Human Native AI
Primary contact: James Smith
We help rights holders extract, clean and prepare their content for AI developers; we open up new markets (from the world’s largest tech companies to seed-stage AI startups) and we provide market intelligence to help you with pricing content. We ensure that rights holders maintain granular control over the licenses they grant, based on price and use case. We’re working with a network of hundreds of AI developers, and several are requesting music content. Specifically, these companies are requesting stem-separated music (e.g., songs separated into individual vocal and instrumental tracks), and music with high-quality metadata (e.g., music labelled with genre, artist etc.). These companies aren’t just training AIs that generate new music; they’re building products for mixing and mastering, music education, accessibility and analysis. We’re building a fair information ecosystem, and are already working with hundreds of rights holder partners and AI developers ready to licence content.
