Designing music discovery and licensing as the platform grows

Designing music discovery and licensing as the platform grows

Acrylic helps sports teams and brands find, evaluate, and license music for their content. I work with the founders and engineers on the buyer experience, from search and selection to the tasks that continue after a track is licensed. The first working MVP established the core search and licensing experience. Since then, my work has expanded into more precise search controls, license management, and new ways to explore music through audience information.

Acrylic music-discovery interface concepts for sports teams, showing search results and track evaluation.

Making intent clearer

Music discovery combines subjective requests with exact requirements. The recent search designs keep one entry point while letting buyers specify artist country separately from a description of the music they want. The aim is to make those requirements visible and understandable.

Carrying the workflow beyond a download

Licensing creates ongoing responsibilities. The updated designs bring documents, published links, deadlines, and renewal actions into the Licenses workspace. They distinguish usage permissions from posting deadlines and account for recovery when a license or download cannot be completed.

A system that can keep developing

Shared components and detailed interaction states support the team as the platform evolves. New Performance designs explore discovery through track and artist information, with sample data and its limits made explicit. The platform has progressed beyond the initial MVP. Recent search, licensing, and Performance artifacts show continuing design work; their individual implementation status remains unconfirmed.
