Problem
Fans and creators frequently remix popular songs without permission, leading to widespread unauthorized versions and unclaimed royalties for rights holders. Existing tools for remixing often require musical expertise or lack legal pathways for distribution and revenue sharing.
Solution
HITBOX offers a web-based platform that enables anyone to create, share, and monetize song remixes legally, without needing musical training. Its audio engine automatically aligns pitch and tempo, allowing users to add vocals, melodies, drums, and bass, as well as adjust speed and apply effects. Remix creators purchase a HITBOX Drop Pass, which grants access to licensed stems and the right to distribute their version. Artists set the price and availability of Drop Passes, and royalties from streams and sales are split between the original rights holders and the remixing fan.
Target Audience
Primary customers are music fans and amateur creators who want to produce and monetize remixes, and recording artists or labels seeking a controlled channel to monetize fan‑generated versions of their songs.
