Instro is a place to listen to instrumental music without having to think about playlists, artists, or what comes next. It's designed for coding, reading, and focused work, when music should support your attention instead of competing for it. Instro avoids complexity on purpose. There are no playlists to manage, no algorithms pushing novelty, and no pressure to interact. You start listening, and the music stays out of the way.
@carlos_silva5 congrats for launch... looks interesting i'll check today , is there any free trail ?
Hello@priya_kushwaha1 ,
You have a 14 day trial.
And also you get 50% off for a whole year with the code 'LAUNCH50'.
Hope you enjoy it.
Would love to get some feedback on it.
the no-lyrics no-shuffle premise fills a real gap, Spotify's algorithm always wants to sneak in something with words eventually. curious about the music itself though - is it licensed tracks from real composers, royalty-free stock, or AI-generated? that changes both the legal footing long term and whether it still feels good six months in once you've heard the same rotation on loop
@galdayan hello Gal,
Thanks for your comment. These songs are all AI-generated. I've been listening to this for a very long time, and I haven't been annoyed by it yet. There are quite a few songs, and they have good quality. At the same time, they are not spectacular enough to take your attention away from what you're doing. That's the whole point. I think the AI-generated music is really a good thing here. I'm not trying to grab people's attention. The songs are meant to stay in the background, so much so that you shouldn't be able to understand that they're repeating too much.
There are quite a few songs, and the whole point of this is that as I get users and revenue from this, I will be adding songs all the time. I think at the moment I have thousands of music songs already, and it's growing. We'd love to have you try it out and let me know how it goes.
@carlos_silva5 fair enough on the "shouldn't notice it's AI" goal - that's actually a reasonable bar for background music, different from trying to pass it off as something more. the thing I'd watch for as the catalog grows is subtle sameness - a lot of generative music tools converge on similar chord progressions and textures even across "thousands" of tracks. has anyone flagged that, or does the variety hold up in practice?
Love the simplicity here, this is exactly the kind of background music experience I want when I'm heads down writing code. One thing that would make it even better for me is a small visual indicator showing the current track and artist somewhere subtle, since I sometimes want to look up a piece after hearing it but have no way to remember what it was.
@mihriban1537007 Thank you! You can see the track name but deliberately didn't want to add complexity. But welcome to feedback. Perhaps adding a like button so that it repeats the tracks you love the most?
Finally something that doesn't try to shuffle in a random pop song every fifteen minutes. Just hit play and the background piano actually stays in the background.
@bulemqtmo
Definitely no pop songs. :)
Thank you for your support.
Love the focus on staying out of the way. One thing that would make it perfect for me is a sleep timer, since I often play it while falling asleep with headphones on and would love it to fade out and stop on its own after a set time.
the no-algorithm approach is refreshing, it actually feels designed for the people using it rather than for engagement metrics.
