About Play Anything
Play Anything is a music AI lab dedicated to breaking down barriers to music learning, empowering anyone to play the songs that they love.
Our first product, Songscription, is the AI-powered “Shazam for sheet music” that turns any audio into sheet music, MIDI, or tabs in minutes. Our second product, Anything Piano, is an app that teaches you how to play any song on piano. Across our products, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of musicians play, learn, and share their favorite songs.
We’ve raised a $5M seed led by Reach Capital and been covered in TechCrunch, Billboard, and MusicRadar. We’re currently a small team, but we’re moving fast to become a household name in music education.
