Overview
Syncsing is a French software company based in Paris and the developer of Newzik, a digital sheet music application for musicians, ensembles and music schools. The company describes itself as a team of developers and entrepreneurs passionate about music, with a mission to build the best sheet music reader to make the work of musicians, orchestras and teachers easier through technology. Its flagship product, Newzik, is available as a mobile app and a web app, and is positioned as a complete ecosystem for managing, reading, annotating and collaborating on digital scores. Newzik lets users centralize digital sheet music in PDF, scanned or set form, organize it with folders, setlists and versions, and access it from anywhere via cloud synchronization. The platform includes an AI-powered music engine that can play scores back for users, helping them learn pieces faster and providing instant accompaniments. Musicians can annotate scores with highlights, fingerings and marks, and turn pages hands-free using facial movements or a Bluetooth pedal. Real-time collaboration allows setlists and annotations to be shared and synchronized across an ensemble or a class, and instant transposition rewrites a score into a desired key with one click. A key differentiator is Newzik's LiveScore technology, which converts ordinary PDFs into interactive, "living" scores with guided playback, sections, and export to MusicXML or MIDI, as well as transposition after conversion. The company also offers practice and stage tools such as pens, highlighters and stamps, the ability to attach audio, MIDI or video, and automatic page turning. Newzik is used by individual musicians, chamber groups, orchestras, opera houses and schools. According to the company's own figures, the platform has around 450,000 to 500,000 active users, a 4.7 rating on the Apple Store, 14 million scores managed, and more than 150 institutional customers including opera companies, ensembles and schools. The company markets Newzik as a way to reduce paper, save time and collaborate better, describing it as something like "the Google Drive of sheet music." Its target segments include students and teachers, chamber musicians and orchestras. Syncsing operates primarily from Paris and serves an international user base through its iOS and web applications.
History
Syncsing is a French software company based in Paris and the developer of Newzik, a digital sheet music application. The company describes itself as a team of developers and entrepreneurs passionate about music, with a mission to create the best sheet music reader to facilitate the work of musicians, orchestras and teachers through technology. Its product, Newzik, is available as an app and a web platform and is used by individual musicians, ensembles, opera houses and schools. Newzik was built around the idea that music benefits from going digital. The company argues that switching to digital scores saves time, reduces paper use and improves collaboration, allowing ensembles and schools to prepare more smoothly, receive instant updates, and maintain versions adapted to each desk or voice range. The platform centralizes digital scores, setlists and projects in the cloud, accessible at any time on iOS and the web. Over time, Newzik has added real-time collaboration features that let users share project folders, distribute scores and synchronize annotations across an ensemble or a class. It introduced LiveScores, which convert PDFs into interactive scores with guided playback, sections, and export to MusicXML or MIDI, as well as transposition after conversion. Practice and stage tools include pens, highlighters and stamps, the ability to add audio, MIDI or video, and automatic page turning via facial movement or a Bluetooth pedal. The company has also integrated AI into its platform. Newzik's musical AI can play scores back for users, helping them learn pieces faster and providing instant accompaniments. According to the company's own figures, the platform has grown to around 450,000 to 500,000 active users, a 4.7 rating on the Apple Store, 14 million scores managed, and more than 150 institutional customers including opera companies, ensembles and schools. The company markets Newzik as something like "the Google Drive of sheet music," an ecosystem that lets musicians organize their entire library and share it collaboratively.
