Jammaround

Jammaround provides an AI-driven Artist and Repertoire (A&R) operating system designed for music businesses to discover, manage, and communicate with artists. The platform enables clients such as record labels, DJs, and music gear brands to deploy customizable AI agents that automate artist interactions. These agents can review song submissions, provide feedback, qualify leads, and collect artist data through a shareable link, which functions as an interactive assistant.

The company was founded in New Orleans by Brent Craige, Marlon Butler, and Donovan Williams. The founders, combining their backgrounds in music artist management and web engineering, initially aimed to solve challenges in music collaboration they experienced firsthand in 2020. What began as a music collaboration and career management tool has since evolved into its current AI A&R focus. The platform's features include automated song reviews, artist coaching, a centralized dashboard for tracking interactions and metadata, and integrations with other music technology tools. Revenue is generated through a credit-based system where businesses purchase credits to power their AI agent's interactions with artists.

Jammaround has achieved significant milestones, including winning a $400,000 investment at New Orleans Entrepreneur Week's IDEApitch competition in 2022, becoming the first Black-led startup to do so. In 2023, the company was selected for the Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) Talent x Opportunity (TxO) program, securing a $100,000 investment from the venture capital firm.
