Our Team

We're musicians with more than 50 years of playing experience between the two of us and 20 years of teaching. We see two problems that we hope to address: 1. Music Copyright has crippled creators around the world. 2. Almost everyone wants to have a creative relationship with music, but they don't know how to start.

We are an AI-powered Music creation platform for Creators

100M+ Creators around the world need music now that copyright has become inescapable.

Generative music protects them from copyright infringement and does something that stock music never will - adapt.

How are we going to win this space? 

  • Adaptability
    • Stock music is static. You can only hope that it fits well with your content or make your content fit the music.
    • Generative music can adapt and change to fit where it is needed.  
  • High Margins
    • Stock music and many other music companies struggle on margin. Even major music streaming companies struggle to turn a profit because of how thin their margins are.
    • Strofe has extremely high margins, which is why we can let our users make as many songs as they want and only have to pay when they want to own &
  • Execution
    • We bring a unique combination of technical skills from leaders in the field at Stanford, musical expertise from a lifetime of practice, and startup experience that has led to a one-of-a-kind approach to this opportunity.

What have we seen in 1 year? 

  • Our users love us! 
    • Strofe has 58 NPS from our users and a 38% must-have score. Over 50% of our growth is from word-of-mouth.
  • Traction
    • Our users were found at a cost of less than $0.08 per user, with 7.5k MAU. Our CPC is .01-.03, and our early experiments yield %50 return on ad spend and 0.5% conversion rate. 
    • Even with a traditional paid ad approach we are halfway to our goal of hitting profitability on paid ads.   
  • Growing market needs
  • Music copyright has hit the news multiple times in the last year. 
    • Roblox sued for $200m...
    • lo-fi girl Youtube channel was taken down...
    • and in the last week Youtube published that creators lost $2B in ad revenue to music copyright *new # since we made our video!*
