Campaign Title
Muso.ai: Learn Real Instruments Through VR Adventure!
Campaign Tagline
Gamified music education for kids and teens. Real instruments. Real learning. Real access.
Overview
What if music lessons felt like an epic adventure?
Muso.ai is a fully immersive VR music learning platform where players learn real instruments inside a gamified universe. Guided by the charismatic Billie & Muso, students embark on a fantastical journey through Harmonia—a magical world where rhythm fights chaos, chords unlock portals, and melodies shape the destiny of an entire realm.
This isn’t Guitar Hero. This is music education reimagined.
With real-time feedback, custom-built controllers, and a vibrant story-driven universe, Muso.ai helps students truly learn to play drums, guitar, keyboard, and even sing.
And we’re not stopping there.
With your help, we’re bringing Muso.ai to underserved schools around the world, starting with our launch partner SAWA—a grassroots charity in Kenya led by Cara Lawler.
The Problem
Music education is expensive, difficult to access, and often boring.
Millions of children have the talent, but not the instruments, teachers, or opportunities.
Current "music games" don’t teach real skills.
Our Solution
Muso.ai = Real music learning + VR immersion + Story-based engagement
Inside the game, kids don’t just press buttons. They:
Play real chords on a guitar controller
Practice rhythms using air-drumming sensors
Learn to sing using pitch-detection tech
Compose music to solve puzzles and progress through Harmonia
All while guided by Billie and Muso, characters from our award-winning storybooks.
Why Back This Project?
1. You're building a new future of education.
Muso.ai teaches actual skills through world-class pedagogy built into the game mechanics.
2. You're making music accessible.
For every 5 backers, we'll donate a full Muso.ai headset + controller kit to an underserved child in Kenya through our partnership with SAWA.
