LANDR plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

|---|---|---|---|
| Mastering Basic | $4/month | 2 | Entry tier |
| Distribution Basic | $24/year | 2 | +$20/year, 2 more features |
| Mastering Pro | $25/month | 2 | +$1/month, 2 more features |
| Distribution Pro | $45/year | 2 | +$20/year, 2 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

What the product covers
The full LANDR feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- AI mastering
- Digital distribution
- 100 percent royalty retention
- Pay-per-track mastering
- Sample packs and plugins
- Collaboration tools
People bring LANDR in for an independent producer wanting fast, low-cost mastering for demos or lower-stakes releases, a self-releasing artist who wants distribution to spotify and apple music without a label or aggregator contract, a producer wanting to pay for a single mastered track without committing to a subscription, an artist who wants sample packs, mastering and distribution bundled together under one studio plan. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to LANDR are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Music
Too few music tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the LANDR badges page.
Before you pay for LANDR
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 4 tiers between $4/month and $45/year, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare LANDR against the tools that do have one before committing.
LANDR runs on web, and is published by LANDR Audio of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The full record is on the LANDR review, and the rest of the category is under best music tools.

- That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is higher-tier distribution features, 100 percent royalty retention. It costs $45/year against $4/month for Mastering Basic. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.
