The maker says piano mode supports polyphony, velocity and hand separation, with accuracy up to 86%; smart editing can help transpose scores and label chords.

Monthly access is $9.99 a month; the yearly subscription is $49.99 a year, billed annually. Paid plans list recording up to five minutes, full sheets and MIDI/MusicXML export.
