Paid briefs from TV, film, games, podcasts and ads — posted with what they need, what they pay and how the music gets used. Pitch the tracks that fit, deal direct with the production, and keep every cent of the fee.
A pitch is a submission, not a placement — briefs shortlist a few out of many, and buyers can take months. What this removes is the part where nobody will look at all.
23 paid briefs are live today. Here are the five biggest — click any one to read the full brief before you decide it is worth your time.
All prices in US dollars. Pitching is included on Pro and Label, and every plan comes with a storefront that keeps 100% of your sales. Played takes nothing from any sync fee you agree.

Three steps, and the middle one is the part most platforms leave you guessing about.
Every brief says what it needs, what it pays and how the music will be used. 23 are open today.
Attach a track from your storefront or paste a link to it anywhere else, and say why it fits. Pro includes 3 pitches a month.
Shortlisted pitches get a clearance round: who owns it, any samples, PRO registration, AI disclosure and delivery format. Answer it and we take it to the client.
Shortlisted pitches get one clearance round before anything reaches the client. Here is exactly what it asks, so you can have the answers ready — or fix them — before you pitch.
No agents. No middlemen. No cut.No. A pitch is a submission, not a placement. Briefs typically shortlist a handful out of many, buyers can take months to decide, and some briefs close without choosing anybody. Nothing on this page promises a deal or a reply timeline.
No. Played takes 0% of any sync deal and 0% of your music sales. The fee is agreed between you and the buyer. The subscription is the whole business model, which is why there is no incentive for us to sit between you and the money.
No. Terms are set per brief, and none of the 23 briefs open today asks for exclusivity — several state non-exclusive explicitly. You keep your masters and your publishing either way, and Played never administers or licenses your music.
Pitching is included on Pro (3 a month) and Label (10). On the Artist plan you can buy pitches instead — 1 credit each, from $6.67 in a pack — which is the cheaper route if you pitch occasionally.
No. Briefs are judged on whether the music fits what the production needs. There is no gatekeeper deciding whether your music is allowed to be heard, which is the entire point of putting the briefs on a board.
Pick a plan and the board opens. 23 paid briefs are waiting right now.
