What can I type into Chord Draft?

Type any lyric, hook, mood, story, or feeling. Chord Draft handles short prompts ('rainy night driving home') and longer lyric fragments equally — the more emotionally specific the input, the more directional the chord output.

How long does generation take?

Generation time varies by model, network conditions, and server load. Balanced is usually faster; experimental can take longer because it allows more harmonic risk.

How many chords does Chord Draft return?

Each direction is a playable 4-chord loop for the section you choose. Pick one, then use Studio to extend, re-voice, or replace any chord.

Are there usage limits?

Yes. Free AI generation has a daily allowance shared by people on the same internet connection. It resets at midnight UTC. There is no paid plan currently.

What happens after I get my chords?

You move into Studio — a live in-browser piano workspace where you can play, transpose, change voicings, and edit the progression. Nothing gets saved server-side; your jam stays in your browser.
