Sourabh Pateriya (US)
Sourabh Pateriya is the Founder and CEO of Soundverse, an ethical AI music creation platform reshaping how music is made, attributed, and shared. A former product leader at Spotify, where he worked on music creation tools and co-invented Basic Pitch; and at Samsung on Bixby, he has spent his career at the intersection of music, artificial intelligence, and product design. With multiple patents across AI, AR, and audio, he builds tools that feel like magic to creators and fair to rights-holders. Under his leadership, Soundverse has scaled rapidly to nearly 1.8 million users with an active presence across the US, India & Europe. The platform is built on consented data and an attribution-first design philosophy.
Soundverse’s core stack includes DNA, a marketplace of artist-owned AI models; Agent, a conversational co-producer; and Trace for data attribution, watermarking, and licensing tags. The company pairs creator-friendly UX with enterprise-grade provenance and compliance. It serves consumers, prosumers, and professionals through expanding paid tiers, growing API adoption, and collaborations with educators, studios, and creative businesses, supported by a disciplined product-led growth motion.
As an electronic artist, Sourabh performs as BlueNucleus, blending Indian folk and classical colors with contemporary electronic production. Raga-tinged melodies and earthy percussion meet modern synths and club-ready grooves. That tradition-meets-technology ethos guides Soundverse’s roadmap: make professional quality accessible in a click, keep attribution intact from idea to export, and enable licensing, monetization, and collaboration across borders.
Sourabh is a member of the Forbes Technology Council, where he writes about ethical AI, attribution standards, licensing workflows, and provenance in an AI-native music economy. His north star is simple: AI should expand musical possibility without erasing the people who shape it.
