Independent Music Needs Independent Technology

As industry consolidation threatens both creative and technological independence, we're committed to building and protecting alternatives that serve artists and rightsholders.

About Doubly

First and foremost, we're a record label and publisher. We believe in creating music and technology on our own terms. We are 100% bootstrapped and self-funded, meaning we're not beholden to any outside investors.

We build and maintain technology that powers our music operations. Now we're expanding our tech stack to empower other rightsholders. By sharing these tools, we're ensuring that the future of music technology remains independent.

Our Team

Ninety9Lives and Pretzel Logos

Our founding team has a proven track record of building and scaling successful music and technology companies. Together, we co-founded Ninety9Lives (in 2015) and Pretzel (in 2017), both of which we sold in 2021.

In early 2025, we reacquired Ninety9Lives. We're excited to breathe new life into the label and continue to build technology that empowers ourselves and other rightsholders.
