Summary
This post details the work of the Babka team in consolidating non-royalty-bearing stream counts for external sharing. Key technical efforts include the creation of a new, dynamic database for Spotify's artist analytics, which will introduce some latency to provide more flexibility in data retrieval and ensure users are shown data relevant to their rights. The team is also working on 'provider APIs' for record labels, managing technical queries and feasibility requests.
