Kalshi is the largest prediction market in America and the only federally regulated exchange where people can trade on the outcome of future events. From elections and economic indicators to sports, entertainment, and music moments, Kalshi turns opinions into markets.
​Within music, Kalshi allows users to trade on outcomes across chart performance, streaming milestones, album releases, festival headliners, and major industry moments, creating a new way for fans and artists to engage with culture.

​Plates is an AI-powered marketing intelligence platform for the music industry. Marketers and artist managers are drowning in data; every TikTok surge needs investigating, and every significant playlist add needs an email. Plates uses AI and data to make your music marketing easier, and even suggests creative ideas to help connect artists with new audiences.
​Built by three former Universal Music Group executives who spent 15 years building the company's data and analytics backbone, Plates now serves 30 paying customers including Disney Music Group, Big Loud, and Red Light Management, with over 50 companies in active trials.

The future of music is being built without most of the world's music. Less than 6% of AI music training data — and the evaluation metrics built on it — represents non-Western traditions. Yet, 5.5B+ people's musical heritage uses tuning systems, scales, and rhythmic structures that current AI cannot understand, generate, evaluate, or recommend.
​Motif (Techstars ’25) builds the infrastructure to solve these issues at each layer: culturally-aware datasets, novel music models, enrichment tools to improve MIR, and evaluation metrics based on research submitted to top-tier conferences, alongside a team of ex-Microsoft/ex-Apple engineers. The company empowers the capabilities of AI music platforms, streaming services, sync libraries, music labels, and research institutions.
Special thank-you to Cherie Hu & Water & Music for co-hosting, and to DistroKid for their continue support!
