Llama Group (Paris: ALLAM) (Brussels: ALLAM):

Jamendo, the global music platform and proud member of the Winamp family, is announcing a major innovation designed to better serve its global client base: Search with AI .

Jamendo Licensing, the licensing arm of Jamendo, represents more than 300,000 tracks from over 70,000 independent artists and bands worldwide. For nearly 20 years, Jamendo Licensing has delivered high-quality music, selling licenses for every type of use, from the world’s largest companies to independent agencies, YouTubers, and even in-store playlists for retailers.

While the experience of generating new music with AI tools often falls short of professional expectations, Jamendo Licensing provides a more powerful solution: finding the right existing track, from real artists, for every project. With the launch of its brand-new platform earlier this year, Jamendo is now harnessing AI to make the music search process seamless and precise.

With just a written description (prompt) - whether typing entire sync briefs, scene outlines, pop culture references, or describing the vibe, genre, instrument, mood, or any creative idea - clients can instantly browse Jamendo’s vast catalog and discover tracks that perfectly match their needs. What was once a daunting, time-consuming task is now faster, easier, and more accurate than ever before.

The performance of the AI search is enhanced by the 180 tags (style, mood, tempo, etc.) attached to each track, making Jamendo one of the most categorized catalogs in the world.

AI Used Responsibly

While many companies have exploited music catalogs without consent to train AI models, Jamendo has taken a different path: using AI responsibly, in service of artists and clients.

“AI should be used to empower artists and creators, not exploit them,” said Alexandre Saboundjian, CEO of Jamendo and Winamp. “With Search with AI, we are proving that technology can enhance creativity while fully respecting copyright and the livelihoods of musicians.”

By integrating AI as a tool for discovery, Jamendo demonstrates that innovation and ethics can go hand in hand, setting a standard for transparency and respect in the evolving digital landscape.
