Five ways in
However the audio reaches you, we can probably work with it.
The gap this closes
You’ve heard this song eleven times this month. You still don’t know its name.
That’s the whole reason this exists — not to reinvent how you listen to music, just to close that one small, persistent gap between hearing something and being able to say what it was.
Most days that’s fine — you half-hum it, half-forget it, and move on. This is for the days it isn’t fine, when you want the name now, not eventually.
Built for how you actually use it
Works with what you already have
Any audio or video file. No special format needed.
Straight to the source
A match links out to Spotify and Apple Music.
Nothing to install
Runs in the browser, on your phone or your desktop.
Now in your language
English, Hindi, and Spanish, with more on the way.
No account. No app. No catch.
You won’t sign up. You won’t download anything. You’ll get an answer, and then we’ll forget you were ever here — your file is checked once and discarded, not kept.
Wherever it happens to be playing
Different situations. Same three seconds of not knowing.
What actually affects accuracy
Three things make the biggest difference:
Clip length
Ten to fifteen seconds is usually enough — you don’t need the whole song.
Background noise
The quieter the room, the cleaner the fingerprint.
Which part you capture
The chorus is usually more distinctive than the intro.
Sometimes the answer isn’t “no.” It’s “not yet.”
Usually it’s one of a few things:
Too much noise around it
A crowded room competes with the melody.
Too short a clip
A couple of seconds rarely gives us enough to work with.
A cover, or unreleased
We match against released recordings.
It’s brand new
Very recent releases can take a little while to enter the catalog. If it just came out, give it a day or two and try again.
Try a longer clip, cut the background noise where you can, and capture the chorus instead of the intro — it’s usually more distinctive. The cleaner the recording, the better the fingerprint.
What we do with what you give us
Nothing, once we’re done. Your file or recording exists for exactly as long as it takes to find an answer. Then it’s gone.
- No account required
- Nothing stored after processing
- No listening history, anywhere
