About songdrafts
A board for your voice memos.
songdrafts is a songwriting app for musicians with hundreds of voice memos called "New Recording" and a lot of unfinished songs. It turns that pile into songs you can actually find, finish and share.
You keep recording in Voice Memos or any recorder. songdrafts is what happens next: bring the recordings in, and every idea becomes a song card on a board.
See the founding priceWhat it does
- Every take on one card. A second voice note for the same idea, a new riff, the bridge you sang in the shower: they stack on the same song, in order.
- A board your songs move across. Inbox, Ideas, Half written, Finished demos, Released, or whatever you call them. Drag a song right when it gets better.
- Merge two half songs. The chorus from March and the verse from June become one song, keeping every take, tag and comment.
- Key, tempo and tags. Filter the board by key or BPM, or by riff, chorus and lyrics.
- Lyrics with the recording. The words and the audio live on the same song.
- One link to share a demo. Producers, bandmates and labels press play in the browser with no account, and leave comments pinned to the second. Links can expire or have a password.
- Lossless. The file you import is the file stored and played back.
- Works offline. Installed on your phone or computer, the board opens with no internet and syncs later.
- Your music is yours. Export everything as one zip at any time. Nothing you upload trains an AI.
Who it is for
Songwriters, singer-songwriters, bands and producers. Especially anyone whose best ideas are lost somewhere in their phone's voice memos.

Questions
- Does songdrafts record audio?
- No. Keep recording in Voice Memos or any recorder; songdrafts is where you sort, stack and finish the recordings.
- How do I get my iPhone voice memos in?
- In Voice Memos, select the recordings, tap Share, then Save to Files. Then open songdrafts and import them. On a Mac, drag a folder of them onto the board.
- Can people listen without an account?
- Yes. Share links open in the browser, and listeners can comment at a timestamp without signing up.
- Is my music private?
- Your library is on your device by default, share links can be revoked, and nothing you upload is used to train AI.
- How is it different from Trello, Notion or Samply?
- Trello and Notion cannot play or stack takes. Samply is built for sending finished mixes. songdrafts covers the messy stretch from voice note to finished demo, and sharing too.
