Poets & Quants shared their annual list of Most Disruptive MBA startups, and Cipher is on that list! It's hard to write the story of our company without Cornell University, and specifically Cornell Tech's Startup Studio course. We're proud to represent a great campus in New York's hidden gem, Roosevelt Island (yes, that tram is still our daily commute). While we're still incredibly early in our journey, Burke and I really appreciate this recognition. Thank you to Poets&Quants We identified a major problem in our industry: over 200m brands want trending music for their short-form content, and they don't want to get sued for it. Our success in solving that problem is thanks to all of our partners in the music and media industries. From the labels that opened up their catalogs to try an innovative new licensing model, to the social media managers enjoying the chance to legally use real and viral music for their TikToks and Reels, we're grateful to all of you. As we keep building up our library and celebrating more and more viral moments with you all, I'm excited to share all our success with you in the future.

Why am I posting about next year when we’re still not even out of January? Because I’m proud to announce that Cipher has closed its first fundraising round! Thanks to strategic angel investments from Cornell University, private equity investors, and others, we’re gonna be around for more than a year. That’s plenty of time to become the #1 source of music for all social platforms. Huge thank you to everyone that’s supported us on the journey so far. Couldn’t ask for better co-founders to be doing this with in Burke Reimann and Lucas Smulders. I’m excited to keep you all posted on the great developments we have coming up. Stay tuned!

Founder visits! One of the great things about operating in New York City is the chance to meet in person - not just with amazing people in the music industry but across every industry we work with. Big thanks to Warner Music Group for hosting our quick chat today ?? ??
