Now with Familiar: Sarah uploads all statements in 15 minutes. The system automatically detects each book, matches it to the right contributors, and calculates everyone's royalty share. She can export payment reports with one click.
Example: Collaborative Anthology
The "Realm of Shadows" anthology has 6 contributors with complex royalty splits: 40%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 10%, and 5%. Sales come from ebook, paperback, and audiobook formats across multiple platforms.
With Familiar: Each contributor's exact earnings are calculated automatically across all formats and platforms. No manual math required. Contributors can even log in to see their own sales data in real-time.
