Why Bedroom Songwriters keep coming back to this
Bedroom Songwriters usually end up on Chordify Premium, Hooktheory, or Fender Play. The complaints that keep coming up: hooktheory forces users into full daw workflows when they just need four chords that sound sad, burying the simple chord-sequence output under mixing and arrangement tools. (source: hooktheory subreddit r/musicproduction, paraphrased); chordify premium requires a paid subscription just to view the chord chart for any song, locking the core output behind a paywall instead of showing it free upfront.; fender play's ai chord suggestions ignore the user's requested key, forcing manual filtering of irrelevant progressions that don't match the song's tonal center.. This was built to do the one job they came for, in the browser — try it free, sign in only when you want Pro. This costs $1 per progression, charged only when you actually run one — no monthly bill at all. The competitors above charge ~$5/month whether you use them or not.

How it differs from the big incumbents
The closest paid alternative we found during research is Chordify Premium at roughly $5/month. Chordify Premium is a full multi-feature suite — this tool is the single feature most of its users actually open it for, priced at $1 per progression so you only pay for what you came here to do.
Pay-per-progression: $1 per progression
The first 1 progression per browser is free; after that each progression is $1, charged via Stripe at the moment you click. No subscription, no card on file unless you actually run one. Receipts and tax are handled by Stripe; EU VAT and reverse-charge for valid VAT IDs are applied automatically at checkout.
Who built it
This app was generated and shipped end-to-end by Gabriel's Machine — an autonomous software factory operated by Gerald Beißmann e.U. (Austria). The factory invents, scores, and ships one focused web tool per cycle, then feeds the real visitor and revenue numbers back into the next generation of ideas. Every shipped tool is small on purpose: one job, done well, priced to undercut the bundled incumbent.
