Start from what you already have
Most people arrive holding one of four things. Find yours in the left column.
| What you have | Where to go | What that page adds |
|---|---|---|
| A person and an occasion — a birthday, a wedding, a leaving day | An occasion generator: birthday, wedding, Mother's Day | How to get a name sung right, what length suits the moment, and how to hand the song over |
| A sound in your head and no occasion | A genre generator: pop, country, jazz, rock | The words that separate that genre from its neighbours, and the tempos it lives at |
| Words you already wrote | AI text to song or any page in Custom mode | How the section tags work, and what happens to lines that are too short |
| Nothing but a mood | The main song generator | What a two-line brief produces, and which five words change the result most |
| A track you want to rap over | A beat maker | The four slots a beat brief needs, and the switch that keeps it wordless |
| An audio file of your own | Add vocals to your beat | What can be built on top of a recording you already have |
Fourteen of these pages are occasions, eleven are genres, eight make beats, and the rest do one specific job each. None of them is a different product.
The sentence that works on every one of them
Whatever page you land on, the brief is the instrument, and the same five things carry it: who or what the song is about, the sound, the voice, the pace, and one concrete detail nobody else would write. Everything else on any of these pages is elaboration on those five.
“A warm acoustic song for my sister's fortieth, female voice, unhurried, about the kitchen radio she never turns off” has all five in one line — and it would work identically typed into the birthday page, the pop page or the main generator.
So what is actually different between the pages?
Three things, none of them mechanical. The examples are drawn from that kind of request, so you can hear what other people's briefs produced. The vocabulary is specific — a country page talks about pedal steel and two-step tempos; a drill page talks about sliding 808s. And the questions answered are the ones that come up for that request, which is why the birthday page explains pasted lyrics and the R&B page explains song length.
If two pages fit, use either. A word or two in the brief moves the result further than choosing a different door.
