What is Kliv?
Kliv isn’t a generic streaming service you sign up for and configure — it’s an AI app builder that builds software for you.
You describe the app you need in plain words, and Kliv builds it: the data, the logic, the screens, and the workflows. You own the result, run it on your own accounts, and change it later by asking for changes. It isn’t a template with your name on it.
On this page, that app is a music streaming platform. Kliv builds all kinds of web apps; this is one example.
Why build your own music streaming platform?
A live-music scene often has recordings that do not fit the big platforms. A co-op may have hundreds of local sets, specific musicians to credit, and its own agreement about how plays should be counted and paid.
Kliv builds a streaming app around those rules. Recordings sit behind a subscription, every set gets a real page, and plays become records the co-op can count, report on, and use for monthly artist statements.
What the platform keeps
The archive is a set of records, each with a clear job.
Sets
Each set is stored with the club, date, lineup, tracklist, liner notes, photos, and the audio file itself. A listener can search for the night, the player, or the tune.
Players
Every musician is linked to the sets they played and the share they carry on each one. The agreement is stored where the monthly tally can read it.
Subscriber access
Audio is streamable to current subscribers and closed to everyone else. The play button checks the subscription before serving the file.
Split statements
Plays become rows, and rows become monthly tallies per artist. Kliv does the counting and prepares statements; the co-op still decides when and how to transfer money.
Liner notes and photos
Door photos, notes from the set, and context about the room sit beside the audio they describe.
Listening analytics
The platform tracks what was played, finished, and replayed by set and by club, using the counters you ask for while the app is built.
An example: Amos’s live-music co-op
Here’s how one co-op might use it. It’s only an example — you would describe your own catalog, artists, subscriptions, and split rules.
He records the set
Amos records a two-hour quartet set in a sixty-seat basement, just as he has for years.
The set goes into the archive
Before he sleeps, the files are uploaded behind the subscriber gate. The co-op does not wait for another platform’s review queue.
The page connects the details
The lineup and tracklist become the set page. Those same details power player links, liner notes, search, and play counts.
Subscribers listen across time zones
Listeners stream the set the next day. Every play records the set, the subscriber tier, and the date.
Artists see their own numbers
A trumpet player signs in and sees her sets, her plays, and her monthly tally. She cannot browse the co-op’s full ledger.
The month closes with statements
At month end, each artist’s share is computed from the play rows. The co-op settles up with numbers it can explain.
Describe the streaming platform you want
Kliv builds from your description, so include the catalog, access rules, prices, artist roles, and the reporting you need. Here are three examples:
Live jazz archive
Recorded sets behind a monthly subscription.
“Build a streaming platform for our jazz co-op. Subscribers pay $10.50 a month to stream 400 recorded sets, browse by club, player, year, and tune, and save favorites. Each set needs a public preview page and full audio for subscribers only. Artists should sign in to see their own play totals and monthly split statements.”
Choir season pass
Concert recordings for patrons and families.
“Build a streaming platform for our chamber choir. Season patrons pay $48 a year to stream every concert recording. Each program page should list works, composers, soloists, venue, date, and notes. Let us publish one free sample track per concert and keep the full recording for patrons.”
DJ mix vault
Free preview period, then supporter access.
“Build a mix vault for my monthly DJ sets. Each set streams free for 14 days, then moves behind a $6 per month supporter subscription. Every mix page needs a tracklist, cover image, release date, and play counts, and supporters should keep access while their subscription is current.”
How the platform works
Access is stored as data. Subscriptions can run on the co-op’s own Stripe account. A current subscription opens the audio; a lapsed one closes it. Failed-card retries and recovery emails can happen before a listener reaches a locked set.
Artists get their own view. A player signs in to see her own sets, plays, and statements. The boundary is enforced in the data, not by hiding menu links.
Set pages can be found. Four hundred pages of lineups, tracklists, and notes give search engines and sharing musicians something real to point at.
A streaming archive is one kind of media business. Media on Kliv covers the wider pattern.
Common questions
What exactly is Kliv?
Kliv is an AI app builder. You describe the music streaming platform you need, and it builds a real app with data, screens, access rules, and workflows that fit your catalog.
Do I get a real app, or a template?
A real app. Your sets, artists, subscriptions, play counts, and statements are stored as records in the app, not squeezed into a pre-made theme.
Can I change it after it’s built?
Yes. You can ask for changes in plain words: add a new artist view, change the subscription, add free previews, or adjust the statement format.
Can musicians get paid through the platform?
The platform keeps the numbers: plays per set, shares per player, and statements per month. The actual money transfer remains a co-op decision.
What stops subscribers from sharing links?
A forwarded link still has to pass the same access check. Without a current subscription behind the request, the audio is not served.
Can some sets be free?
Yes. A free set can live in the same catalog with its access rule open, while the rest of the archive stays subscriber-only.
Can artists see only their own data?
Yes. Artist logins can be scoped so a musician sees only their own sets, play totals, and statements.
Will set pages show up in search?
Yes. Pages can be built so crawlers can read the set details, lineup, tracklist, and notes.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. The platform can run on your own domain.
Who owns the recordings and data?
You do. The audio, notes, subscriber list, and split ledger are your files and records.
Can I move off Kliv later?
Yes. The code syncs to your own Git repository, so leaving is a git pull, not a rebuild.
