What Arpeggi Labs does

Arpeggi Labs, Inc., founded in 2021 and headquartered in San Francisco, operates the Kits AI platform, a self-serve AI audio production suite aimed primarily at independent music producers, vocalists, and content creators. The platform's core capabilities are AI voice cloning, AI singing generation from a library of 100+ royalty-free artist voices, vocal removal, stem splitting, AI mastering, vocal blending, harmonies generation, text-to-speech, and a vocal designer, all delivered through a web studio, a desktop application, and a developer API. The differentiator relative to generic voice models is ethically licensed training data: artists contribute vocal data directly through the Kits Earn program and earn passive revenue when their voice is used, positioning the company against both unauthorized-scraping competitors and the high cost of traditional studio vocal production.

Underneath the consumer surface, the company originated as a Web3 music collaboration startup and retains adjacent infrastructure including a browser-based digital audio workstation, NFT minting, and blockchain-based music collaboration tooling. Revenue mechanics are diversified across three streams: a freemium subscription model with paid plans starting at $10/month, API access for developer and enterprise integration, and revenue-sharing payouts to artists via Kits Earn (with artists reportedly retaining up to 90% of primary sale proceeds in the NFT flow). Go-to-market is product-led: a no-credit-card free tier, global self-serve sign-up, and a community of producer testimonials drive top-of-funnel acquisition, while a developer API opens an embedded integration channel. Customer evidence to date is concentrated in long-tail SMB and individual creators across music production, music law, and musical theater; no enterprise or label logos are disclosed. The company has raised approximately $14.2 million cumulatively across a September 2022 $5.1 million seed led by Andreessen Horowitz and a February 2023 round that secured $9.1 million from 21 undisclosed investors toward an $11 million target, with a co-founder and CEO (Evan Dhillon), co-founder (James Pastan), and co-founder/CTO (Kyle Dhillon) at the helm.
