The record label

Built for poets.

Original poetry reimagined as music, with the poet, the source work, and the story behind it at the center.

The roster

Poets heard
in a new dimension.

Poetronica Records collaborates with award-winning poets to develop complete musical projects from their writing. Each release creates a new entry point into the original work and invites listeners back to the poem.

Richard Blanco

The Poet-First Model

No exclusivity.
No rights grab.
Ever.

Technology serves human expression. The business model should, too.

01

You keep ownership. Your poem remains yours, with shared master ownership of the resulting recording.

02

You receive primary artist credit. Your name and creative authorship lead the release.

03

You participate in revenue. Poetronica’s standard model allocates 60% to the poet and 40% to the label.

04

You stay free to create. Agreements are non-exclusive, so your artistic life remains your own.

Open call

Bring us the poem
only you could write.

We are looking for 1–2 additional award-winning poets to join the initial roster of poetronica artists.

Poetronica transforms original writing through a creative process using artificial intelligence under human artistic direction.

Your poem remains yours. Agreements are non-exclusive, and poets receive primary artist credit.
