    Music intelligence for platforms and products

    Music intelligence, built into your product.

    Bring music matching, brand-fit reasoning and rights information into your own product workflow, so your users move from a brief or a scene to a usable shortlist without leaving your interface.

    Three problems product teams bring us

    01

    Search returns results, not decisions

    Keyword and genre filters give a user a list. They do not explain why a track fits this brand, this scene or this audience, so the user still has to guess.

    02

    Discovery and rights live in different systems

    A user finds something usable, then leaves your product to find out whether they are allowed to use it. That handoff is where workflows break.

    03

    Music expertise does not scale with headcount

    The judgement that makes a good match is held by a few people. Encoding it into a product is the only way to serve every user, in every market, at once.

    From scene to shortlist.

    A sample walkthrough of the workflow an integration exposes, using curated example data. Step through it to see what each stage takes in and gives back.

    Walk the stages

    1. Scene or brief

    Capture what the moment needs, in the user's own words.

    The input is a scene description, a brief, or a video. Example: a thirty-second film, three locations, ending on a product close-up, tone confident but not aggressive, audience 25–40, German market.

    • Input: text brief, structured parameters, or video
    • No music knowledge required from the end user

    This is a sample walkthrough with curated data, not a live API call. It does not show real response times, and the brand-fit reasoning shown is an explanation of method, not a validated accuracy score.

    The stages above describe the workflow an integration exposes. Exact endpoints, payloads, authentication, limits and availability are covered under enterprise and partner access, we confirm them in writing during scoping rather than publishing unverified specifications here.

    How an integration conversation runs

    Access to Brand Studio and SceneMatch APIs is granted under enterprise and partner agreements, as described on our developer page. The path below reflects that access model.

      Technical scoping

      You provide

      Your architecture, data flow constraints and security requirements.

      You receive

      Confirmed integration surface, formats and the conditions attached to access.

    3. 03

      Partner agreement

      You provide

      Commercial and legal contacts.

      You receive

      Written terms covering access, usage and support commitments.

    4. 04

      Implementation

      You provide

      Engineering time and a test environment.

      You receive

      Credentials, documentation and a technical contact during build.

    How this is used today

    Brand-constrained music management

    Brand Studio

    Built for brands and their partners to work inside an approved musical world rather than an open catalogue.

    Narrative-driven music matching

    SceneMatch™

    Matches music to visual content by analysing narrative and pacing rather than keywords alone.

    From scene description to music shortlist

    What an integration needs to be worth building. Use this to frame an internal discussion.

    • The user moment: where in your product does music get chosen?
    • The input you can realistically capture: text, structured fields, or the video itself
    • Whether a brand profile exists to constrain results
    • What your user does with the shortlist next
    • Whether rights information needs to appear in the same view
    • Volume, markets and languages you expect to serve
    • Who owns the integration after launch

    Questions product teams ask

    Brand Studio is about a brand's own musical world: profiles, approved assets and guardrails so teams stay consistent. SceneMatch™ is about matching music to content by analysing narrative and pacing. They are often used together, SceneMatch™ proposes, the brand profile constrains.
