JC Investment Group LLC · Holding company

JC Investment Group LLC builds the ownership layer for creator rights.

Jason Colapietro builds and holds companies that turn music IP, authorship, provenance, licensing, AI, and royalty rails into working infrastructure.

Suede Labs AI is the flagship. Around it sits a real portfolio: on-chain rights contracts, music distribution, agent-callable payment rails, music tools, and developer infrastructure. Most of it is already shipped, built so creators and rights holders keep control.

  3. 03 Enable efficient licensing and distribution
  4. 04 Create transparent, programmable royalty rails
