Fair pay
We pay all voice providers at least 15% of product revenue. No restrictions, no exceptions: money goes straight from sales into your account.
Community first
Creators who bring their existing characters to Mikoto feel right at home. Generous guidelines, no restrictions on UTAU libraries, limited-time exclusivity only.
Expert coaching
Our team of hands-on developers and producers is always available. We offer recording assistance and vocal coaching where needed.
The process
How it works
Record
We provide you with everything you need to record on your own. Tech support, vocal coaching, continuous feedback, equipment fund, you name it.
Review
We go back and forth with you to make sure you're happy with everything, from voice model quality to character design. Your input shapes everything.
Release
Your voice library launches on Mikoto Studio. Revenue sharing starts immediately: every sale sends your cut directly to your account. You stay involved post-launch.

Questions
Frequently asked
Can I apply to get my voicebank on Mikoto Studio?
We have opened voice provider applications! We select our talents based on a variety of criteria: voice uniqueness, character, singing skill, and more. This assessment is made by our skilled voice and character development experts.
Can I donate singing voice data for Mikoto Studio?
Although we have considered accepting data donations, it is currently not possible to add your own recordings to our data collection. As part of our strict guidelines on Ethical AI, we believe it is our duty to verify the origin of every audio recording we use in our commercial products or the development thereof. As of right now, we do not have the capacity nor technological capabilities to reliably determine this for large volumes of data, so we cannot accept external data donations.
Are you a talent agency?
Nope! We do not represent our talents in any way, shape, or form. Due to the nature of the work, the people we partner with are often already managed by a talent agency or manager. We only collaborate for the purposes of creating and promoting a Mikoto singing voice library.
What is the time commitment involved?
We build our schedule around your availability. We discuss the amount of data we need upfront, so that everyone knows what's expected of them. Recording can be done either in person or remotely.
