AI finally pays up: Beatoven.ai’s new Maestro AI music generation model promises royalties for artists

By working with rights management platform Musical AI, the company says it can identify which licensed songs or musical elements influenced each generated track, and distribute royalties accordingly. In theory, that means whenever Maestro’s outputs rely on a specific work, the rightsholder gets paid.

Meanwhile, Sean Power, CEO of Musical AI, frames the partnership as a blueprint: “We’re showing the world what a fair AI deal looks like: attribution, respect of rights, and ongoing payouts every time a work contributes to an output. Maestro is a major step towards this better future.”
