Midwich Ignite today announces its investment into Forte AI, an AI-powered automation platform designed for professional audio production environments.
Founded in 2024, Forte AI helps audio engineers, producers and studios dramatically reduce the time spent on repetitive tasks within mixing and audio production. With native support for Pro Tools and Logic Pro, Forte AI sits at the core of the professional production market.
The investment reflects Midwich Ignite’s continued commitment to identifying technologies that solve real-world workflow challenges for customers across the professional media and entertainment sectors.
Forte AI’s platform uses AI-powered automation to streamline labour-intensive studio work across music and audio post production: session organisation, stem exporting and batch processing in music, and the import and preparation of AAF and PTX sessions for film, television and commercial post studios. It turns hours of manual session setup into minutes, freeing audio professionals to focus on creativity rather than repetitive administration.
Alex Kemanes, Managing Director at Midwich Ignite, said:
“Forte AI is addressing a major productivity challenge within professional audio production. Engineers and studios are under constant pressure to deliver faster turnaround times while maintaining exceptional quality. Forte’s intelligent automation technology has the potential to significantly improve efficiency without disrupting the workflows that professionals already rely on.”
Designed specifically for professional users, the Forte platform integrates seamlessly into existing studio templates and production environments, enabling faster mix preparation, simplified export processes and greater consistency across sessions without requiring customers to change established ways of working. Forte AI runs on a proprietary on-device AI engine that analyses audio locally, so sensitive and unreleased sessions never leave the machine.
As content production demands continue to grow across music, broadcast, post-production and live entertainment sectors, workflow automation is becoming increasingly important for studios and production teams looking to improve operational efficiency while maximising creative output.
Loris Comba, CEO & Co-founder at Forte AI, added:
“Our mission is to remove the repetitive technical work that slows down audio professionals and allow them to focus on creativity. Partnering with Midwich Ignite gives us access to deep industry expertise and a strong network within the professional audio market as we continue to expand the Forte platform.”
The investment will support Forte AI’s product development and its expansion from music production into audio post production, as it grows the platform across the global professional audio market.
