A songwriting & studio workspace · arriving 2026

Write the song.
Finish the record.

song.tools is one workspace for the whole life of a song — a Library where it’s written, charted, and shared with co‑writers, and Sessions where studios carry it through mixes, masters, and delivery day. One song, start to finish. And it’s always yours.

The song.tools editor in Lines view: the song “My Love Sleeps on the Roof” in the key of F, charted in Intro, Verse, and Pre-Chorus sections with chord chips like Dm, Bb, C, and F placed above each lyric line.
The Library’s Lines view — sections in order, chords set above the words they belong to.
Part one · The shape of it

One product, two spaces. One song between them.

Most songs live in six places: a notes app, a voice memo, three texts, and a mix folder called FINAL_final. song.tools gives the song one home — with a space for the writing and a space for the record.

For the writing

Library

The desk. Drafts, charts, fragments, collections, co‑writers — the song as words and chords, still warm.

  • Charts in Lines, drafts in Text
  • Fragments & the Writer’s Desk
  • Collections for EPs and set lists
  • Co-writing with real roles
For the record

Sessions

The room. Mixes and masters, versioned with waveforms. Notes pinned to the second they’re about. Delivery that feels like a release.

  • Session members, granular roles
  • Time-coded comments
  • Album-style delivery pages
  • Guest links, cloud copy
Part two · The tools

Built the way songs actually happen.

Most tools make you choose: a lyric app that has never heard your mixes, or a file locker that has never read your words. song.tools refuses the choice — every tool here does one honest job, holding the song steady while you and the people around it do the work.

At the desk

The Library
The editor

One song, two views.

Lines is the structured chart — Verse, Chorus, Bridge, with chords set above the words they belong to. Text is a plain page for when you just need to write — the chords ride along inline, in brackets, right where you left them. Same song underneath: toggle freely, lose nothing.

And when it’s time for the room, print a chord-and-lyric chart that comes off the printer looking like you care.

The Writer’s Desk

A side panel that behaves like a good co‑writer.

Rhymes when you’re stuck. A thesaurus when a word is only almost right. A live syllable count for the line you’re on. And Fragments — lines from your own notebook, surfaced when they fit what you’re writing.

It never marks up your lyric. It offers; you pull in.

The Writer’s Desk beside the chorus of “My Love Sleeps on the Roof”: an 11-syllable count, perfect and near rhymes for “why,” thesaurus entries, and three Fragments from the writer’s own notebook offering themselves — each tagged with the rhyme that made it fit.
The Writer’s Desk on a real line — rhymes, thesaurus, syllables, and your own fragments, one panel away.
№ 01

Paste-to-import

Paste a whole song from any doc. It works out sections, chord lines, and structure on its own — and shows you a preview to approve before anything is saved.

№ 02

Fragments

A scratchpad for loose hooks and orphan lines. The Desk keeps them within reach, and the good ones find their song eventually.

№ 03

Collections

Group songs into an EP, a set list, a co-writing folder. Share the collection, and you’ve shared everything in it.

№ 04

Co-writing roles

Owner, editor, viewer — per song or per collection. You always keep ownership of your songs.

In the room

Sessions
Time-coded review

Feedback with a timestamp.

Comments pin to the exact moment in the track. “Somewhere in the second chorus” becomes 1:18, and nobody scrubs around guessing. Every mix and master is versioned with its own waveform, so v3 never overwrites v2 — and any note that’s actually work promotes to a tracked to‑do with one tap.

A session in song.tools reviewing “Mile Marker 9” mix v3: version chips for v1 rough, v2 mix, and v3 mix marked final, a waveform with comment pins, and a discussion where artist and engineer comments carry timestamps like 0:12 and 1:18.
A real session — v3 marked final, comments pinned to the moment they’re about.
Delivery

Delivery day, done right.

When the studio delivers, the artist lands on one album-style page: the cover as a jacket, the delivery note as liner notes, and a tracklist that plays top to bottom — and downloads at original quality. Press play, and the record slides out of its sleeve.

One more tap sends the whole delivery into the artist’s own Dropbox or Google Drive.

A song.tools delivery page: an album jacket for “Night Weather — rough mixes” beside the player, above a three-track list with durations and per-track download buttons.
A real delivery — plays like an album, downloads at original quality.
№ 05

Mixes & masters, versioned

Every bounce in its place, with a waveform to prove it. The history of the record, kept honestly.

№ 06

Guest links & claiming

Artists without accounts get a link that just works — and a song the studio started for them is theirs the moment they claim it. It was always headed to their Library.

№ 07

Copy to cloud

Send a finished delivery straight into the artist’s own Dropbox, Google Drive, or SoundCloud — private uploads, published when they’re ready. No zip files over text message.

Part three · Who it’s for

Written at the desk. Trusted in the control room.

For songwriters

Every draft, chart, and half-finished bridge — one home.

There’s a version of your song in your notes app, another in a voice memo, and the good bridge is in a text to your co-writer. The Library gives all of it one home: charts that read the way you’d write them by hand, a desk that knows your own fragments, and co-writing that doesn’t turn into version roulette.

And the paperwork of trust is built in — every share has a role, and every song has an owner: you.

  • Charts in Lines, drafts in Text
  • Your fragments feed the Writer’s Desk
  • One search across songs, lines & notes (⌘/)
  • Ownership never moves without you
For studios & producers

Every project in its own room. Every client in their own world.

Run the EP, the single, and the mix revision each as a Session, with real roles for engineers, producers, and artists. Your clients never see each other — or each other’s rough mixes.

And the front office comes with the room: a public booking page at your own address that holds requested time on your Google Calendar, a tracked-time ledger per client, and numbered invoices built from your services and hours. See the studio tools →

  • Granular session roles & standing staff access
  • Bookings, tracked time & invoices built in
  • The artist always owns the songs
Coda · Coming soon

The desk is set. The room is warming up.

song.tools launches in 2026. We’re finishing it the way we’d finish a record — properly, and without rushing the mix. There’s no waitlist, but you can raise your hand — first doors open to working songwriters and the studios that record them.

No spam. No countdown. Just songs, soon.
