Our take
Traditionally, making music has relied on instruments, musicians, and a lot of coordination. Splice turns the music industry on its head by streamlining the process of creating, collaborating, and sharing music.
Acting like a GitHub for musicians, Splice sets itself apart from other music production software by offering samples and loops to its customers for a relatively affordable monthly flat fee, while simultaneously allowing creative artists to sell their sounds for royalty-free use. As such, the platform has been used by more than 2.5 million users, from bedroom DJs to mainstream artists such as Eminem, Ariana Grande, and Drake.
Splice co-founder Steve Martocci brings a track record from his previous startup, GroupMe, which was sold to Skype for $85 million just a year after launching. Splice is now valued at nearly half a billion dollars and is focusing on partnerships and adding more samples to its library to work on its product and attract new customers.
