Frequently Asked Questions
Is Humbl3’s data live or in real-time?
The device is live and ready - but the music data is not yet real-time. We’re actively working on partnerships to enable true live analytics in the future. That said, Humbl3 already delivers high-quality music insights via a trusted third-party provider who aggregates valuable data from all major platforms, 24/7. Even the biggest DSPs don’t offer real-time data - yet. We're building toward that future.
Is the music data the same as on Spotify?
Pretty close. We pull from the same original sources, so the data you see on Humbl3 will often match what’s on Spotify and Spotify for Artists. That said, our insights are processed through trusted third-party providers, which means there might be a short delay. Most stats are synced within a day or two - close enough to stay on top of what’s trending.
Where does Humbl3 get its data?
Right now, all our data comes from Soundcharts - a trusted provider that collects music stats 24/7 from across the industry. That includes streaming platforms, social media, charts, and more. As we grow, we’re always on the lookout for the best solutions, aiming to integrate multiple data sources - and eventually strike direct deals with major platforms who recognize that Humbl3 brings their numbers to life.
Is there a data subscription?
Eventually, yes - but we’re keeping it super affordable. Accessing premium music insights will come with a small monthly fee. We’re currently planning around $1–2/month for a single artist and $3–5/month for premium access to multiple artists or heavier usage. We want you to get powerful data without breaking the bank.
What’s the relationship between Humbl3 and TickrMeter?
Humbl3 is powered by the same tech behind TickrMeter. TickrMeter founder Markus Iversen originally created the gadget to display stock quotes, energy prices, and crypto data. We instantly saw the potential for music, so we teamed up with Markus to create Humbl3 - a new kind of device built to visualize music trends in real time.
Can I access the same data as TickrMeter - like stocks and crypto?
Yes, you can! Humbl3 lets you choose from the original TickrMeter data templates too - so if you want to track stocks, crypto, or energy prices, you’re all set.But let’s be real - if you’re in music, do you really care how much Spotify’s stock is up today? We’re here to spotlight what really matters: artists, songs, and the charts that shape the sound.
I already own a TickrMeter - can I add Humbl3?
Yes! You’ll be able to access Humbl3’s music and creator features right on your original TickrMeter device. No need to buy a whole new gadget - just update your setup, choose the music data templates, and let the charts roll. Whether you’re a data nerd or a music head, it all works together.
How long does shipping take?
Shipping times vary by region. On average, you can expect:
- 3–5 days for orders to the U.S.
- 7–10 days for most countries in the EU
Delivery times may vary slightly depending on your specific location, but we’ll always keep you updated once your order is on the move.
How do I get the data on the device?
After setup and login, you can search for artists, songs, or trends and build custom playlists of data templates based on what you care about. Once you’ve made your selection, just push the updates to your Humbl3 device. It connects via Wi-Fi and updates automatically - no manual syncing needed.
Does the device need an internet connection?
Yes, the Humbl3 device requires a Wi-Fi connection to receive data and updates. Once connected, it automatically pulls in your selected templates and keeps everything fresh in real time.
Can I use multiple data templates?
Absolutely. With Humbl3, you can mix and match templates to create custom playlists - displaying one focus artist or multiple stats in rotation. It’s totally up to you.And we’re just getting started - our goal is to make it even smarter over time. You’ll be able to set your own parameters (eg. automatically adds you new releases) and let Humbl3 handle the rest.
What is a data template?
A data template in Humbl3 is a collection of variable fields designed to display a specific music stat - like track streams, chart position, or audience growth. These templates pull in fresh data from our providers, updating as often as new info becomes available.We’ll continuously roll out new templates based on what you want to see—so you always have the right metrics, right on your desk.
What’s your return policy?
If Humbl3 doesn’t hit the right note, no worries. We offer a 30-day return window from delivery for a full refund - no hard feelings.
Is there an app?
Yes. You’ll be able to control and customize your Humbl3 via our web dashboard - and soon through a dedicated mobile app for iOS and Android.
Who is Humbl3 for?
Humbl3 is designed for music lovers, creators, labels, managers, and superfans - anyone who wants to stay on top of music trends in a visual, stylish, and fun way. If you track charts, stream counts, or artist momentum - Humbl3 makes it tangible.
Can I change what’s displayed anytime?
Yes! You can update your data templates anytime. Just make your changes in the dashboard and push them to your device. It’s fast, wireless, and effortless.
How do I set up Humbl3?
Setting up Humbl3 is simple. Just connect the device to Wi-Fi, log in to your account via the web or app, and start building your data templates. We’ll guide you through it step-by-step—no technical skills needed.
Does Humbl3 need to be plugged in all the time?
Not necessarily. Humbl3 has a built-in battery that can last up to 20 days, depending on your settings. That means you can place it freely on your desk, shelf, or wall without keeping it plugged in. However, to receive real-time updates, a constant Wi-Fi connection is required—so even if it’s running on battery, it still needs to stay connected to the internet.
Why the name Humbl3?
It came from the phrase “humble bragging”—and that’s exactly what Humbl3 does. It quietly flexes your world: your stats, your music, your friends, your clients, your roster. It’s a celebration of what you’re proud of, made visible. And honestly? We just liked the way it looked. Why not?
Can I use multiple Humbl3 devices at once?
Yes! You can run multiple Humbl3s from the same account, each with different templates, artists, or genres. It’s perfect for studios, offices, or multi-artist teams.
What about privacy and data security?
We only use your login to manage your templates and push content to your device. We don’t track or share your personal usage - your dashboard is yours alone.
Is Humbl3 giftable?
Absolutely. It's the perfect gift for music fans, artists, industry insiders and your mom. We’ll even have a gifting option at checkout soon.
Can I request custom templates for my artist or label?
We love hearing from creators. If you have specific data you’d like visualized - especially for artist rosters or campaigns - reach out and we’ll see what’s possible.
Who are you guys?
