Musical.AI, the company that bills itself as building the world’s first secure platform for copyright management of artificial intelligence training, has partnered with China-based licensing management company Seen to launch what it says is a fully licensed, ready-to-use music artificial intelligence developer directory.
“Unlike other catalogs that may require additional opt-ins from rights holders, the collections seen are fully accessible for artificial intelligence applications,” Musical.AI said in a statement on Tuesday (November 12).
This means technology and artificial intelligence companies can now access Kanjian’s catalog to train artificial intelligence models through “ethically licensed solutions that comply with industry-leading standards for responsible data use.”
In June of this year, Musical.AI (formerly Somms.ai) launched a copyright management platform designed to provide appropriate attribution and compensation for the use of copyrighted works in training artificial intelligence.
The company describes the platform as a “safe middleman” for rights holders such as artists, labels and publishers, as well as generative artificial intelligence companies.
Musical.AI said that adding Kanjian’s catalog to the platform expands the range of music genres and styles available to AI developers, building on the platform’s existing partnerships with rights holders and music libraries. The company did not disclose the size of the library.
Musical.AI co-founder and chief operating officer said: “We are working hard to attract rights holders like Kanjian with the global breadth and high-quality catalogue, which will enable our AI customers to receive more products that reflect the world’s listening habits and Cultural musical training. Matt Adell explain.
“See represents a key partner in Asia and we are excited to work with their forward-thinking team.”
Tinko GeorgievVice President Kanjian said the company is “pleased to partner with Musical AI, an innovator who shares our vision for a fair and transparent music ecosystem.
“At Seen, we have been actively supporting artificial intelligence training in the field of music licensing. The cooperation with Musical AI is a natural extension of the licensing infrastructure we have built over the past decade, strengthening our view of music licensing as a seamless, transparent and efficient currency. commitment.
See describes itself as “the leader in licensing management automation for the music industry.” The company “provides royalty management and collection across digital distribution, publishing, synchronization, public performance, neighboring rights and copyright protection on an end-to-end platform.”

The Shanghai-based company said it has served more than 1 million creator and 100,000 Organizations worldwide with a total online audience of more than 1 billion.
Musical.AI’s platform provides copyright holders with tools to monitor the use of their works in AI, make removal requests, and set limits on how their content can be used in AI-generated AI.
For AI developers, the platform provides a licensed repository for training and access to reports outlining the source material used in their AI-generated content.
“Partnering with Musical.AI is a natural extension of the licensing infrastructure we have built over the past decade, reinforcing our commitment to seamless, transparent and efficient monetization between creators, copyright holders and technology innovators.”

Musical.AI said it has developed the ability to calculate the percentage contribution of each source material in an AI-generated work, allowing for more equitable attribution and compensation to copyright holders.
The company is one of the first companies to obtain this certification well traineda non-profit organization that evaluates and certifies artificial intelligence models based on respect for creators’ rights.
“We’ve made incredible progress in artificial intelligence output, which requires valuable human input. We still have some futures; one where inputs are treated as fungible commodities with no apparent value. That’s This is the future that some artificial intelligence companies are currently promoting. Sean Ball said earlier this year.
“In another, arguably better, future, we humans insist that input matters, that music, art, ideas, words, and the human labor required to create them all have value. If you value the work, then logically Speaking of which, an attribution platform must exist and we are that platform.global music business
