Revelator offers a B2B platform for distributing, selling and licensing music online, allowing customers to upload tracks and push them to digital stores and services like Spotify and Apple Music. The product bundles marketing and analytics tools, which the company says give it a data advantage for tracking usage and payments. Revelator cites examples such as enabling Boston public radio station WBUR to track podcast plays and compensate musicians and labels. The company has a distribution partnership with Wix, powering Wix Music customers to promote and sell their music. Leadership sees opportunities for geographic expansion in Europe and Asia and plans to build a payments platform to deliver faster payments and advances, including mobile payments for emerging markets. Financially, Revelator announced a $2.5M Series A and had previously raised $3M, bringing known funding to $5.5M. Revelator provides a cloud-based platform that integrates sales, marketing, accounting and analytics into a single system to simplify workflows, automation and efficiency for independent artists and record labels. It offers a low-cost monthly Business-as-a-Service subscription and plans to generate additional revenue from bundled add-on features, transactional and marketplace commerce. Led by founder and CEO Bruno Guez and Ollie Buckwell, Global Head of Business Development, the company launched its beta in Israel serving over 800 Israeli artists. Through a strategic partnership with ACUM, the local performing rights organization, Revelator will soon offer distribution to an additional 5,000 Israeli artists. The company is pursuing a U.S. launch and global expansion via a partnership with Africori, a digital music company representing over 300 record labels and thousands of artists in Africa. Revelator raised $500K in seed funding to continue expanding operations.
