Where to begin? Your service is fundamentally broken, which you admit to a customer(?), and then you send me an obvious LLM output that fundamentally mismatches essential elements of my artist journey such as the wrong timeline, wrong essential details, misquotes things I said, and other elements of the deliberately handwritten canned story I practically wrote for you, knowing that your service is primarily a tech company, not a journalism service. You didn't even bother to replace the full dashes with hyphens or make sure the text would pass an AI generated text checker service. Gross negligence at its finest is on display.
Pathetic is not a strong enough word.

Hi, we’re sorry to hear that the service did not meet your expectations. We have successfully run tens of thousands of campaigns and produced hundreds of press releases with a high satisfaction rate from our clients. The current pause in campaign reviews is a result of ongoing system maintenance, not a service failure. This temporary interruption is a necessary step to ensure a more stable and reliable user experience moving forward.
All elements of the press release can be revised or adjusted based on customer feedback at any time. As requested, a full refund has already been processed, which concludes any further service or obligations on our end.
Best,
Team Apolone

Desaconsejo su uso
He sido playlist curator desde hace unos años. Y tan sólo hace uno, empresas de este tipo empezaron a contactarme para ser parte de su equipo de curadores para escuchar y revisar musica a cambio de una compensación. A día de hoy colaboro con otras plataformas, y por ahora y tras varios meses haciendolo, todo ha ido genial. Mi experiencia con APOLONE comenzó mal, continuó mal, y me temo que va a terminar muy mal. Algo que me llamó la atención es la "facilidad" en que se puede hacer dinero en la plataforma, o más bien la rapidez en conseguir fondos (requieren que acumules al menos 50 dolares para poder solicitar un pago) simplemente escuchando y añadiendo música a mis playlists (no utilizo bots, al contrario que otros curadores o negocios que se dedican a esto y usan dinero para conseguir streams artificiales, etc...) que me encargo de crecer de manera organica y a traves de promocion en RRSS. Entonces, poco después de empezar a usar la plataforma, me dí cuenta de que me habían descontado 500 créditos por, supuestamente, haber eliminado canciones que primero añadí (para poder acumular créditos), algo que me parece a todas luces ridículo ya que quién en su sano juicio va a hacer algo así cuando cualquiera puede ver y comprobar si una canción está en una playlist, chequeando la playlist en su celular o si usan pc, puede verse la fecha desde que se añadió, así de sencillo. Me puse en contacto con ellos a traves de IG, y su respuesta fue que yo habia eliminado esas canciones y que por lo tanto había infringido las normas, así que me puse manos a la obra a revisar toda la musica que había curado a traves de ellos, y para mi sorpresa, yo no habia eliminado nada. Así que se lo detalle y mostré capturas de pantalla, exigi que se me diese una lista de canciones que yo habia eliminado, una por una las comprobé y les dije que hiciesen su trabajo bien, ya que se estaban equivocando. La comunicación duró unos días, y finalmente me devolvieron los créditos. Pero algo volvió a ocurrir, cuando solicité el pago, la página web se puso en modo mantenimiento, y desde entonces, ahora ya va alguna semana que otra, muestran el mismo mensaje en ella, de que volverán pronto. Desconozco cuanto tiempo vana a esperar hasta que nos olvidemos de lo que están haciendo, para volver a la carga con nueva sangre y hacer lo mismo pero, creo que puedo dar por perdido mi pago a estas alturas. Así que desaconsejo encarecidamente a todo aquel, músico y curador, o ambas cosas, el uso y colaboración con esta plataforma engañosa que además no duda en aceptar cualquier tipo de música ya sea hecha por humanos o completamente IA, sin pasar filtro alguno, y mucho menos de calidad.

Hi,
We’re currently performing system maintenance and addressing technical issues to ensure a more stable, secure, and reliable platform experience.
Requested payouts will be processed shortly — the delay is due to ongoing technical updates, but everything is being handled as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Best,

Playlist legitimacy is suspect
I was reasonably happy(read the end of my comment, it didn’t last) with the streaming increase then their website went down. Keeps saying 12 hrs, it’s been down for days. I think if they want to convey a professional reputation then the website should not be down for so long. After all, the website allows the customer to monitor the service they are getting.
After about a month. All the playlists you were added to will remove your songs and your streams will be back to where they were before the Apolone service. Also the legitimacy of the playlist are suspect, with the top listener cities were Lagos in Nigeria and also a city in India.

Hi Frank - We’re currently performing system maintenance, and as a result, the artist portal is temporarily unavailable. Once the maintenance is complete, you’ll be able to log in to your artist dashboard as usual.
The maintenance process is a standard procedure in any company designed to keep all systems running smoothly and ensure a safer, more reliable customer experience. All ongoing campaigns remain unaffected by the current maintenance.

Honestly expected more
Honestly expected more. Waited 30 days to give them a chance before writing this review. Paid their $39.99 and their promise to get listed, and promoted fell very short. I got listed on a whopping 2 playlists on Spotify that weren’t even in the same genre and 0 zero new followers, interactions or even a follow up report. Wouldn’t use them again

BEWARE
BEWARE! They say you get organic streams but according to Spotify they’re using bots and artificial streams. See the email I just received below from the distributer. Now I’m getting fined and my release may get taken down. I guess you live and learn. Stay away from this company!
“Spotify have reported artificial streaming activity on track(s) distributed through your Amuse account. When Spotify detect and verify streams as artificial, they withhold royalties for those streams and apply a fine to the label or distributor.
This is usually the result of using promotional services that utilizes bot streaming or illegitimate practices to guarantee playlist placements and streams.
The following track ISRCs are affected:
SE6XY2297872
As a result of Spotify's fine, 10 USD has been deducted from your Amuse Wallet balance from the royalty period 2025-08-01. This will also be visible on your royalty statement.
Please note that the fine cannot be contested by the affected artist nor Amuse, in accordance with Spotify's Terms of use.”

For their website you only get paid…
For their website you only get paid when you hit $50, when I hit $40 after months of helping them they banned my account. Never paid me my $40. Just a scam website.

I’m an old school artist
I’m an old school artist that still likes to write music and put it together. I’ve looked at several other places to launch my campaign. I’ve seen some great results in just two weeks.
