Frequently Asked Questions
Curatorfinder is an online tool that helps artists discover contact details for Spotify playlist curators. It works by analyzing publicly available playlist descriptions and titles on Spotify, allowing users to search for curators based on specific keywords, playlist activity, and other criteria. The tool uses automated techniques to extract relevant information from these descriptions.
Curatorfinder helps you find playlist curators to pitch your music. You start by entering Spotify user URLs and setting search preferences like keywords, playlist activity, and follower counts. The tool then automatically searches through these profiles and their playlists to collect curator contact details. It explores numerous playlists to gather information on users and artists, potentially scanning over a million playlists. After the search period ends, you receive a list of curator contacts, including emails, social media links, and submission forms, which you can export to Excel. Additionally, Curatorfinder identifies whether curators might charge for playlist placements based on their descriptions and link types.

Once you submit your request to scan Spotify playlists in real time, it goes into a queue with other user requests. We provide an estimated start time for your request. When it begins, our algorithm will focus on your request specifically. Once the set time is up, we mark it as 'Completed.' While your request is in progress, you can track the contacts found and see how many playlists have been scanned.

Curatorfinder can benefit you on Spotify by helping you efficiently find and connect with playlist curators who can feature your music. It automates the search for curator contact details based on your specific criteria, such as keywords and playlist activity. This saves you time, increases your chances of getting your music heard by the right audience, and helps you manage your outreach efforts effectively.
To determine if a curator is active, Curatorfinder uses criteria such as the most recent update of their playlists and the frequency of new songs added to the playlists. By checking how current and regularly updated the playlists are, the tool identifies curators who are actively managing and curating playlists. Activity is determined by setting a date threshold by you. The tool finds playlists updated from that date up to the day you submit your request on the Curatorfinder dashboard.
The algorithm can scan through millions of playlists, depending on the time credits available on your profile. You can add more credits to extend the scanning capacity.
The suitability of a playlist for your music is determined based on the criteria you set, such as keywords. The tool searches for playlists that include your specified keywords to find those that match your music style. For example, if you're looking for dance playlists, using the keyword 'dance' in the playlist descriptions helps identify relevant playlists.
