Start Your Success StoryProject Overview
Tunescribers’ platform equips 90,000+ musicians with powerful, seamless transcription tools to fuel creativity, mastery, and musical innovation.
Tunescribers provides musicians with custom sheet music and backing tracks, but their outdated platform struggled with severe performance issues, security vulnerabilities, and poor user experience. After working with two previous development teams, their codebase was inefficient, limiting their ability to introduce new features or scale their services. The system required extensive modernization, improved e-commerce functionality, and a more intuitive user interface. Rubico redeveloped the entire Tunescribers application from the ground up, implementing a scalable architecture, secure data migration, and a seamless e-commerce experience. The new platform now serves 90,000+ musicians, improves site speed, and enables easy upsells. With a modern, user-friendly design, Tunescribers is positioned for long-term growth and innovation.

Tunescriber’s Challenge
Tunescribers’ platform was inefficient and outdated, having been developed by two previous teams with a fragile codebase. Performance issues slowed operations, preventing complex features from functioning properly and frustrating users. Security vulnerabilities left sensitive data at risk, requiring urgent remediation. The user experience was cumbersome, forcing customers to complete long forms without real-time feedback, reducing engagement and conversions. Limited scalability restricted the company’s ability to grow, integrate new features, or optimize e-commerce. Additionally, their payment system lacked modern capabilities for seamless upsells. To move forward, Tunescribers needed a development partner who could either fix or rebuild their system while preserving customer data and ensuring long-term success.

- Faster performance and improved security with a fully rebuilt Next.js framework.
- Enhanced e-commerce allows customers to build custom products or purchase existing music.
