ChordCraft vs Chordify

ChordCraft is a free web-based chord progression generator for producers and musicians. Users choose a genre and mood, then generate progressions with humanized playback and real instruments. The generator lists 10 genres, including Pop, Lo-fi, Jazz, EDM, Rock, R&B, Ambient, Cinematic, Bossa Nova and Hip-Hop, plus eight moods from Happy and Sad to Epic and Mysterious. Voice leading is available, and chords can be edited or locked. Advanced controls cover key selection, chord length and voicing modes. Multiple sections can be combined into a full arrangement. Saved progressions can be exported or imported. Export formats are WAV, stems and MIDI. The Free plan costs nothing and includes those export formats, while listing free generations remaining today. ChordCraft also provides chord audio playback.

Chordify turns music from YouTube, SoundCloud, or a private collection into chords aligned with an interactive player. Its catalog search covers YouTube, SoundCloud, and 36 million songs already chordified. Chordify uses deep neural networks to recognize chords and track beats, letting players work with guitar, ukulele, piano, or mandolin; mandolin is available only on the website and Android app. Web and mobile versions share chordified or favorited songs. The Toolkit includes a chromatic tuner, metronome, chord practice, and live chord detection, with all Toolkit features unlocked in Premium Plus. Chords can be exported as PDF or MIDI, and songs can be embedded on websites or blogs, although edits are not supported in embeds. A free plan is available. Basic costs $24 a year, Premium costs $42 a year, and Premium Plus costs $54 a year, each billed yearly. Deezer songs are unavailable, and Deezer links work only on the website.
