Evershare.io is a platform that enables fans to own a share of an artist's music income under Income Share Agreements (ISA). An ISA is an agreement between the recipient and the donors whereby the recipient agrees to share a percentage of the income generated from their project that they have raised money for. Using blockchain technology, the company is building a new way for artists and fans to engage and share the journey to musical success. For just £12 a year, an artist or band can submit their music to Evershare upon which the customer service team will help the artists or band to release their music tracks across major streaming companies such as Apple Music, Spotify, and Deezer. The artists also get to keep 100% of royalties they earn from the release of their albums or singles. They will use the investment to support and bring talent that is less heard or unknown to fans and break the unhealthy oligopoly that exists in the music publishing industry.

Endlesss is a cloud-connected mobile and desktop app that turns music creation into a live, collaborative social event where musicians and fans can interact in real-time from anywhere in the world. The company argues that despite users making music, sharing that piece of music is a long and lonely process that takes days or months, requires multiple different apps and services, and carries no guarantee on whether those songs would be heard or not. Endlesss aims to change this via its software. The company witnessed over 9,000 sign-ups in May 2021, oversaw over 40,000 jams and 2.6 million riffs being created in 2020, and has spread across 100+ countries. Endlesss aspires to dominate the music creation software market that is expected to grow to $1.86 billion by 2027, up from $884 million in 2020. The company has received acclaim from entities such as Verge, TechCrunch and Pitchfork. Endlesss states it will use the investment to grow its team, develop new features, boost marketing, and promote Research & Development (R&D) to grow its business.
