So I've been taking advantage of AI resources programmatically – building agents, using n8n – and I decided to make an AI chatbot to discover and listen to music. Since I'm also a musician, I'm pretty tired of the big streaming platforms, so honestly I built it for myself. Then I saw my friends using it, so we launched it and now we're in beta. The idea, besides being a chatbot for listeners, is to also let independent artists sign up and add a small grain of sand to the music streaming ecosystem – to promote better music and better support for musicians. I also added some filters that block AI-generated music from being listed on the platform. Also is free, non profit and no register required (anonymous) Let me know what you think – does this make sense from a user perspective? So, i use AI to filter AI music. Sonora.Chat was born from a simple frustration: as independent musicians, we watched streaming turn into a pay-to-play machine where viral hits, fake streams, and major labels drown out real creativity. Artists pay to upload, pay to promote, and still barely get heard. We wanted to add a small grain of sand to change that balance. For listeners: 🎵 AI Chatbot – Discover music by chatting. Free, anonymous, no registration. 🎵 No listening limits. Just music. 🎵 AI Music Filter – We block AI-generated tracks from being listed. Human music only. 🎵 Mood & Genre Mixes – Powered by YouTube API. 🎵 PWA App – Install on your phone or desktop. Works offline. For independent artists: 🎸 Free Artist Profile – Public page + shortlink to share. 🎸 Your Own Mobile App – Free, no coding required. Fans install it on their home screen. 🎸 Personal AI Agent – Get promotion strategies, track performance, engage with fans. 🎸 Direct Donations – Ko-fi, Buy Me a Coffee. 0% commission. 🎸 Creative Commons Licensing – Optional. You choose how your music is shared. 🎸 Free AI Mastering – Unlimited. Studio quality. Open source. Our mantras: 01 Activity over popularity – No follower or like counts. Everyone starts equal. 02 Human music only – We filter out AI-generated content. 03 Free. Always. – No paywalls. No hidden fees. We're not here to replace the big platforms. We're here to offer an alternative corner for those who believe music comes from human expression – not machine prompts – and that one dedicated fan is worth more than a million bot streams.

I'm a musician and Dev and I built a free music chatbot. Like a ChatGPT for music. Ask me anything.

Hey Product Hunt

I'm Otto. I'm a musician guitar, electronics, improvisation. And I'm also the person behind Sonora.Chat.

I got tired of the streaming machine. Bots, pay-to-play, AI-generated music flooding everything, and algorithms controlled by major labels.
