The evidence layer for creative work. A cryptographic provenance protocol for music.
ACTA Music is a cryptographic provenance protocol that records how music is made, held by the artist and verifiable anywhere.
Paid pilots, then prepaid volume commitments with a price per API call above, and SDK licences. Artists never pay.
Detectors and AI labels judge the finished file. No one can show how a work was made. AI exposed that gap; it didn't create it.
Protocol finalised, Session and Registry built, 1st DAW integration (Ableton), 2,228+ tests, 5 patent applications, TM filed, DDEX member.
ACTA records the session as it happens, signed by the artist. No audio leaves the machine, no blockchain, verifiable offline without us.
AI detectors, self-declared AI labels, watermarks. They infer or declare; none evidences the work. ACTA is designed to be carried by C2PA.
Open-implementation protocol, 3 layers: Session and Registry built, Capture specified. 1st DAW integration: Ableton Live (Max for Live).
With or without investment — figures provided by the founders.
A €300k pre-seed in two closes, with a CTO from the first close, as industrial pilots require one now. It also funds technical integration, IP protection and the first team. Pilot partners and go-to-market mentors.
Evidence, not a verdict. The trajectory, not a snapshot. Artist-held keys, selective disclosure, verification without us.
Artists, rights societies, distributors, streaming platforms, DAW and hardware makers, AI voice and generative AI, metadata and detection.
5 pilots in discussion, incl. a collective management society. Then prepaid commitments; adoption via DDEX and DAW integrations.
SAM (music only): ~€16.6M/yr in our model. 253M tracks on streaming services (Luminate, 2025), ~150,000 new ones a day in 2026.
Founder-led: Medium, LinkedIn, X, HackerNoon, DataDrivenInvestor, Bootcamp, Journal du Net, SSRN/Zenodo briefs, DDEX, talks, demo under NDA.
