T.H.I.R.I. — Concept Map

Thesis: Sovereign infrastructure layer for artist-owned AI music. The decentralized rail beneath Suno/Udio, not a competitor to them. “Cloudflare for artist-owned music AI.”

Public launch: 2026-05-18 · Founder Edition 500 seats · Skool $1,500 tier

Execution plan: SEEKER_EXECUTION_PLAN.md — 12 apps across Cadenza + THIRI, May–August 2026

Missing From The Repo

Execution plan — ~~ship sequence, grant milestones, revenue model~~ → docs/SEEKER_EXECUTION_PLAN.md
Seeker dApp code — HTML prototype lives outside; needs folder + pull-in
Cadenza contract / spec — royalty-rail design doc and Solana program scaffold
Artist Fingerprint SDK — the open-source piece that wins the Solana Mobile grant
Grant application draft — Colosseum hackathon + rolling Builder Grant
May 18 launch plan — milestones, Founder Edition rollout, narrative arc

Suggested future folders (see SEEKER_EXECUTION_PLAN.md § VI for full tree):

production/thiri-seeker/      (React Native + MWA + Seed Vault — 7 THIRI apps)
commerce/cadenza/             (Anchor program + royalty settlement)
commerce/mint-studio/         (Mint Studio app)
commerce/collab-split/        (Collab Split app)
commerce/fan-market/          (Fan Market two-sided marketplace)
core-intelligence/fingerprint-sdk/   (open-source, grant public good)
core-intelligence/skill-logger/      (cross-app identity engine)
docs/                         (execution plan, grant app, positioning memos)

Revenue Model (per artist)

Sync licensing — direct on-chain, replaces $0.003/stream Spotify economics
Derivative revshares — remixes carry provenance; original artist earns on every mint
Fingerprint mints — other artists license your trained model for specific uses

Grant Play (Solana Mobile)

Two tracks, sequenced:

Colosseum Hackathon Q1 2026 — up to $10K, fast, co-marketing, accelerator pipeline → narrative wedge
Rolling Builder Grant — file 30 days post-launch with real usage data → depth play ($25K–$75K ask)

Positioning rule: Pitch as “first cryptographic provenance layer for AI-generated music on Solana.” NOT as “a music app.”

Open-source commitment: Artist Fingerprint SDK. Keep WoodShed core proprietary.
