Incantio is an automated recommendation catalog for one-stop sync and licensing referrals, paying out 80% on placements.
Incantio is a two sided technology powered digital music marketplace that has been founded by professional musicians to provide independent music for content creators in film, TV, and advertising. By using new technology (machine learning,) and by collecting a broader range of data points from the artists as they upload, they can offer our customers new ways to search for local and authentic human music. Their mission is to help surface digital works and increase revenue, by helping customers license the perfect music, effortlessly.
As Independent artists themselves, they built their service with the idea that artists and independent labels need to have an easier way of licensing and pricing their tracks for sync, keeping their rights, and having their music be findable in a new independent catalog that uses the latest technology for recommendations and direct payments.
By using a music-to-music, machine learning search engine, they can filter our diverse catalog without hashtags. And, their catalog itself is very different from their competitors in that it is not static – they don’t purchase content and let it get stale. They are a pass-through platform for independent songwriters and labels, allowing the rightsholders to price their own works for tiered uses, and thus be immediately licensable for those uses. Music supervisors can filter for original music that is new and fresh and authentic, unused and unheard, and license it knowing that all rights holders have signed off. While they are working with newer artists with small collections of music, they are also working with labels that have their own taste and focus. Songs you’ll find on Incantio will always be changing as musicians update their catalogs and their fast search can automatically update previous queries bringing new music to the customer.
Incantio aim to be as much of a recommendation system for new music as to be the best licensing platform for Independent musicians in the global sync market.
