About Polychrome Computer

Polychrome Computer is a compact, browser-based songwriting tool that listens to your sung or hummed melody, detects the key, and presents eight labeled chords (by scale degree) to help you build progressions. It offers multiple voicings (triads, sevenths, sus2/sus4, add9, first inversion, no third), transpose by semitone or octave, and works offline as an installable PWA. Audio is analyzed client-side in memory and discarded — no recordings are saved and the microphone is released when you switch away.
