Award for best state startup at the San Sebastian Film Festival
In addition to this round, they have recently received the award for the best state startup in the contest of the prestigious San Sebastian Film Festival and have been selected as one of the 10 startups, among hundreds of international candidates, to be part of Culttech Accelerator in Vienna. A reference program for startups in the culture sector that will prepare them to expand their business at a European level.
With Motmo.pro we wanted to offer a solution that prevents knowledge from being lost, allowing subscribers to learn from the artists themselves that they are the only ones who can certify what a work really is. The artists themselves offer all the necessary information and practical demonstration of how their themes should be interpreted.
Bruno de Zabala, CEO of Motmo.pro.
For a long time, musicians from all over the world have faced a great problem, that of learning to play a song correctly, since official tablatures have hardly been published for more than 30 years. Motmo.pro solves this problem so that anyone can enjoy a song avoiding ending up on third-party sites with simplified and low-quality versions or trying to figure out what bands are playing in their live concert videos. To do this, they have developed a solution that, in addition to including the original artist, includes an interactive player.
Currently, the platform has more than 700 songs from groups such as Mägo de Oz, Shinova, Siloé, Kaotiko, Hamlet, Maren, Non Servium, Nunatak or Kaotiko, among others, classified into five levels of difficulty.
With this round, the Motmo team is going to incorporate the key profiles to finish forming the team, incorporate into its catalog the best national artists with whom they are already doing business, begin to incorporate international artists and develop new functionalities in your platform.
