Founded in Prague by Fred Herout, Music Magnet emerged from the recognition that music rights management was unnecessarily complex and inefficient. Having witnessed the challenges faced by artists and rights holders, Fred set out to develop innovative solutions that would transform how music is tracked, recognized, and monetized.
Since our founding, we’ve grown from a small startup to a pioneering force in music recognition technology, combining cutting-edge AI with human expertise to achieve unprecedented accuracy. Today, we’re proud to offer solutions that help Collective Management Organizations (CMOs), Performance Rights Organizations (PROs), and venues ensure that artists receive the royalties they deserve.
Our story is still being written, and we’re excited to continue revolutionizing the music rights industry, making it more transparent, efficient, and fair for everyone involved.
Fred brings over 15 years of experience in the music and technology sectors to Music Magnet. With a background in both music production and software development, Fred identified the gap in music rights management and founded Music Magnet to bridge this divide. He leads our strategic vision and oversees all aspects of product development and client relationships.
Fred collaborates with a talented network of freelance specialists in software development, data science, music analysis, and business development to deliver our innovative solutions.

Our research collaborations help us stay at the cutting edge of music recognition technology and metadata management.
We’re always open to exploring new partnerships that can help advance our mission of creating a more equitable music ecosystem.
