Collaborate

Get the co-write moving.

An always-ready co-writer for the whole room: choose an outcome, start a short guided exercise, issue a Writer Challenge, compare the strongest options together, and keep the material that earns its place.

Write better songs together

  • Get rolling fast Agree on what the song needs and move into a focused prompt, timer, or musical path in minutes.
  • Make choices together Generate alternatives, hear different directions, and turn everyone’s input into a stronger line, section, or arrangement.
  • Challenge each other Send a Daily Challenge or a shared Writer Challenge code so another writer opens the same starting prompt and compares notes.
  • Leave with the work Save the strongest ideas, organize the song, and share text, audio, MIDI, or PDFs for the next session.

Keep the work

The session ends. The song stays in motion.

Solo or in a co-write, save titles, captured lines, drafts, recaps, chord maps, and melody sketches in dedicated libraries. Bring the strongest pieces together in Songbook, reopen them later, and keep developing the song.

Save & organize

Give every useful idea a place

Keep titles, lines, editable song sections, alternate versions, notes, maps, and toplines findable after the writing session ends.

Continue

Move material back into the work

Bring recaps, captured lines, Treasure Maps, and Topline Sketches into an editable Songbook song, then send sections into the next useful adventure.

Export & share

Take practical files into the next room

Copy formatted text, bounce harmony as WAV or AAC audio, export MIDI for a DAW, and create PDFs and chord-and-lyric charts for co-writes, production, or reference.

Full Version adds optional iCloud sync for writing stats, Title Bank lines, Treasure Maps, Topline Sketches and Writing Plans. Songbook and Idea Pad stay on this device; active sessions resume here.

Designed around the songwriter

Guidance that builds your craft.

The app supplies structure, prompts, timers, diagnosis, theory support, and playable context. You make the creative decisions and do the writing.

You do the writing

No AI-generated lyrics. Each adventure helps you find, test, and strengthen your own material instead of producing a song for you.

Built for real writing sessions

Focused routes turn a vague goal into a specific task, a useful result, and a clear next move.

Useful without a signal

Core writing, planning, harmony, melody, and playback tools work offline. Purchases, iCloud sync, shared challenges, and support links need connectivity.

Free to start

Bring the next song forward.
