## About

Based in Paris, France, and founded in 2021 by its CEO Kevin Primicerio, Simon de Kinkelin, and CTO Lancelot Owczarczak, Pianity operates as a music focused NFT marketplace. The company raised USD 1 million from national and international investors from May 12 to May 19, 2021. In March 2022, Pianity raised USD 6.5 million in seed funding co-led by new investors Big Brain Holdings, Digital Renaissance, and LongHash Ventures.

The company offers a platform where musicians and their communities gather to create, sell, buy, and collect songs in limited editions. It provides free access to audio files and ad-free streaming, and users can earn revenue whenever the music is sold. It also provides dashboards for artists’ NFT releases and stores albums, singles, EPs, live concerts, and DJ sets.

The company plans to use the seed funding to partner with major music companies worldwide. In addition, the company will expand its headcount with a world-class team of country managers and artist relations managers. It also plans to open offices in the US and Latin America to support its expanded reach across the music industry. The seed funding will also support the development of a mobile application and additional functionality for the company's streaming services, such as creating an NFT playlist and building a library.
