Discoverfeed

What Discoverfeed does

DiscoverFeed is a Tokyo-based music and data technology company that builds an integrated Web3 ecosystem for creators and music industry participants. The company was founded in June 2018 as a Japanese kabushiki kaisha (stock corporation) and operates from headquarters in Tokyo's Roppongi district with a 11-50 employee headcount and 89 million JPY of registered capital.

The company's core technology stack combines generative AI music production with blockchain-based rights management and decentralized data storage. Its flagship product, DAIM (Decentralized AI Music), is a browser-based platform co-developed with DMC LAB, A-NEXUS, and JasmyLab that delivers end-to-end music creation from AI lyric writing, composition, vocal generation, and music video production through professional artist finishing to blockchain-based rights registration and smart contract revenue distribution. Its infrastructure product, D-DMC (Decentralized Data Management Center), is an IPFS-based decentralized data center under construction in Oita Prefecture, Japan, with approximately 7,000 TB of initial capacity scaling to up to 120 PB maximum, providing creators with free 1 TB storage and pay-as-you-go overage fees. MY Album is a creator-to-fan content storage and sharing service layered on D-DMC, positioning fans as curators who can organize, edit, and share creator content.

The business model is multi-stream and consumer-creator oriented: storage usage fees on D-DMC beyond the free 1 TB tier, transaction fees from music sales and streaming on DAIM, marketplace commissions from DMCCOIN cryptocurrency payments through a PayFi ecosystem built with festival organizer NEON PROJECTS, monthly VIP membership fees from the DMCC Membership Program, storage provider revenue share from co-business operators contributing D-DMC capacity, and usage-based fees for AI music production. Primary customer segments are individual creators (YouTubers, TikTokers, streamers, idols, influencers), fans acting as curators, and entertainment industry participants. Distribution relies on product-led growth through the browser-accessible DAIM and MY Album apps, event-driven marketing (notably the Amsterdam Dance Event), and a community-led channel strategy leveraging partnerships with We Rave You (dance music media), NEON PROJECTS (festival organizer), and a capital alliance with TSE Standard-listed Trade Works (code 3997).

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Splice: Music creation platform offering samples, loops, and AI-assisted tools for producers, with a marketplace model. Comparable to DAIM's creator tooling and asset-based music production approach, though Splice focuses on samples rather than full AI song generation.
• TuneCore: Established DIY music distribution service owned by Believe, enabling indie artists to distribute to major streaming platforms and collect royalties. Comparable to DiscoverFeed's music distribution and revenue-sharing focus, though TuneCore uses traditional (not blockchain) infrastructure.
• DistroKid: Leading DIY music distribution platform enabling independent artists to release music to major streaming services. Directly comparable to DiscoverFeed's self-described 'music distribution' positioning and the distribution leg of the DAIM platform.
• Sound.xyz: Web3-native music platform enabling artists to release music as NFTs and engage fans directly. Comparable to DiscoverFeed's Web3 monetization layer (DMCCOIN, smart-contract royalty distribution) and creator-fan engagement model via MY Album.
• Suno: AI music generation platform that enables users to create full songs (vocals, lyrics, instrumentation) from text prompts. Highly comparable to DAIM's core AI songwriting/composition/vocal capability, though Suno lacks DiscoverFeed's blockchain distribution and decentralized storage stack.
• Udio: AI music generation platform focused on high-quality song creation from text prompts. Directly comparable to DAIM's generative AI music capability, competing for the same creators in dance/electronic and broader music genres.
• Audius: Decentralized music streaming and discovery platform built on Web3 infrastructure with token-based artist incentives. Comparable to DiscoverFeed's combination of music platform, blockchain-based rights, and crypto-native monetization (DMCCOIN).

Broad incumbents

• BandLab: Large-scale social music creation platform with millions of users and integrated distribution to streaming services. Comparable to DAIM's creator-focused music production and distribution workflow, though BandLab does not focus on AI generation or Web3.

Emerging players

• AIVA: AI music composition assistant focused on generating original scores and compositions for creators. Comparable to DAIM's AI composition capabilities, though AIVA focuses on instrumental scoring rather than end-to-end vocal and lyric generation.
• Royal: Web3 music investment platform enabling fans to buy royalty shares of songs as tokens. Comparable to DiscoverFeed's blockchain-based rights and revenue-distribution approach via smart contracts, though Royal focuses on fan-investment rather than creator tooling.
