what our clients are saying
“These look fantastic! Music is subjective but I find that AI provides a level of detailed consistency not normally seen when hiring someone. Particularly, when that person is new to this specific corner of the business. The descriptions & keywords are spot on, as if tagged by a veteran of the industry. I especially like not having to spend time on the more laborious tasks of tagging tempo, BPM, mood & musical key.”

AI Tagging FAQs
Do I need a SourceAudio site to tag my music with AI?
We highly recommend maintaining an active SourceAudio subscription to continuously benefit from our state-of-the-art AI audio tagging solution.
A one-time metadata snapshot simply captures a moment-in-time analysis. However, the true power of SourceAudio is realized through an ongoing subscription that allows you to:
Instantly Access Evolving Tags
- Search audio assets directly in SourceAudio or via API across your platforms
- New uploads are instantly analyzed with our latest AI for real-time tagging & insights
- Tags continuously optimize as our models rapidly advance
Enjoy a Future-Proof Solution
- Exciting roadmap of new descriptive terms, techniques, and use cases added regularly
- As an active member, you automatically receive all major feature releases
By subscribing, you future-proof your metadata and unlock emerging categories that fuel advanced analytics, optimized search & discovery, synchronization opportunities, and revenue growth. Maintaining state-of-the-art intelligence ensures your content remains fully optimized for all streaming, licensing, and distribution channels well into the future.
The option of a one-time analysis exists but to truly capitalize on SourceAudio’s AI innovations, an ongoing subscription provides unmatched value, efficiencies, opportunities, and return.
Do I need an ongoing subscription to leverage your AI tags?
No. We offer the option of one-time AI tagging. However, an active subscription unlocks additional, continuous value including:
- Access to Future Upgrades: as our AI models rapidly advance, your tags upgrade automatically.
- Integration Options: through our API, integrate our leading search, sonic search, and metadata into your own platforms.
- Instant Tagging: new uploads get tagged in real-time with our latest intelligence.
- Cost Savings: for a small monthly fee, subscribe once for continuous upgrades versus paying per re-tag to access more fields, descriptive terms, analytics, and all of the other enhancements we have planned.
By subscribing to our monthly hosting SaaS product, aka “Catalog Manager”, you future-proof your metadata to fuel search, discovery, personalization, synchronization opportunities and advanced analytics well into the future. With flexible API integration options, think of it as powering your platform’s capabilities via our AI rather than just accessing our interface.
The choice is yours. But subscribing unlocks enduring advantages from both an economic and technological perspective.
What fields does the AI tag?
Genre, mood, style, style of, keyword, bpm, tempo, has vocals, and key data.
Can I export the tags as a csv file?
Yes, you can export your AI tags anytime you wish. And, just like Sonic Search, you can also access them using our API.
Can I edit the AI tags?
While you cannot edit the AI tag fields themselves, we provide tools which make it easy to copy or merge tags to fields which can be edited. You can also choose to include or exclude AI tag fields for search.
How much does this cost?
Every active SourceAudio Catalog Manager site gets FREE AI TAGGING included with their monthly service. Non-SourceAudio subscribers pay $0.50/track for a one-time snapshot of their own metadata. You can choose to AI tag specific tracks, albums, or your entire catalog all at once.
Is this service for me if I’ve already tagged my music?
Yes! You will see dramatic improvements in the relevance of your search results as the AI is impartial and isn’t subject to human bias, incomplete data, or human error. And, our AI metadata stays on time, on trend, and takes into consideration how the world is actually searching for music right now and into the future… that’s why we keep saying, “Future-proof your catalog with our AI tagging”!
