In the realm of today's high-tech music landscape, one player stands a cut above the rest: Triller, an AI-driven company, is reshaping the industry's future. This piece sets out to unpack the story of Triller, a company that was born from the fusion of music and artificial intelligence and has since quietly become a major player in the AI space.

The inception of Triller can be traced back to two AI engineers' ingenuity. They sought to revolutionize the industry by designing an AI music app that would later become the nucleus of today's Triller. The mission was simple but pioneering: to create a platform where music and video could seamlessly merge with the help of AI, note this was 3 years before TikTok entered the game.

When the next iteration of Triller was introduced, the original AI music app underwent an intriguing fusion. The AI company Mashtraxx and Amplify.AI were absorbed into Triller, catalyzing its ascent into becoming a powerhouse in the AI space.

The combined force of Mashtraxx and Amplify.AI supplied Triller with a highly qualified team of AI experts. Mashtraxx, formed by AI Phd’s and an entire team of AI experts from Oxford and Cambridge, had dedicated over a decade to creating advanced AI technology around video, music and social. Amplify.AI, on the other hand, was a Silicon Valley gem, showcasing the brightest minds from one of the world's leading tech region.

Fast forward to today, Triller boasts an impressive user base of over 400 million registered users. What makes Triller's AI particularly exceptional is its user engagement rates. With subsidiary products such as Cliqz, Triller has allowed celebrities and brands to reach their audience via SMS. The outcomes? As hight as a staggering 90% open rate and over 70% engagement rate. These figures eclipse the typical rates seen in traditional digital marketing platforms, underscoring the effectiveness of Triller's AI in enhancing engagement and connection. This has led some of the largest companies in the world to working with Triller including Pepsi, Mcdonalds, Warner Brothers, Paramount, Sony, L’oreal and thousands of others. Through its wholly owned subsidiary Julius Triller connects 25,000 brands with over 1.5 million influencers, all automated.

As the core of Triller's success, its AI holds more than 40 patents and delivers extraordinary results for brands, influencers, and celebrities. It's no surprise that Triller's AI registers an average 41.5% engagement rate compared to the 1.9% on Instagram for brand posts. The AI system also boasts an average 36% opt-in rate, a stark contrast to the 4% opt-in rate for SMS marketing. In terms of message open rates, Triller's AI messaging displays an 85% average, dwarfing the 21.1% average open rate in other SMS marketing campaigns. Lastly, the AI yields a 24% average click-through rate (CTR), outshining the 0.5% average CTR seen in display ads.

Triller's significance extends beyond its impressive figures and technological innovation. The company has forged a new path for the music industry. It offers a refreshing and dynamic platform for artists and fans alike, uniting them in a vibrant, AI-enhanced social networking space.

Triller's AI model is also instrumental in driving its other enterprises, including its wholly-owned companies like BKFC and Fite.TV. BKFC, also known as Bare Knuckle Boxing, is officially recognized as the fastest growing combat sport globally, thanks to Triller's AI and strategic prowess.

The AI technology has also propelled Fite.TV, the largest combat sports app, to reach 6.5 million households and host over 2,000 events annually. As a testament to its impact, Triller successfully raised over $300 million at valuations higher than $2 billion, exhibiting strong momentum towards its anticipated NYSE public market trading.

Indeed, Triller's success story is multifaceted. It isn't just a tale of innovation and technological advancement; it's a chronicle of strategic mergers, daring entrepreneurship, and visionaries' foresight. By integrating different AI technologies from Mashtraxx and Amplify.AI, Triller has positioned itself as a formidable player in the AI industry. This fusion of top-tier AI expertise forms an integral part of Triller's DNA, propelling the company towards achieving remarkable milestones.

Notably, Triller has quietly and effectively embedded its AI across virtually every social media platform, including Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and WhatsApp. This stealthy strategy has allowed Triller to connect to a staggering 750 million monthly interactions, demonstrating the magnitude of Triller's reach and influence in the AI and social media realm. Each of those interactions a potential monetization event for Triller.

Despite being a social network in its own right, and a commendable TikTok alternative, Triller has leveraged its powerful AI to become a Trojan horse in the digital space. By linking up with other social media platforms, Triller's AI is uniquely positioned to become a de facto tool for brands, influencers, and celebrities looking to reach and engage with their audiences more effectively.

Triller's AI-driven approach allows brands to bypass traditional marketing hurdles and connect directly with their target audiences. This creates a win-win scenario: consumers gain personalized brand interactions, and brands secure higher engagement rates. It's an evolution that is reshaping how we perceive advertising and brand communication, presenting a future where AI is the norm, not the exception.

Further proof of Triller's dominance in the AI realm lies in the company's recognition as the most innovative technology company of 2023. This accolade underlines the company's progressive approach and commitment to leveraging AI in reshaping not only the music industry, but also broader sectors.

Through its strategic ownership of assets like Fite.TV and BKFC, Triller has broadened its reach into the combat sports industry. Its AI-driven marketing strategies have supported BKFC's emergence as the fastest-growing combat sport in the world. This strategy paints a vivid picture of Triller's far-reaching ambitions and its potential to disrupt a multitude of industries.

As Triller gears up for its anticipated NYSE listing, the company’s valuation continues to soar, buoyed by the promise of its cutting-edge AI and its rapidly expanding user base. This impending public listing presents a lucrative investment opportunity. Investors are closely watching Triller, with its 500-million strong user base, innovative AI technology, and strategic ownership of key industry players.

Triller certainly isn’t without its controversy. In 2020 there were accusation of Triller inflating its numbers. When asked about this issue Triller’s Executive Chairman Bobby Sarnevesht said

“We have always been the underdog. When your taking on the biggest companies in the world who also control the press narrative were going get punched. But were still standing and stronger than ever. Part of what scares them and while they were able to create that narrative is we aren’t playing by their rules. Their rules are like the roach motel you can check in but you cant check out. Bring us all your users and then we will charge you to access you own users. Then they create worlds like DAU and MAU to explain to the investing community how much they have trapped them and can take money from them. We are the opposite we make money off of helping creators expand their reach and connect with their audience directly so those made up metrics do not apply in the same way. Quite the opposite.”

Triller also has been at odds leading to litigation with a number of the major music labels. Triller had the following in response:

“Virtually every social network is at odds with the labels. The difference is since they control the press narrative it isn’t really the main topic, but there isn’t a social network that hasn’t been at odds with them, and always will be. We are no different, litigation for the labels is part of their every day business”

We remind you it wasn’t that long ago a controversial tech company that no one believed could make money went public called Facebook, or for almost a decade wall street routinely panned a book selling company that “couldn’t find a way to make a profit” and was “sure to fail” called Amazon.

Triller's growth story is a testament to the transformative power of AI. From its beginnings as an AI music app designed by two engineers, to its rise as an AI powerhouse following strategic mergers, the company has firmly established its footprint in the global AI landscape. Its innovative applications of AI have transformed social networking, brand communication, and even the combat sports industry.

Triller's story is one of innovation, disruption, and far-reaching impact. As it continues to harness its AI capabilities, the company is poised to set new industry standards and reshape the future of music, social media, and beyond. In the fast-paced world of tech and AI, Triller is not just a player; it's a game-changer.
