Charlie Puth joins Moises as chief music officer

In the newly created role, Puth will contribute to the company’s creative and product direction, providing input on tools designed for everyday use by musicians. The platform focuses on AI-powered features that allow users to isolate vocals and instruments, detect chords and song structures, and experiment with arrangements during music production and practice.

Puth said he had used the platform during his own creative process prior to joining the company.

“I’ve been using Moises in my own creative process for years, as have many of my friends,” he said. “It opens up possibilities that used to take hours or expensive studio setups, whether that’s isolating vocals to study technique or experimenting with arrangements in real time. AI, when done right, isn’t here to replace musicians. It’s here to help artists learn, explore, and bring their ideas to life.”

According to the company, Puth will collaborate on the development of artist-focused features and help ensure that the platform reflects the workflows used by musicians in practice and production.

Geraldo Ramos, chief executive officer of Moises, said the company views artificial intelligence as a tool intended to support creative work rather than replace it.

“Musicianship has always evolved alongside technology, and AI represents the next chapter in that story,” Ramos said. “But we believe the future of music creation isn’t about AI generating songs for you. It’s about AI amplifying what makes human creativity irreplaceable: intuition, emotion, and artistic vision. AI should be a brush in the artist’s hand, not a paint-by-numbers kit.”

To mark the partnership, Puth and Moises have launched a global remix competition linked to the Super Bowl, where the artist performed the national anthem earlier this year. The initiative, called the Moises Jam Session, invites musicians to remix or cover Puth’s single “Best Yourself Up,” from his forthcoming album Whatever’s Clever! scheduled for release on 27 March.

Participants can access the track’s individual stems through the Moises application, including isolated vocals and instrumentals. Puth will select the winning remix and cover versions. Winners and finalists will share $100 000 in cash and prizes, signed merchandise, and a backstage meet-and-greet at Puth’s performance at Madison Square Garden on 29 May.

Moises, which uses AI-powered tools to support music learning, rehearsal and production, has gained international recognition. The application was named Apple iPad App of the Year 2024 and was shortlisted as a finalist for the Apple Design Awards 2025.

The platform reports more than 70 million users worldwide and is available in 33 languages. Its development team includes engineers and scientists with experience at companies such as Spotify, Pandora and TikTok.
