Challenge
Clean tagging and constant improvement of search filters
Clean tagging and constant improvement of search filters are key to delivering music and finding it easy on the platform. The steady growth of the catalog makes tagging more and more difficult, while new features like bpm or key are requested by the active Filmmusic.io community.

Solution: Automatic metadata via API integration
Similarity Search to search the platform by reference tracks
Filmmusic.io implemented Cyanite’s music intelligence to automate song tagging especially in the fields of bpm, moods, and key. Next, a Similarity Search will be implemented in a new major update, allowing Filmmusic.io users to search the platform by reference tracks. The technology is seamlessly integrated via the Cyanite API, which means that every new song on Filmmusic.io is automatically tagged and added to the Similarity Search.
