Writer's Room

As a songwriter, I often find myself losing time and momentum while jumping between platforms to gather information about reference tracks—keys, tempos, genres, instrumentation, and more. This friction in the early ideation phase led me to conceive Writer’s Room, a web-based tool designed to streamline the songwriting process by centralizing all relevant data from a curated playlist.

Writer’s Room would allow users to import a playlist like a “Songwriting Inspiration” list for a specific project and automatically extract key metadata for each track. By integrating with public music data sources and analyzing patterns across the playlist, the tool would generate a summary view highlighting common elements such as frequently used keys, average BPM ranges, shared genre tags, and recurring instrumentation. This bird’s-eye view could help creators spot creative throughlines and spark new ideas with less guesswork.

Though still in the concept phase, Writer’s Room is designed to be a focused, practical solution for creative professionals looking to optimize their workflow. By eliminating the need to jump between streaming apps, metadata tools, and spreadsheets, it aims to become a single source of truth for reference track analysis, making inspiration easier to capture and act on.
