Capture the night.
Relive it forever.
Film the moment and Chord catches the song — then your crew’s whole night comes back, the morning after and for years.
No typing in the crowd. The set, the song, the people — kept.

A song comes on and you're back in the crowd —
the bass in your chest, the drop landing, the people around you.
Most of us kept the clip. Almost nobody kept the song with it.
The best nights of your life
are disappearing into your camera roll.
You film the show. By Monday it's buried — and the song that made the moment is gone. The night was everything. The footage is a folder of dark videos with no song, no setlist, no order.
Has the clip. Not the song.
Sixty clips from one festival, filed next to screenshots and food photos. No song, no set, no order. By Tuesday you've stopped looking.
Has the song. Not the moment.
By the time it's open, the drop's gone. And even when it catches the track, it's a list of titles — not the crowd, the lights or who you were with.
Has the story. For 24 hours.
Your night becomes content for other people's feeds, then disappears. The best bits were never meant for everyone anyway.
Chord keeps all three together: film the moment, it catches the song, and your crew’s clips land in the same Night — kept for you, not posted for them.
One night. Four acts.
Before the show, in the crowd, the morning after — and years later, when the song comes on.
Make the Night.
Going to a show? Start a Night for it — the festival, the club night, the gig, the road trip. Send the Night link, or let your crew scan the code, and everyone is in the same Night before the first song.
Film it. Chord catches the song.
Open the camera and shoot. Chord listens while you film and, when it catches the track, saves it with the clip before you’ve put your phone away. Loud room, unreleased ID? Add it in two taps. No signal? Keep filming — the song is named as soon as your phone is back online. Your crew’s clips land in the same Night, the crew chat is right there, and tonight sits on your Lock Screen.
Wake up to your night.
The next morning your night is waiting, already put together: the setlist you witnessed, in order; the Crowd Setlist — every song the crew caught, ranked by how many of you caught it (counts, never names); a Night Card to share; and one tap to save the whole crew’s night to your own library.
The song brings it back.
Memory of the Day and On this day bring a night back; Reflect plays it full-screen with its song; and a song from one of your nights can bring the night back to you.
Type “play me back to Sunburn” — Chord plays your real moments from that weekend back as a montage, each one with its song.
Your night, on one card.
Every Night gets a Night Card: your best moment, the songs you caught, and the crew’s top three — counts, never names. Made for Stories, and every friend gets their own.
The song comes back.
So does the memory.
Months later, on an ordinary evening, a song you caught live comes on — on Spotify, Apple Music, or anything that scrobbles to Last.fm. Chord sends a notification that names the song and the night: “You heard this live at Sunburn, Night 2.”
Tap it and you’re back in that exact moment — the clip, the crowd, the people you were with. The whole point of keeping it was so this could happen.
Off until you turn it on
Connect Spotify, Apple Music or Last.fm and switch it on. If you never do, Chord never pings you about a song.
Respects your Quiet Hours
Nothing lands in the hours you've set aside. It follows what you're actually listening to, not an algorithm guessing when you'll click.
“Don’t bring back”
Mute any night, any person or any song, for good. No ads, no hooks — it exists to bring back your night, not to keep you in the app.
Keeping it was the easy part.
The song coming back — that’s why you did it.
Your night, kept whole.
Built to keep a live show whole.
The moment, the song and the people you were with — kept together, private by default, and easy to find again by song, artist or place.
“Chord started at Lost Village, in the middle of a set I never wanted to end. I wanted to keep all of it — the song, the lights, the crowd — not just a dark clip that would vanish into my camera roll by Monday. Chord is the app I wanted that night. It’s in private beta now, and I read every message.”
Built on a well-documented finding: music is one of the strongest cues we have for memory.
30% of popular songs evoke specific autobiographical memories. Concrete moments, with people and places.
Your nights aren't a product.
Private by default. A Night is shared only with the crew who joined it. No ad targeting, no data sales.
No feed. No streaks. No ads.
Chord isn't built to keep you scrolling. Open it the morning after, relive the night, get on with your day.
Free while we're in beta.
Every paid feature is unlocked during the beta. After that, Free saves up to 30 moments; Plus keeps saving every night.
Every kind of night — together.
Festival, club night, gig or road trip. Capture solo, or send the Night link and your whole crew's clips, songs and moods land in one place. The morning after writes itself.
Go deeper.
Everything you want to know about Chord.
You'll remember differently.
"In a year, you'll have a season of nights. The opener nobody else remembers. The 3am track you finally put a name to. The encore you sang with a stranger. The festival where your crew became your crew. They'll live in one place, each one anchored to the song that made it. You'll search by feeling. The song will start. You'll be there again. That's what Chord is for."
