Modacity

Modacity is a US-based startup founded in 2018, aiming to revolutionize music practice through their mobile app. The company is addressing a fundamental issue highlighted by music teachers: the quality of practice as the key determinant of success for musicians. Modacity's app enhances music practice by leveraging principles of spaced repetition, flow states, smart organization, and social dynamics. The Founder & CEO, Marc Gelfo, has deeply integrated cognitive science and computer science into the development of the app, drawing from his own journey from music-school reject to touring the world with the San Francisco Symphony. With a vision to democratize music learning and its profound impact on self-development, interpersonal relationships, and society, Modacity has a compelling narrative. The startup has already made significant strides by launching in the Founder Institute Fall 2017 and commencing a closed beta program. The team has set its sights on a public launch by the end of January 2018. As a music-focused venture, Modacity presents an intriguing proposition for potential investors looking to tap into the intersection of technology and the arts.
