Soundtrap and Soundtrap AB were founded April 1, 2012 in Stockholm, Sweden by Björn Melinder, Fredrik Posse, Gabriel Sjöberg, and Per Emanuelsson who believed that it was too "complex to make music" and who wanted to create a studio with collaboration and “a full production environment where you can do professional-sounding podcasts, collaboratively done on the web.”
Soundtrap Studio was launched in beta in 2013.
The next year, it was featured at Google I/O. In 2016, Soundtrap scored $6 million for their Series A round.

In November 2017, Spotify acquired Soundtrap, with Soundtrap stating that the move was a "culturally, creatively and strategically" great fit.
The company had revenues of 900,000 kronor, making it one of Spotify's most expensive acquisitions.

In 2018, Sountrap won the EdTech Awards for the Arts, Music, Creative Solutions Category.
The next year, it offered unlimited projects for the free tier without having to upgrade to a better plan.
