Beyond25 — AI Music Curation, Backed by Real Research and Your Real Taste Stop scrolling. Say what you want to hear, and get a playlist worth pressing play on — one that already knows what you like. Beyond25 is an AI music curator that does its homework and remembers you. It searches and reads the web live, follows its own research as it happens, and hand-picks tracks with real sources you can tap into. Tell it a mood, a moment, an artist, a rule as specific as "nothing with a chorus." It builds the playlist, and every one after starts from what you already like instead of from zero. START FREE Every account gets free curation credits that refill every month. No card, no subscription, no trial countdown. Build your first playlist in about a minute. HOW IT WORKS Chat naturally — "Melancholic indie for a rainy drive," "Late-night R&B energy," "Songs that feel like early Arctic Monkeys" The AI researches live — real web search, cited sources, no scripted answers Watch it think, then read the liner notes behind your finished playlist Save with one tap to Apple Music or YouTube Music — or send it to Spotify, Tidal, Deezer and about fifty more in a minute Refine from there — remix a session, tweak the vibe, or start fresh YOUR TASTE The AI remembers what you actually like between conversations, so your fifth playlist starts from your taste, not the internet's idea of one. See it as a map of artists, genres and eras, rate artists with a swipe to sharpen it fast, and change anything you don't agree with. Share it as a story, or compare with a friend. Free on every plan. WHAT'S INSIDE Any size — from a tight ten-track set to a 5,000-track deep dive Research Mode — multi-pass deep research for tricky or niche requests Canvas — build the same request from mood, genre and decade chips, no typing Skills — save your own rules once and reuse them, or install one from the gallery Blend Vibes — invite up to 8 friends with a link (no account needed) for one playlist built from everyone's words Copy or sync a playlist between your connected services Your whole library as context — curation that already knows what you listen to Generated playlist cover art Voice mode — talk to the curator in real time, or have replies read aloud Curator filters — Clean Lyrics, Christian Music, and PIN-protected age modes for kids and teens Discover — trending playlists, mood shelves, and a gallery to browse and remix Share any playlist, session or taste profile with a public link Privacy controls — switch off library, playlist or web access anytime; turning it off deletes the cached data English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Japanese Sign in with Apple or Google Free plan may show an occasional ad for another indie app — our partner matches apps, not people, and doesn't track you. Data is not sold. PLANS Free — 25 credits every month, renewed automatically. No card required. Includes your taste profile, prompt and Canvas curation, and saving to your music service. Plus, $7.99/month or $69.99/year — 750 credits a month, Research Mode, your whole library as context, and generated playlist cover art. Pro, $14.99/month or $119.99/year — 1,500 credits a month, everything in Plus, plus real-time voice conversations with the curator and the highest model tier. Credits power AI curation, voice and the other AI features, and refill every month. Playlist count and your taste profile are never metered.
