Ignite Music · Data A&R

We don't sell dashboards; we sell answers.

Data teams love the numbers, but artists and marketing teams just need to know what to do next. We bridge the gap between raw data and actionable strategy.

The Problem

Artists and their teams are data rich and insight poor. Tools like Chartmetric aggregate millions of data points, but they require the artist team to spend hours digging for answers. They show what happened, but not why. Decisions end up being made on "gut feeling" rather than data, and opportunities to convert social success into business growth are missed.

Our Answer

We combine proprietary AI modeling with human expertise to analyze granular post-level data. We tell you exactly what content is working, how it impacts your business, and what to post next. Think of us as Data A&R.

Why This Matters

The Algorithm Has Changed

Social platforms are now post-centric, not account-centric. Analyzing performance at the individual post level is the only way to systematically understand what the audience actually wants.

Vanity Metrics Are Dead

We look past follower counts to focus on what matters: engagement rate, reach, and retention. These are the true indicators of a healthy fanbase.

Context is King

Platform-specific content outperforms generic cross-posting. Because each platform's algorithms function differently, generic data is useless. We analyze the nuance of each platform separately.

The Social-to-Revenue Pipeline

Social performance is the leading indicator of revenue. By identifying exactly what connects with your fans, you can make smarter decisions to grow streaming, touring, merch sales, and more.
