How it decides

The chords tell you the key.

The tool weighs the chords, how long they last and where the song settles. The key is an estimate: borrowed chords and changes of key can make it uncertain.

Major or minor

The same chords, two homes.

G major and E minor share the same notes. What changes is where the song feels at home. When the recording points both ways, the tool shows both keys. Listen back and choose the one that fits.

What to do with it

Now you know where the other chords are.

Use the key to explore chords you haven’t tried, or find a capo position for your voice. In the app, the results stay with your song.
