Cyanite

Cyanite is an AI tool. Cyanite provides AI music tagging and similarity search for catalog owners and music companies. It auto-generates genre, mood, instrument, lyric theme, and tempo tags plus natural language descriptions, then powers similarity and free text search through a web app, API, and CMS integrations.

Cyanite is an AI platform built for the business side of music: catalog owners, sync agencies, labels, and anyone who needs to organize a large library and make it searchable. Its core product automatically tags songs with genre, mood, instruments, lyric theme, and tempo, then generates natural language descriptions that capture a track's character. Those tags feed two search modes. Similarity Search finds tracks that sound alike, with filters for genre and BPM, while Free Text Search converts plain language prompts into matching results. The pitch is straightforward: less manual metadata work, faster discovery, and better placement of existing assets. The tool runs in two forms. A web app gives catalog teams a ready interface for browsing and analysis, while an API lets developers push audio through the same tagging and search pipeline inside their own systems. Cyanite also points to music content management systems as a common integration path, with published case studies from companies such as Marmoset, Thematic, SyncMyMusic, and a CMS-focused study covering content management workflows. That makes the product most relevant to operations where music is inventory rather than a personal listening hobby. Practically, a new user registers, uploads tracks to the web library, and reviews the generated tags and descriptions. From there, search becomes the daily workflow: a supervisor looking for a specific feel can either describe it in text or seed a similarity query from an existing track. Teams that need the same capability at scale move to the API, where documentation covers request structure and search parameters. Cyanite states that its algorithms are developed in-house rather than built on third-party models like ChatGPT, and that data is hosted on EU servers with GDPR compliance, which matters for organizations handling rights-sensitive material. The platform has been active since 2019 and claims adoption by more than 200 companies. Its edge is depth in music-specific metadata and search rather than breadth across media types. Buyers comparing general AI tagging tools will find Cyanite narrower but more specialized; buyers comparing manual cataloging will find the tradeoff is between subscription cost and the labor saved on listening, labeling, and hunting through folders.
