Beatoven.ai launches fully licensed generative AI music model

Unlike other AI music tools that rely on scraped datasets, Maestro has been trained through official licensing partnerships managed by Musical AI, a rights management platform that attributes outputs to specific tracks. Current data partners include Rightsify, Soundtrack Loops, Symphonic Music, Bobby Cole, Vadi Sound, and Pro Sound Effects, with more expected.

Ed Newton-Rex, CEO of Fairly Trained and a long-time advocate for ethical AI training, called it “compelling evidence that generative AI doesn’t need to be built by scraping the music of the world’s musicians.” Sean Power, CEO of Musical AI, said the model demonstrates what a fair AI licensing deal looks like, combining attribution, respect for rights, and payouts every time a contribution is used.
