Problem
Retail, hospitality, and other physical‑space brands rely on licensed music catalogs that are shared across competitors, incur per‑location royalty fees, and remain static regardless of foot traffic, weather, or time of day, leading to high costs and a lack of sonic differentiation.
Solution
Tonada provides an AI‑driven music platform that generates original, brand‑exclusive tracks on demand. The system composes 100 % original music for each client, eliminating the need for performance rights organizations and any per‑play royalties. Real‑time data such as occupancy, foot traffic, weather, and time of day feed into the AI, allowing the soundtrack to adapt dynamically to the environment. Clients receive a private catalog that no other brand can access, creating a unique sonic identity that reinforces brand perception. The service is delivered via a flat‑rate subscription, simplifying budgeting and scaling across any number of locations.
Target Audience
Primary customers are retail chains, hospitality groups, and other multi‑location brands that need a differentiated, cost‑effective in‑store audio experience.
