Help Build the Future of BPM Analysis 🎡

I'm David β€” a Breton πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ developer from France πŸ‡«πŸ‡· who's been obsessed with music technology since 2018.

It started with a simple question: "Why can't I detect BPM directly in my browser?" That question became realtime-bpm-analyzer, an open-source library now used by thousands of music producers, DJs, and audio enthusiasts worldwide.

We're Just Getting Started

The current library works β€” but I have a much bigger vision:

Imagine clicking a browser button and instantly knowing the BPM of any song playing on Spotify, YouTube, or SoundCloud.

Imagine AI models that understand complex polyrhythmic music as well as a trained musician.

Imagine automatically creating perfectly paced playlists where energy flows naturally from track to track.

This isn't science fiction. This is the roadmap. But it needs resources.

What Your Support Enables

πŸ’° Premium audio datasets to test across every genre
🧠 AI training infrastructure for next-gen algorithms
⏰ Dedicated development time for browser extensions
🌐 Servers & infrastructure for collaborative features

Every dollar brings these features closer to reality.

The Impact

This isn't just about better BPM detection. It's about:

  • DJs finding perfect transitions instantly
  • Producers organizing sample libraries effortlessly
  • Fitness instructors creating perfectly-paced workout playlists
  • Music researchers accessing accurate tempo data at scale

Your sponsorship makes this accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford expensive software.

Let's Build Together

I've maintained this project solo for 7 years. With your support, we can accelerate development and deliver tools that transform how the world experiences music tempo.

Thank you for believing in this vision. πŸ™β€οΈ
