The details, when you need them.

Public YouTube videos and Shorts, TikTok, X and Facebook links. Private, login-only, age-restricted or region-blocked media may not be accessible from the server.

Quick finds the main song. Timestamp checks one known moment. Full scan searches across a video and builds a timestamped tracklist. Use Deep analysis with Quick or Timestamp when speech covers quiet background music.

Separating audio across an entire long video would use disproportionate processing time. Deep analysis therefore stays focused on short Quick and Timestamp windows.

The recording may be too quiet, heavily edited, sped up, unreleased or absent from recognition catalogues. Try a clearer moment, enter its timestamp, or enable Deep analysis when music sits behind speech.

Public videos that have already been analyzed can reuse a cached result. That avoids downloading and recognizing the same audio again.

No. Quick, Timestamp and Full scans work without an account. An account adds private history, Separation access and plan features.

Upload an MP3, WAV or M4A file. Choose vocals plus instrumental, or four stems: vocals, drums, bass and other. Files can be up to ten minutes long.

Usage follows the length of the uploaded audio, regardless of whether you choose two or four stems. A 3:20 file therefore uses 3 minutes and 20 seconds from the internal balance; the interface rounds the remaining total down to full minutes.

Plan minutes that expire sooner are used first, then purchased minutes, then promotional or beta minutes. This protects the balances that stay available longer.

Pro starts each billing cycle with 180 included minutes, replacing any unused monthly allowance. Purchased packs remain separate through monthly resets and stay available for up to two years.

Uploads and generated stems are private to your account and deleted automatically after 24 hours. Download anything you want to keep before then.

AI estimates layers from a finished mix; it cannot recover the original studio recordings. Reverb and overlapping instruments can leave audible traces, especially in dense or heavily compressed music.

Many rhythms support both interpretations—for example, 70 and 140 BPM describe the same pulse at different subdivisions. Song pages show half-time and double-time alternatives for that reason.

tunescout first measures the rhythm and then identifies the song independently. A public page is created only when the track identity is reliable enough, which keeps unrelated videos out of the catalogue.

Choose a moment with a steady, clearly audible beat. Intros, breakdowns, speech and free-time passages give the analyzer less rhythmic evidence.

Yes. The core Quick and Timestamp experience remains free under fair-use limits. Pro is for higher scan allowances, monthly Separation time, exports, priority processing and an ad-free workspace.

Pro remains active until the end of the paid billing period. Purchased Separation minutes stay in the account independently of the subscription.

Yes. A one-time pack adds 120 purchased minutes. It does not start a subscription.

Recognition results can link to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music and SoundCloud searches. CSV and TXT tracklist exports are part of Pro. Automatic playlist sync depends on each provider granting production access and may remain limited during beta.
