Musical.AI Secures Partnership with Kanjian, a Leader in Global License Management Automation

13 November 2024 - Press release

 

Musical.AI and Kanjian are partnering to bring Kanjian's large, purpose-dedicated catalog to AI innovators seeking fully licensed training data. This unique catalog features original, human-created music from a diverse range of artists and labels across the globe, where all rights holders have explicitly pre-authorized AI usage. Unlike other catalogs, where additional opt-in from rights holders may be required, Kanjian's collection is fully cleared for AI applications. This means that tech and AI companies can immediately leverage Kanjian's catalog for training, benefiting from a streamlined, ethically licensed solution that aligns with industry-leading standards for responsible data use.

Kanjian's extensive catalog enriches Musical.AI's platform, adding a diverse range of genres, styles, and uses. This collaboration, supported by Musical.AI's ongoing agreements with rights holders and production music libraries, further enhances the platform's AI training capabilities.

"We are striving to onboard rights holders like Kanjian who have the global breadth and high-quality catalog that will allow our AI customers to train on music that reflects more of the world's listening habits and culture," explains Musical.AI co-founder and COO Matt Adell. "Kanjian represents a key partnership in Asia, and we're excited to work with their forward-thinking team."

"We are thrilled to partner with Musical AI, an innovator that shares our vision for a fair and transparent music ecosystem," says Tinko Georgiev, VP at Kanjian. "At Kanjian, we've been actively supporting AI training in music licensing, and this collaboration with Musical AI is a natural extension of the licensing infrastructure we've built over the last decade, reinforcing our commitment to seamless, transparent and efficient monetization between creators, rightsholders, and tech innovators."
