OverviewStructured DataIssuesContributorsActivity
Contents

Audius is a company that has developed a platform designed for musicians that are both signed or unsigned to labels. The company was founded by Forrest Browning, Ranidu Lankage, and Roneil Rumburg in 2018, in San Francisco, California, United States.

The platform is designed to generate time-stamped records for creative works to register assets to the Audius network. The network is decentralized and secured by blockchain technology to protect and verify metadata attributions. Audius allows users to discover new content that can be verified through authenticity, and its system of attribution.

Audius will be distributed with a fixed genesis distribution and a continuous, controlled emission. The choice of an ongoing issuance launch is based on a desire to constantly align network growth with new entrants and their relative contributions, rather than concentrating managerial power in the hands of early entrants.
