Tracksby

Tracksby (Tracks.by) was a music marketing startup that helped artists and their managers release new music and videos through deep Facebook integration, social launch campaigns, fan email capture, and YouTube/VEVO embeds, turning each release into a fan-growth campaign. Listed on the a16z investment list, the early-2010s company is now defunct - tracks.by no longer resolves, tracksby.com is parked for sale, the @TracksBy Twitter account is gone, and its GitHub account has been inactive since 2012. No public API surface was found, so this profile records an inactive portfolio lead with no artifacts to enrich.

Tracksby is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Music, Marketing, Social Media, and Defunct.
