About Songscription

We're a music learning AI lab on a mission to enable anyone to play any song they can imagine. Our first product, Songscription, is the AI-powered "Shazam for sheet music" which allows people to upload any audio and get back sheet music, MIDI, tabs, or piano roll back in minutes. Hundreds of thousands of musicians have used it to transcribe songs that have never been written down before. Our second product (beta recently released) is a learning app that lets users upload any song and learn it through an interactive piano roll with real-time feedback.

We've raised a $5M seed led by Reach Capital and been covered in TechCrunch, Billboard, and MusicRadar. The team is small, the pace is fast, and we're just getting started.
