Works in Chat, Cowork and Code
Trend research and genre analysis
Understand what is connecting with audiences right now. Track trending sounds, analyze genre evolution, and identify emerging production styles before they peak — so you can be ahead of the market rather than chasing it.
UK Drill: 140-145 BPM, sliding 808s, minor key piano samples, muted hi-hats. US Drill: 135-145 BPM, harder 808 hits, trap-influenced snare patterns, more melodic vocal layering. Current convergence trend: producers blending both sounds with UK lead tempo and US melodic elements.
Reference track generation
Generate placeholder instrumentals for demos, pitches, and session preparation. Create reference tracks that communicate your creative direction to artists, labels, and sync clients before the full production is built.
Reference track generated: 2:08 runtime, C minor key, 72 BPM. Piano intro at 0:00, intimate verses with light percussion, string swell hits at 0:58 and 1:40, breakdown at 1:20. Delivered as WAV for session reference.
Artist and collaboration research
Research artists you are considering working with. Understand their fan base, streaming performance, aesthetic preferences, and market positioning before approaching them with a production deal or collaboration pitch.
Artist profile: 312K Spotify monthly listeners, trending up 18% MoM. Instagram 78K, TikTok 234K with strong fan engagement (4.2%). YouTube channel 45K subscribers, 2M views on latest release. Fan base: predominantly 18-24F, US East Coast heavy. Production fit: your catalog matches 6 of their 10 recent tracks in BPM and register.
Label and publisher research
Research record labels, publishing companies, and music supervisors to identify who is actively seeking your sound. Build a targeted pitch list with verified contacts and current A&R activity.
Found 14 relevant contacts: 6 indie labels with bedroom pop signings in the last 12 months, 4 A&R executives at majors with recent indie acquisitions, and 4 indie music publishers with sync-forward catalogues. Included recent signings as conversation openers for each.
Sync licensing and placement research
Research music supervisors, ad agencies, and streaming editorial teams seeking original music for sync placements, TV, film, and brand campaigns. Identify who is actively licensing similar sounds to yours.
Compiled 18 music supervisor contacts: 8 at broadcast/streaming networks with recent electronic instrumental sync credits, 6 at advertising agencies with music-forward brand campaigns, and 4 at video game publishers. Included recent placement credits to reference in pitches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can AI-generated music be used in commercial releases?
Music Generator is best suited for reference tracks, demos, and creative briefs — not final commercial releases. AI-generated music currently has unresolved copyright status in many jurisdictions and would not meet the creative standards expected by labels. Use generated tracks to communicate your sonic vision to artists, labels, and sync clients.
How accurate is the trending audio data?
Trending Audio pulls live data from TikTok's public trending surfaces, giving you real-time song usage counts. This is a strong early signal for crossover potential, as TikTok virality consistently precedes mainstream streaming and radio performance. Data reflects current platform trends, not historical or predictive modeling.
Can these tools help me understand my royalty situation?
Deep Research can summarize publicly available information about mechanical royalty rates, performance royalties, and producer point standards. For your specific catalog and deal terms, work with a music attorney or entertainment accountant — royalty structures vary significantly by deal type, territory, and distributor.
How do I find the right A&R contact for my sound?
Lead Finder can identify A&R executives and music industry professionals with documented activity in your genre. Cross-reference with Deep Research to understand their recent signings, which gives you the most relevant conversation opener when reaching out. Direct outreach through industry connections or reputable managers typically yields better results than cold contact.
Can AI tools help me identify plagiarism risks before releasing music?
Deep Research can help you research whether specific chord progressions, melodic ideas, or production elements have been used in prior releases. For definitive copyright clearance, consult a music attorney or use dedicated music recognition and similarity search services before commercial release.
