Muse
Muse doesn’t just fix music discovery—it fills a gap in how we understand ourselves through what we listen to.
Core trick
Analyzes a YouTube song's audio into a six-dimension emotional profile, then uses it to recommend listening contexts.
Description
Muse doesn’t just fix music discovery—it fills a gap in how we understand ourselves through what we listen to. Streaming platforms organize songs by genre and vibe, but they miss the emotional context of listening: the way we use music for self-discovery, relationship building, emotional processing, conflict resolution, and getting into deep-focus flow.
Muse’s emotional profiling can power:
Smart playlist curation – “Find me songs for a rainy afternoon drive with my best friend” or “give me calm-but-confident pre-presentation hype music.”
Music therapy & emotional processing – Curate tracks that support specific goals like grounding anxiety, processing grief, or boosting motivation.
Relationship & social experiences – Generate shared emotional playlists (“our songs”) that reflect how two people feel, not just what they like on paper.
