Auddia Inc. (NASDAQ:AUUD) ("Auddia" or the "Company"), an AI first technology company that has built a proprietary AI platform for audio identification and classification to reinvent how consumers engage with audio and how artists get discovered, today announced a Full Platform Partnership between its Discovr Radio artist promotion platform and Beatcave, Canada's premier music community platform for independent artists, producers, songwriters, and engineers.

Under the 12-month agreement, Discovr Radio becomes Beatcave's Official Membership Partner and the recommended radio promotion tool across every Beatcave membership tier.

Beatcave reaches an audience squarely aligned with Discovr Radio's core user: serious, working independent artists actively seeking radio exposure. The organization's digital channels generated more than 1.42 million views and reached over 444,000 accounts in the most recent 90-day period, with 83.1% of interactions coming from non-followers—a strong signal that Beatcave's content reaches well beyond its existing community. Notably, 43.1% of Beatcave's reach is US-based while approximately 60% of its followers are Canadian, positioning the organization as a natural bridge for Canadian artists seeking authentic US radio presence—precisely the gap Discovr Radio is built to close.

"The number one thing our members are chasing is discovery. Not streams for vanity, not playlists that go nowhere. They want real ears on their music and a way to know it's actually happening," said Jerome Ferguson, Co-Founder of Beatcave. "Discovr Radio is the first platform we've seen that closes that gap with guaranteed plays, real analytics, and pricing that makes sense for an independent artist's budget. That's why we made them our Official Membership Partner. It's a recommendation we can stand behind for every member, at every tier."

The partnership embeds Discovr Radio into Beatcave's year-round community infrastructure, giving working independent artists direct access to AI-driven radio placement, guaranteed plays, and transparent performance analytics through a community they already trust.

Key partnership components include:

Three Artist Demo Listening Sessions co-presented by Discovr Radio across Toronto, Vancouver, and a standalone member event, building on the success of the Discovr Radio session at Departure Festival + Conference earlier this year
Dual Brand activations at Beatcave's Creative Arranging Musical Projects events (CAMP) in Toronto (July 16-19, 2026) and Vancouver (October 15-18, 2026), a 4-day artist retreat focused on connecting producers and artists to develop new material
Exclusive Discounts for Beatcave Members on Discovr Radio subscriptions and campaigns
Potential US Expansion as Beatcave extends into Miami, Nashville, and Los Angeles, giving Discovr Radio a forward path into US-market activations alongside its Canadian footprint

 

"Beatcave has built something rare: a trusted, working-artist community that takes its members' careers seriously," said Theo Romeo, Chief Marketing Officer of Auddia. "This partnership puts Discovr Radio in front of exactly the artists we built the platform for—independent creatives who are ready to invest in real exposure and want to see real data on what their music is doing in the wild. After the response we saw at the Departure Festival session in Toronto, going deeper into the Canadian market with a partner like the Beatcave team was the obvious next move."

The Beatcave partnership reinforces Auddia's view of Toronto as a hub for substantial growth, building directly on the Discovr Radio brand activation at Departure Festival + Conference in May, where over 65 artist demo submissions—twice the format's capacity—signaled strong demand for the kind of artist-first programming the Beatcave partnership now scales year-round. With Dual CAMP activations on the calendar for July and October and a roadmap into Miami, Nashville, and Los Angeles via Beatcave's 2027 US expansion, Auddia and Beatcave are positioning the partnership as a long-term growth engine for independent artist acquisition on Discovr Radio.
