I started Hark because I'm a musician and most of my friends are musicians. Everyone knows that the music industry is messed up. 97% of artists don't see any money from streaming platforms, and 50% of all royalty payments are going to the top 0.01% of artists. The payout per stream continues to go down each year while streaming platforms gain more and more profits. Yet no one has done anything about it. So I though, why don't I give it a shot? I'm an engineer who knows how to build products. My solution: Hark. A non-profit music streaming service that uses a user-centric payment model to pay your subscription directly to only the artists that you listen to. Hark is still in the development stage, so gaining traction is the biggest key to success. Building the technology is the easy part, taking on an entire industry that values profit over art is the hard part.
