- Funding Details
- Seed was self-funded by the founders, who are successful serial entrepreneurs. Benchmark Capital was the only venture capital firm, providing $3.5 million Series A funding and an additional credit line worth $2 million.
- Competitors
- No direct competitors. Secondary competitors are all mobile games. A notable and successful music-related game is the Tap Tap series from Tapulous. However, even though thousands of games are available in the iTunes App Store, our first product, TuneWiki Social Media Player, took just a month to rise above the clutter and become a top-5 app worldwide on the iPhone. It was also named The New York Times "application of the week."
- Product Description
- Converging music, mobile, games and advertising into a terrific new monetization platform is LyricsLegend's call. Lyrics are popular in search. We created a delivery system that gives consumers total mobile music and game immersion in a terrific new way. This follows the worldwide success of our social media player product. LyricsLegend will sell music in meaningful quantities, deliver advertising in a new way and create new mobile entertainment.
- Market Opportunity
- We can sell hundreds of millions of song "game cartridges" every year, and launch new advertising channels. Several cell phone makers and music labels are partnering with us. Mobile entertainment and gaming experts think this is one of the most promising offerings to ever come to the mobile market.
- DEMO Says
- Leveraging its great relationships with the music recording industry to gain exclusive license to lyrics libraries online, TuneWiki is now using that asset to deliver some of the most engaging music games available for iPhone and other mobile devices. TuneWiki's LyricsLegend is addictive, so much so that it has caught the attention of handset manufacturers around the world as the application that will drive adoption of next-generation smartphones.
