Journal

Every idea for the release.
One notebook. All connected.

The hooks in your voice notes, the lyrics in your notes app, the references on a moodboard, the plan in a doc you abandoned. Journal holds all of it, and it’s wired to the songs you’re actually making.

No credit card. No install. Free to start.

Inside Journal — live
Lyrics

A writing room with a rhyme finder built in

Lyrics in one app, a rhyme site in another tab, and last night’s better draft overwritten by this one.

Color-code your sections, checkpoint versions, and find the word without leaving the line. You get perfect, near and slant rhymes, plus multi-word chains that rhyme the whole phrase, not just the last word. Tap a rhyme and it swaps straight into the line. No more switching tabs mid-verse.

  • 01A rhyme finder right in the editor, with perfect, near and slant rhymes
  • 02Multi-word / compound rhyme chains, rare in consumer tools
  • 03Color-coded sections with manual + auto version checkpoints
Capture

Catch the hook before it’s gone

The best melody shows up at 2am and dies in a voice memo you never labelled and never find again.

Record the hook the second it lands. On your phone the words appear live as you sing, from the same mic that’s recording. One tap sends them into a lyric or a note. The idea moves forward instead of getting buried.

  • 01Voice memos with live transcription on mobile: one mic feeds the recording and the text at once
  • 02Edit the transcript; send a memo to a lyric or note in one tap
  • 03Quick Capture inside Studio: jot a line or a voice note without leaving the session
Think

An infinite canvas for the whole idea

References scattered across a pin board, your screenshots and a group chat, nowhere near the song they’re for.

One board you can pan and zoom, built for how ideas really sit before they’re decided. It holds text, lyric, note, image, audio, video, palette, shape, frame, concept and plan cards, with freehand ink and connections. Lyric and note cards stay live, so edits flow both ways, and colors pulled from a reference image carry over to Canvas.

  • 01Eleven card types incl. live lyric / note cards that edit both ways
  • 02Freehand ink, connections, frames and a snap grid, with your view saved per project
  • 03Palette extraction from image cards flows straight into Canvas
Shape

Turn a vibe into a brief you’ll actually use

The “vision” for the release lives in your head until it’s too late to brief anyone, including future you.

Concept mode starts from a seed and writes the brief with you: nine generators for the song, the project, the beat, the lyric, the video, the cover, the shoot, the rollout and the merch. Save concepts and reuse them across projects. One tap turns a concept into a release plan, or into a storyboard you can send to Motion.

  • 01Nine concept generators, written in an artist’s language, not a generic form
  • 02A saved-concepts library that moves between projects
  • 03Plan this release, or storyboard it and send it to Motion
Plan

A planner that’s already caught up

Every release tracker starts empty and ends abandoned, because you have to feed it everything you’ve already done.

Roster mode is wired to your live projects: their covers, palettes, pitches, previews and drop dates. It shows what to work on, plans the week and flags what’s about to slip, without you re-entering a thing. It keeps itself current and marks a project from hot to cold as it sits.

  • 01Hero project + roster grid with inferred vibe states (hot / flowing / fresh / cold / shipped)
  • 02Release plans with dates, timeline, to-dos and collaborators
  • 03AI: what to work on, plan the week, spot the risks
