Choice guide / music collaboration and distribution
One project is not the whole catalog.
Boombox combines music collaboration, storage, playlists, creator tools, and distribution. VAULT is the stronger fit when the catalog needs a cross-project view and follow-up without making distribution the center of the workspace.

The short answer
Choose Boombox for production collaboration and distribution. Choose VAULT for a catalog-wide view of the work around every song.
VAULT helps a team see the whole catalog, not only the work inside each production project, and connect that view to pitches, submissions, contacts, and actions.
Choose by fit
Which one fits the work?
Both products can be the right choice. Start with the work your team needs to repeat every week.
Choose
Boombox

Choose
VAULT

- Briefs, submissions, contacts, and catalog-wide Actions matter more than distribution
- You want a focused system for music readiness, sharing, and follow-up
The mental model
Same category. Different center of gravity.
Boombox centers the production project. VAULT centers the catalog view that connects every active song and its next action.

Inside VAULT · Four product details
The song stays at the center of the work.
Four product details change what happens after a file enters the catalog.
01
Every version remains one song.
Version control
Keep demos, rough mixes, masters, instrumentals, and edits under one song record across projects. Boombox keeps mix work in a project; VAULT keeps the song legible when its work moves beyond that project.

02
The decisions stay attached.
Creative context
Comments, collaborators, credits, splits, and Actions stay beside the version they affect. The next decision has a home even when a song changes from production to pitching or delivery.

Your catalog can organize itself.
Catalog organization

Sharing is an output, not a second workflow.
Private sharing
Create a private playlist or personalized link from the maintained catalog. Distribution can remain in its own tool while the source song and follow-up stay organized in VAULT.

Buying questions
Common questions, direct answers.
VAULT can replace the catalog and cross-project follow-up layer for teams that do not need built-in distribution. Keep Boombox for production collaboration or distribution when those are central to the workflow.
Yes. Recipients can stream and review shared VAULT music without creating an account.
Yes. Start with one active production or release project and see how it behaves in the wider catalog before moving more work.
No. VAULT organizes music toward release, pitching, or delivery, but it does not replace a distributor. Boombox has the clearer advantage when built-in distribution is essential.
Yes. Songs remain part of one searchable catalog, so versions, metadata, links, contacts, and next actions can be managed beyond a single project room.
