After 10+ years in the music industry, I decided it was time to make a real change. The industry remains too informal, fragmented, and inefficient. We've identified two key insights: While most companies focus on helping artists generate more views or streams, the real issue isn’t just access to capital—it's access to opportunity. Artists often don’t know how to spend the limited money they have. We're building a solution to help them make smarter, more efficient decisions. Having owned two small businesses in the music industry, I’ve seen firsthand the massive need for a platform like ours—one that delivers leads and more deals to small businesses. Our model ensures artists don’t pay; instead, we’ll charge businesses to fuel the platform’s success. We’re here to make the music industry more connected, efficient, and accessible for all.

Finally, a place where musicians can connect and grow without the noise of LinkedIn

congrats on the launch! How are you thinking about network effects on this one? Seems like the value of this product is bound to the number of other musicians on there. Are you considering niching down to a genre/location first, or open it up completely and do a lot of paid acquisition?

I understand that The Papaya will provide two functional points: 1. Musicians share daily, such as sending some small demos 2. A trading platform for musicians and businesses So my question is, how are you going to make sure that the intellectual property rights of musicians are not being compromised? For example, demo theft

Is the data you provide customizable based on the type of user, like artists vs. managers?

Sounds an interesting concept. For the AI agent part, I'm curious what are the sources of data that it leverages?

Always loved and supported musicians! @gian_berselli @rafael_de_arruda_amado let's go!

I love the idea of having a centralized hub for musicians and businesses. Access to opportunities is so crucial.

This sounds like a much-needed solution for the music industry. I’m curious, how does the platform help artists decide where to spend their limited resources? Looking forward to seeing how it evolves!

That's an interesting concept! Not a musician myself, just dabble in FL Studio from time to time. Can you explain a bit more? I'm curious - isn't Instagram already a good tool for musicians to network? How does this differ?
