Who are we?
Ishlab is a NY based Next Generation Business to Business Music Curation & Marketplace. Direct Service and SaaS - It's kind of like the Etsy for b2b music, or the Amazon meets IBM's Watson for b2b music. Current parallel solutions only provide a fraction of Ishlab’s capabilities.
For years, Ishlab’s team has had success manually curating music selections for clients from Vogue and Christian Dior to ESPN and ABC. Ishlab is now building patented and patent pending technology that automatically analyzes, curates and legally delivers music selections to businesses via an interactive marketplace, curation and rights clearance platform. It lets music content providers (artists, DJs, record labels, publishers and management firms) monetize their assets and gives users (ie ad agencies, TV production companies, retail and hospitality companies) better music, faster, easier and cheaper.
