know it’s not why you got into publishing.
A dedicated in-house royalty administrator costs $60,000–$100,000 annually in salary alone.
$60K–$100K
Annual cost before software, benefits, or onboarding
Mocenius delivers the same outcome at a fraction of that cost — with no hiring risk, no learning curve, and no single point of failure. Pricing is tailored to your catalogue: title count, author count, and distributor complexity.
40–80 hours back per cycle
Every hour your team spends reconciling distributor files and formatting statements is an hour not spent on editorial, marketing, or author relationships. We give that time back.
Human-verified, audit-ready
Every statement passes machine calculation and human review. Complete, timestamped royalty history maintained for the life of your account. When anyone questions a number, you point to an independent process — not a spreadsheet.
Professional statements that leave nothing to question
Your authors receive branded, clear, on-time royalty reports. The kind that build confidence in the publisher relationship — not the kind that generate follow-up emails.
Takes away the workload of royalty reporting and the author reports look great — many publishers’ royalty reports don’t.
This allows me to focus on other things, knowing that my royalties are being handled. This is a huge relief.
