Get started

Your first project, end to end

Drop a song, paste lyrics, drag to perfect, export. Done in 5 minutes.

1. Drop a song

WAV, MP3, M4A, or FLAC, up to your plan's per-song cap. The file uploads to a private bucket scoped to your account - we hold it just long enough to isolate the vocals.

2. Paste lyrics

One line per line of the song. Blank lines become breaks. Bracketed labels like [Chorus] are ignored.

3. Wait for alignment

Pinline times your lyric lines against the uploaded audio in the background, then opens the editor when the timing pass is ready. Older beta projects may be labeled beta timing; drag-to-fix still works on those rows.

4. Drag to perfect

Open the editor. Each lyric line is a pin on the waveform. Drag any pin to nudge timing. Hold ⇧ for 0.1s snap. Lock lines you nailed with K.

5. Export

TTML for Apple Music, LRC for Musixmatch and other services, JSON for your own site. ⌘E opens the export dialog.
