Chorus

Chorus is a web-based songwriting app that works in any web browser on phone, tablet, or laptop. It provides a rhyming tool that ranks singable rhymes for a song's genre, a Triggers feature that suggests words to start lines or verses, and Genius, which suggests phrases and possible next lines while the user chooses what to keep. It also offers a chords tool for exploring single chords and progressions, short daily practice exercises covering hooks, rhymes, melody, structure, and editing, and a songbook that keeps lyrics, chords, recordings, and ideas together. Additional features include co-writing on the same lyric or sharing a link, recordings, MIDI keyboard input, studio instruments, and in-app songwriting guides. The website states that users own what they write and that Chorus does not train on users' lyrics. It offers a 10-day free trial of Chorus Studio, followed by a subscription whose price is shown on a separate pricing page.
