Suno’s mission is to help people rediscover the joy of making music, just like when they were kids. Remember how children sing to themselves, create instruments out of everyday objects, and let their imaginations run wild? Somewhere along the way, many adults lose that sense of play and exploration when it comes to music. Suno aims to change that.
With Suno’s platform, anyone can create a song with just a simple idea. In the eight months since its launch, an impressive 10 million people have already made music using Suno. While Grammy-winning artists use the platform, the core user base consists of everyday people making music, often for the first time.
The impact of Suno is already evident. Producers are crate digging, friends are exchanging memes, and streamers are co-creating songs with stadium-sized audiences. Suno has helped an artist who lost his voice bring his lyrics back to life and enabled teachers to transform lessons into lyrics and stories into songs. The heartwarming stories of people moved to tears by songs created with Suno highlight the platform’s potential to touch lives.
Suno’s $125 million funding round includes an incredible group of partners, such as Lightspeed Venture Partners, Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, Matrix, and Founder Collective. They are also working closely with trusted advisors, including 3LAU, Aaron Levie, Alexandr Wang, Amjad Masad, Andrej Karpathy, Aravind Srinivas, Brendan Iribe, Flosstradamus, Fred Ehrsam, Guillermo Rauch, and Shane Mac.
The funding will be used to accelerate product development and grow Suno’s team of music makers, music lovers, and technologists. Suno believes that their community of musicians deserves the very best tools, and building those tools requires the very best talent with both technological expertise and a genuine love for music.
Suno invites anyone who wants to be part of this journey and help shape the future of music to join them. They are working hard on major updates and look forward to sharing more with their community soon.
As Mikey, Co-Founder & CEO of Suno, stated, “Today, we are excited to announce we’ve raised $125 million to build a future of music where technology amplifies, rather than replaces, our most precious resource: human creativity.”
