A founder story from our portfolio at Inspira Labs
Six months ago, Joel Roberts, founder & CEO of HAiO | AI Music-Fi, reached out to us with a challenge.
He had a big idea — and a bigger ambition: “Let’s give music creation back to the people. AI-powered, Web3-native, and owned by the community.”
But like every ambitious founder, Joel needed more than just belief.
He needed infrastructure. Partners. Launch plans. Real traction.
He needed to bring HAiO from idea to impact.
The HAiO Vision
HAiO isn’t just another AI project.
It’s a full-stack Web3 music platform, where AI Agents compose, curate, and distribute music — while users own the outcome. From auto-generated tracks and smart playlists to livestream agents and tokenized incentives, HAiO is redefining what a music platform looks like.
The mission?
To break free from gatekeepers and build the first decentralized music ecosystem run by creators, fans, and algorithms alike.
The Growth That Followed
Over the last six months, HAiO has scaled faster than most could imagine:
220,000+ AI-generated tracks
35,000+ user-created playlists
470,000+ wallets connected
280K+ MAU | 15K+ DAU
Ranked #20 AI dApp on DappRadar
Integrated with 10+ major wallets
It wasn’t just hype — it was product-led growth.
And the community responded.
The Launch Moment
HAiO didn’t just go live. It launched with precision:
SOLD OUT across 4 major launchpads:
Activated on ChainGPT Pad and eesee.io launch pools
Listed on KuCoin Exchange and Raydium Protocol shortly after
This wasn’t a lucky break — it was the result of structured execution, community momentum, and a founder who kept building.
The Ecosystem
HAiO is now integrated and supported by some of the strongest players in the space:
0G, Solayer Labs, Superteam, Transak, LI.FI, Bitget Wallet, SafePal and others.
Together, they form the backbone of HAiO’s music–Web3 infrastructure — from wallets and feedback loops to data agents and listing partners.
What Comes Next?
HAiO is just getting started.
With the $HAIO token now live and trading, the team is focused on growing the agent ecosystem, scaling reward mechanisms, and expanding into new formats like livestream monetization, NFT staking, and SDK integrations.
This is a long-term play — and one we’re proud to support.
At Inspira Labs, we’ve seen many ideas.
But some feel inevitable the moment they land.
HAiO was one of them.
To Joel and the HAiO team — thank you for letting us be a part of your journey!
To the rest of the world — the soundtrack of Web3 has only just begun.
