Ever wonder if you're actually a good dancer? Danzu tells you โ€” with a number you can trust. Film 10โ€“30 seconds of dancing and get a score across six axes, plus coaching feedback built from your own moves. Freestyle or choreography โ€” no reference video to copy. WHY DANZU IS DIFFERENT Most dance apps score how well you copy a reference video. Danzu scores YOUR dancing โ€” any song, any moves, any room. And it's honest: every axis is measured against chance, so a strong score means something real โ€” and when a clip doesn't carry enough signal to judge, Danzu says so instead of guessing. YOUR SCORE, SIX AXES โ€ข Timing โ€” are you locked to the beat, down to the 8th notes? โ€ข Groove โ€” the bounce that connects your moves to the music โ€ข Sharpness โ€” how cleanly your accents hit โ€ข Amplitude โ€” how big and committed your movement is โ€ข Variety โ€” the size of your movement vocabulary โ€ข Dynamics โ€” verse-to-chorus contrast and energy shifts SEE YOURSELF THE WAY THE AI DOES Your own video plays at the top of every result with a live skeleton overlay tracking you joint by joint. Weak moments are flagged on a timeline โ€” tap one and the video jumps right there. TEACHER-GRADE FEEDBACK Not just a number. Danzu points at the exact thing to fix โ€” "you're about 150 ms behind the beat" or "your arms land late" โ€” the way a teacher would, after every single video. MADE FOR YOUR STYLE Hip-Hop ยท Breaking ยท House ยท K-pop ยท Contemporary ยท Shuffle ยท Heels โ€” plus a general mode for everything else. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Every analysis is saved with its full feedback. Watch your scores climb week over week, find your weakest axis, and turn it into your strongest. Share your score card โ€” with you in it. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick your genre and film 10โ€“30 seconds of dancing 2. AI analyzes your timing, groove, sharpness, amplitude, variety, and dynamics 3. Get your score, flagged moments, and concrete tips 4. Practice, re-film, and beat your best DANZU PRO Unlimited analyses with Danzu Pro: $59.99/year or $12.99/month.
