Launched 11 months ago after a year in beta,  Souncharts monitors social, charts, playlists and radio airplay data in real-time. The startup is already serving 250 enterprise clients from 23 countries including all three major music groups and many independent labels, publishers and management companies.

“Soundcharts processes, analyzes and archives a mass of information in real-time and gives meaning to this data thanks to an intuitive personalized dashboard and automated reports” comments David Weiszfeld, CEO and founder of Soundcharts. “What is magical about Soundcharts is that we help artists, managers, product managers, digital marketers, sales team, radio programmers, playlists curators, brands as well as with the A&R discovery process. We provide a service to anyone serious about doing business with artists or more generally music content. This puts Soundcharts at a central position within the ecosystem. "

In June of this year, Soundcharts won the 10th anniversary edition of Midemlab the international pitching competition for innovative music-related startups held at Midem.
