Investment Thesis

The organization operates with a ‘musician-first’ product philosophy: building tools ‘‘we wish existed’’ by designers who are active musicians and producers, emphasizing session-born design, creative empowerment, and workflow-first features. They prioritize accelerating creators’ workflows (rather than replacing creativity) through curated, high-quality sounds, integrated plugins, and ethically-applied AI while preserving user ownership and royalty-free use of generated output.

Investment Focus

Who should take a closer look

Output Ventures is most relevant for founders raising venture-backed rounds in their stated focus areas.

Focus statement

Focused on music-creation software and audio tooling: premium plugins, instruments, FX, and expansive royalty-free sample libraries (delivered via subscription bundles like Output One) that integrate into producers' DAWs and live workflows to speed idea-to-finished-track creation.

Value Add

Product design rooted in practitioners: "Our plugins aren’t born in boardrooms, they’re born in sessions."
Musician-made, meticulously crafted content: "Every sample is meticulously crafted and curated by top sound designers and producers."
Royalty-free ownership guarantee: "100% of everything you create is royalty free and owned by you."
Ethical AI stance and implementation: Co-Producer and Re-imagine use AI but with stated limits—"Co-Producer does not learn from, train on, or generate any audio based on analyzed audio" and "Re-imagine uses ethically trained generative AI... All the sounds you generate will be one-of-a-kind."
Integrated workflow ecosystem: tight interoperability between plugins (e.g., "Drag and drop samples from Co-Producer into Arcade") and bundled subscription access (Output One) for end-to-end use from idea to mix.
Session- and performance-ready UI/features: emphasis on live/studio performance controls like XY macros, tempo-synced modulation, and drag-and-drop sample workflows.
