Beatoven.ai debuts Maestro, the first GenAI music model trained entirely on licensed data, ensuring fair royalties for artists.
Beatoven.ai has launched Maestro, a GenAI foundation model for music creation built entirely on licensed data. Unlike AI systems trained on scraped content, Maestro ensures that artists, composers, and rights holders are compensated through royalties whenever their contributions influence AI-generated outputs.
The challenge for AI music has been legality and fairness. Most models rely on unauthorized datasets, raising copyright issues and offering no rewards to musicians. Maestro addresses this with partnerships managed by Musical AI, a rights platform that attributes outputs to specific tracks. Current partners include Rightsify, Soundtrack Loops, Symphonic Music, Bobby Cole, Vadi Sound, and Pro Sound Effects. This curated approach provides higher-quality training data and traceable results.
Beyond generating instrumental music, Maestro can be fine-tuned for new genres, sound effects, and eventually vocals. Beatoven.ai also integrates Musical Intelligence tools that let labels and publishers analyze catalogs, enrich metadata, and surface back-catalogue tracks. For creators, this means faster discovery and new revenue opportunities. For industries like gaming and film, Maestro’s generative API delivers scalable, professional-quality music built on ethical foundations.
CEO Mansoor Rahimat Khan emphasized that Maestro is designed to push creativity forward rather than mimic humans. Industry leaders echoed the model’s significance as proof that generative AI can be built fairly. By aligning innovation with licensed rights, Beatoven.ai positions Maestro as both a creator tool and a trusted business platform, showing that ethical GenAI can reshape the music industry while rewarding its human contributors.
