Published early · cloud storage launches after the beta

The app is the instrument.
The cloud is what we sell.

Nothing on this page is charged for yet: the beta is free. It's published now so you know what you're signing up for: what stays free, what a license is, and what a terabyte holds.

The reason to pay

Record direct to cloud

The take is safe before the last chord rings out. Recording still lands on your own disk first (that never changes), but each chunk uploads right behind it, while you're still playing. If the laptop dies at minute 47, minutes 0–46 are already in the cloud.

  • Session-aware, not file syncDrive stores files. This stores sessions: it knows what a stem, a take, a setlist and a role are, so bandmates can open the material, practice against it and leave takes for review from a browser.
  • Open anything, anywhereSessions stream to any machine you sign into. Local disk becomes a cache you size with one slider, with a "keep offline" pin for tonight's setlist.
  • Everything still runs on your machineZero cloud-dependent processing. Storage is the only thing that lives on our side.

Plans

By the terabyte, cheaper as you grow

One account holds any number of bands. Plans limit storage: never how many bands, never how many people. A band's $15 split five ways is beer money.

5 TB

$6.00 per TB

Holds about 80 full-band rehearsals with cameras.

  • Everything in 2 TB
  • Room for several active bands
10 TB
$50/ month

$5.00 per TB

Holds about 165 full-band rehearsals with cameras.

  • Everything in 2 TB
  • For the engineer who records every band in town

"Holds about" assumes an 8-track, 2-camera rehearsal of roughly 60 GB, or 4.5 GB audio-only. Music untouched for six months moves to cheaper archive storage on its own; your quota doesn't change and it still opens. Checkout is on the web; the phone app sells nothing, so no app-store cut is built into these prices.

Who pays

Everyone plays free. The subscription is authorship.

One account (usually the bandleader or the engineer) hosts the band. Everyone else joins free.

Guest
Free. Tap a link, play in a live session.
Member
Free. Open the band's material to practice, record practice takes into the band's storage, get timeline-anchored notes back from the bandleader.
Host
The subscriber. Owns the sessions and the storage, edits, records to cloud, invites, and decides who can add takes.
Co-host
A second author, on their own subscription, with the host's say-so.
The fine print, in plain words

Nothing is ever stuck here

These are the rules the storage is being built to. They're the whole trust model, so they're published with the prices.

  • Running out of space never stops a take.Recording finishes on your disk regardless. Next time you open the cloud library, you choose: archive something, free something, or move up a plan. Nothing is ever deleted for you.
  • Archive is lossless and instant to undo.Mark a finished album as archived and it counts half against your quota. Restore it any time, instantly. Re-archive the same project after 30 days.
  • If you leave, you get twelve months.A lapsed account's library is held for a guaranteed year, with warnings by email and in the app. Deletion runs on the calendar, never because you downloaded something.
  • Three free full exports, and a one-click copy to your own Google Drive.After that, at our cost, which is published. Open formats throughout, so every export opens somewhere else.
  • Project structure is kept forever.Even after media is gone, every session's structure (the kilobytes) stays. Come back in three years and it's all waiting for its audio.
  • The app only interrupts you about your work, never about our money.Disk nearly full is a real warning. A quota notice is a calm banner in the library. That's it.
Completely free

Host it yourself

Don't want the cloud? Serve your band's page and practice material from your own running studio, over a direct connection, at no charge: no relay, no storage, no bill. The limits are honest physics: the page is up while your machine is, the takes live on your disk, and a bandmate whose router hates direct connections is out of luck. When "Joe forgot to leave his laptop open last night" gets old, the subscription is here.
