Challenges

A primary challenge was ensuring that the AI-generated loops felt musically authentic and customizable while keeping the interface accessible to both pros and hobbyists. Additionally, establishing product-market fit in a saturated music plugin market required a clear value proposition and careful targeting during testing. Legal considerations around sample licensing and intellectual property rights for AI-generated content also needed early planning to avoid risks down the line.
