aidar: Artist Scouting

AIDAR is a scouting platform for people who find artists for a living. You describe who you are looking for once — genre, region, career stage, follower range, release cadence, reference artists. AIDAR turns that brief into a scouting agent that looks for artists who match and ranks them by fit. Switch on that agent's radar and it also tells you when something new appears, without you going looking. Over a million tracks are released every week. Most artists never reach the person who would be most interested in them. Feeds, playlists and inbox submissions only show you what happens to arrive. An agent looks for what you actually asked for. How it works 1. Write a brief in plain language. No forms, no filter menus. 2. Your agent returns matches ranked by fit, with the signals you care about — streaming growth, TikTok and Instagram momentum, career stage, label affiliation, latest release. 3. Save, skip or dismiss. Every action teaches that agent what you mean. Two people starting from the same brief will see different results within weeks. 4. Turn on the radar for any agent and its matches come to you as they appear, rather than waiting for you to check. 5. Run several agents at once — one for each direction you are scouting. The watchlist: Everything worth coming back to lives here. Save an artist from a match, from a radar alert, or from a colleague, and AIDAR keeps watching them for you — streaming movement, new releases, changes in label status. When something meaningful shifts, you get an alert that tells you why it matters.
