Your Song Already Knows What Its Video Should Be
Upload your track and get what it is really about, the one world that fits it, and three scenes to film it — setup, turn, payoff. Then 15 shots get rendered into a storyboard so you see the idea instead of imagining it. Free, no card.
The short version
Your lyrics get read, not just transcribed. The result starts with one or two plain sentences on what the song is about — the crush, the escape, the thing you were actually writing about.
One world, not a mood board. A single place that fits the reading — a funfair at dusk, a rain-slicked road at night — and every scene has to stay inside it. That is what makes a video feel like one video.
Three scenes: setup, turn, payoff. The shape a 15-second clip needs. Where it starts, what changes, what it ends on — each written for your song, not copied from a template.
15 shots rendered, so you can see it. The scenes become real generated frames, cut to your beat into a storyboard reel. If the idea is wrong you find out in three minutes, not after a shoot.
This is a real upload, not a mockup. An unreleased pop song called “Sugar Rush”. The reading came back as “the rush of a new crush, as fleeting as a funfair on a summer evening”, the world as a funfair at dusk — and these are three of the 15 shots it rendered.
And this is where it shows up in your result — at the top of your Song DNA, before any number:

Why most music video ideas fall apart
Ask a prompt tool for “music video ideas” and you get a list: neon city, desert at golden hour, abandoned warehouse. None of it knows your song. A video built from a list looks fine muted and wrong with sound on — which is exactly how people watch, then scroll.
The order here is the other way round. First the song gets read: what the lyrics say, what the sound does, where the strongest moment sits. Only then is a world chosen — one that fits the reading — and the scenes are written to stay inside that world. The idea comes from the song, and the shots come from the idea.
What the reading is built from
| Signal | Measured from | What it decides |
|---|---|---|
| Lyrics + word timings | Transcription of your vocal | What the song is about, and which line the payoff lands on |
| Energy and sections | Second-by-second audio analysis | Where setup ends and the turn begins |
| Strongest moment | Energy, vocal presence, contrast | The seconds the storyboard is cut around |
| Mood and genre | Audio classification | Light, colour temperature and pace of the world |
| Your answer | The “what is it really about?” box | Re-films the storyboard around your meaning — first redo free |
How it works
MP3 or WAV, full track, 30 seconds minimum. Vocals or instrumental — both get a reading.
Lyrics transcribed and interpreted, audio analysed for energy, sections and the strongest moment. About a minute.
A world that fits the reading is chosen and setup, turn and payoff are written inside it. You see them at the top of your Song DNA.
The scenes are rendered as generated frames and cut to your beat into a vertical reel. If the reading is off, answer one question and it re-films — free once per song.
Common questions
Four things, in this order: one or two sentences on what your song is about, one sentence on why a certain world fits it, three scenes to film it (setup, turn, payoff), and a storyboard reel made of 15 generated shots cut to your beat. The reading appears at the top of your Song DNA; the storyboard lands in the free reel set.
No. Your vocal is transcribed with word timestamps, the lyrics are read for what they say, and the audio is analysed for energy, sections and the strongest moment. The reading is built from that, the world is chosen to match the reading, and every scene has to stay inside that one world. That is why the ideas are about your song and not about music videos in general.
Yes. Without lyrics the reading describes what the track feels like instead of what it says — a violin piece came back as a dormant instrument waking up in a cathedral, and the storyboard followed that. Vocals give a more specific reading, instrumentals a more atmospheric one.
Tell it. Under the reading there is a box — “What is your song really about?” — and your answer re-films the storyboard around your meaning. The first redo per song is free; the new take appears next to the original instead of replacing it.
No. The storyboard is faceless on purpose: a place and an object carry the story — a bench, a cone of cotton candy, a lit ferris wheel — so the video works for artists who never want to be on camera.
Yes — the analysis is free, no card. The reading is there when the analysis finishes, about a minute in; the storyboard needs another couple of minutes to generate and cut its 15 shots. The same upload also gives you the Virality Score, hook timestamps, BPM and key, and the rest of the free reel set.
