EPK Builder
A press kit built for the person reading it — booker, press, brand, or festival.
An EPK bookers actually trust
Bookers skip EPKs they cannot trust. Open a live example first: a real Artispreneur EPK, published as one live link, exactly what a booker receives.
Verified Proof: why this EPK is different
- Streaming proof comes from verified sources you connect or supply, and every stat in the kit is sourced or removed by the claim check before anything is published.
- Audience numbers are the current ones from your own profiles, not a count a bot scraped from a namesake artist last year.
- Press quotes run with their outlet attached, and only when you supplied them. Nothing is fabricated, estimated or borrowed.
- Scraped EPKs fail because the photo, the listener count or the link belongs to someone else. A booker checks one number, finds it wrong, and moves on before your music plays.
What is inside, in one link
- Bio written for the reader: booker, press, brand or festival
- Music and focus track, with the links a booker needs
- Video and live clips, where you have them
- Photos that are actually yours
- Press quotes with sources
- Tour dates and past shows you can back up
- Contact and booking details, current
The booker view: the first 30 seconds
A booker, promoter or supervisor opens one link and checks three things fast: who you are, whether your numbers hold up, and how to reach you. This EPK is laid out in that order. Here is the pitch that carries it:
Sample pitch email
Subject: [Artist name], [city], available [date range]
Hi [name], I am [artist name], a [genre] artist from [city]. My verified EPK is one link: [your live EPK link]. Streaming, audience and press proof are all on that page and current. Happy to send a rider or hold dates if the slot fits.
SAMPLE email. Bracketed fields are yours to fill from your own facts; the builder never fills them with invented claims.
Pricing and EPK questions
- What does it cost? The EPK Builder runs free for signed-in members from the card on this page. The full Artispreneur platform, All-Access, is $20 per month, billed monthly. See Pricing.
- How do updates work? Update the EPK once in My EPKs and every booker who opens your live link sees the current version. No re-sending a new PDF every time your numbers move.
- What happens to my EPK if I cancel All-Access? The EPK page and print files you built are saved to My EPKs on your account; cancelling ends the subscription, not the work you already made.
What you walk away with
- Designed EPK web page + print-ready HTML (use Save as PDF), saved to My EPKs
- Audience-specific layout (booking, press, brand, general or one-sheet)
- Claim check: every stat sourced or removed
What the agent asks you
- Who the EPK is for (press, booking, brands, festivals, release campaign)
- Artist name, genre, city, and links
- Credits, shows, press, and numbers you can back up
How it runs

- 3Run the claim validator; fix or drop unsourced claims

- Never invents facts about you — it asks.
- Never collects or stores your SSN.

Ask which audience (general press, booking, partnerships, festival, release campaign). Call get_epk_variant_spec for it. 2. Collect: artist name, genre, location, links, focus track, credits, shows, press, stats — with a source for every material claim. Ask in ONE message for anything that makes the design premium and is missing: a press photo link (https), streaming/social links, releases (title, type, year, link, cover art link), real press quotes with outlet, past shows, rider notes. Never invent any of it. 3. Write the bio and highlights in the variant's order. Keep voice professional, active, no hype adjectives. 4. Call validate_epk with the draft. Resolve every missing item; source or remove every flagged claim. 5. Call build_complete_epk with every confirmed fact (and only those). Template: booking → "booking", press/release campaign → "media", partnerships → "brand", quick send → "one_sheeter", anything else → "general". This produces the designed web page + print-ready HTML (use Save as PDF) in My EPKs. Do NOT deliver the EPK with create_document; only use create_document if the artist explicitly asks for plain text. 6. Tell the artist the readiness stage and the top 3 things to add (from qa warnings / readiness.nextActions) so the next version looks even stronger, and point them to /app/epk. ## Quality Guardrails & Security - Never fabricates press, stats, awards, or placements - Unverified claims are dropped, not estimated - Never invent facts about the artist (names, credits, numbers, links). - Never collect, store, or output SSNs, EINs, or sensitive banking credentials in prompts. - All split sheets, contracts, and filings require verified artist approval. --- *Artispreneur Skill Specification · https://artispreneur.com/services/create-an-epk · Art Means Business.*
