Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Fairphonic (fairphonic.com) is a music technology company founded in 2019 and headquartered in Singapore. It develops an AI-based platform for detecting and managing digital music copyright, using audio fingerprinting to identify rights holders and to track where and how recordings are used across streaming and other music platforms. The output of that detection is intended to be validated royalty reporting that platforms can act on directly.

No public source documents retrieved for this profile discuss Fairphonic. The three documents fetched today cover unrelated subjects — post-acquisition startup shutdowns in software, telehealth, biotech, insurtech, freight and e-commerce; the collapse of audio hardware and music-software brands such as Native Instruments, Drop, Empire Ears and AURALiC; and Sony's PlayStation studio acquisitions. None of them mention Fairphonic, so no funding rounds, metrics, events, headcount, competitor set or third-party validation could be sourced. All substantive information in this profile therefore derives from internally held records rather than from the public web material supplied.
