Audiomack has reached a milestone of 50 million monthly active users (MAU) globally, a 31% year-over-year jump fueled by its dominance in emerging markets and “lean-forward” listener tools.
Why it matters
In a streaming landscape dominated by algorithmic giants like Spotify and Apple Music, Audiomack is proving there is a massive, underserved market for human-curated discovery and direct creator-to-fan interaction.
By the Numbers
50 Million: Total monthly active users worldwide.
31%: Year-over-year growth rate in 2025.
21: Number of African countries where Audiomack tops the music app charts.
The Strategy: Africa and Beyond
The platform’s growth isn’t just about volume; it’s about localization.
Dominance in Africa: By focusing on regional charts and editorial coverage in dozens of countries, Audiomack has become the primary gateway for “breaking” local sounds before they reach a global audience.
Human-Powered Curation: While competitors lean on AI, Audiomack doubles down on human curators to identify niche trends and micro-communities.
Interactive Listening: New tools allowing fans to remix and reinterpret tracks have turned passive listeners into active creators, increasing session times.
What’s Next: “Audiomack Pro”
To capitalize on this momentum, the company is shifting focus toward the independent creator economy.
The Launch: This year, the platform will debut Audiomack Pro, a premium tier for artists.
The Value Prop: Pro will offer self-managed artists advanced analytics and specialized promotional tools to help them scale their reach without a traditional label.
The Bottom Line: Audiomack is successfully carving out a “middle-class” ecosystem for artists who prioritize community engagement over raw stream counts.
“Our growth reflects our dedication to building the best possible music experience for forward-thinking fans, creators, and curators around the world.” — David Ponte, Audiomack Co-Founder and CMO.
