O que Whyd faz

Whyd is a free social music platform designed for music lovers to keep, play, and share all of the internet's music. It is the missing link between places where people post music to stream, like YouTube and Soundcloud, and the places where people share music, like Facebook, and Twitter. The internet is the biggest source of music ever. There are billions of songs available to stream for free. But the music landscape is fragmented, between the multitude of different platforms where people post music, and the places where people share and talk about music. They believe that music lovers need their own platform, that serves as a tool to organize and listen to the web, and a social network that is seamlessly integrated into the listening and curation experience.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building a social music platform and speaker that lets music lovers find, keep, play, and share music from across the web. It connects fragmented sources like YouTube and SoundCloud to social networks such as Facebook and Twitter, making streaming and sharing music simple and beautiful.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA and Paris, Île-de-France, France. After YC, the company would be based in San Francisco.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We split our time between San Francisco and Paris to access both the US tech scene and European music markets. Post-YC, it makes sense to base the company in San Francisco to be closer to investors and strategic partners.
