Domain knowledge that doesn't need explaining.
Most software agencies treat music tech like any other vertical. We don't.
We understand catalog management, rights workflows, royalty data, and the difference between how artists think about their music and how platforms need to model it. We've built tools that artists, labels, and music businesses actually use, and we've learned what makes them work.
Domain knowledge isn't something we develop during your project. It's already there when we start.
What we build for music.
Catalog management systems for labels and distributors. Song metadata, rights tracking, performance analytics, and valuation tooling built for the way catalogs are actually managed.
AI-powered analysis, categorisation, recommendation, and discovery features. Song classification, remixing assistance, AI-driven catalog insights, and LLM-powered music search. Real production systems, not demos.
Platforms that let artists collaborate, distribute, and monetize. Built for the workflows artists actually use, not the workflows software designers assume they use.
Subscription, ticketing, merchandise, and streaming revenue tooling. Integrated with the payment and distribution infrastructure the music industry runs on.
SMS, email, and messaging platforms for direct artist-to-fan communication. Personalized campaigns, analytics, and tools that help artists build audiences without giving up ownership of the relationship.
Faster iteration matters more in music tech.
Music moves fast. Trends shift. Artist needs change. A platform that takes nine months to ship a feature misses windows that won't reopen.
Agentic engineering means faster iterations on the parts of the product that require speed, without cutting corners on the data integrity, rights logic, and backend reliability that music businesses depend on. We automate the predictable work. Our engineers focus on the domain-specific decisions that only someone who understands the industry can make well.
Who this is for.
You have a product vision for a platform that serves artists, labels, or music businesses. You need a development partner who doesn't need a two-week onboarding on how the music industry works.
You have internal systems that need to modernize: rights management workflows, reporting infrastructure, catalog tooling. You need engineers who understand the data and the business context.
Your platform needs AI: better discovery, catalog intelligence, personalisation, or workflow automation. You need a team that can assess whether it's viable, pick the right approach, and ship it properly.
Common questions.
Yes. We've been building software for the music industry since 2017, catalog management, rights tracking, royalty data. We understand publishing and master rights, sync licensing, and why royalty data is hard. That domain knowledge comes into every scoping conversation.
We've built music catalog platforms, AI-powered song categorisation tools, artist collaboration platforms, SMS marketing tools for music professionals, fan engagement platforms, and catalog analytics systems for labels and distributors.
We start with feasibility: what data is available, what accuracy is required, and what the right approach is (RAG, classification, embeddings, fine-tuning). We validate before building, so you know whether the AI feature is viable before committing engineering resources to it.
New products typically start with an MVP Acceleration Sprint, 4-6 weeks from discovery to production. Ongoing platforms are usually a good fit for Continuous Agentic Development, a monthly retainer with the same team. For legacy system modernization, we start with a diagnostic before any development commitment.
Both. We work with music tech founders building new platforms and with record labels and distributors modernizing internal systems, rights management, and catalog tooling. The common thread is we understand the domain either way.
