⚠️ Important: SmarterSingers provides AI-assisted coaching feedback intended as a practice aid only. It does not constitute official adjudication. The creators of SmarterSingers are not responsible for incorrect scoring, errors, or omissions in AI-generated feedback. All analyses should be interpreted as supplemental to — not a replacement for — feedback from a certified judge or qualified director.

The Process

From upload to improvement
in minutes

Upload a recording, get detailed feedback across four singing categories, and track your growth over time.

1

Upload your recording

Record yourself singing — solo, with your section, or as a quartet — and upload it directly to the app. Any audio format works.

2

Rate yourself first

Before seeing AI results, log your own self-assessment. This builds musical self-awareness and gives the comparison panel meaningful data.

3

AI analyzes your performance

Claude AI transcribes your audio and scores it across Pitch & Tone, Sound Production, Word Accuracy, and Rhythm — with specific, encouraging feedback on each.

4

Your leadership weighs in

Section Leaders and Directors can add their own star ratings and written notes. All three perspectives appear in a comparison panel that highlights agreements and gaps.

5

Track progress over time

Every submission is plotted on your progress chart by song. Watch your scores climb rehearsal by rehearsal. Contest scores appear as gold stars on the chart.

6

Log contest results

Enter official official Music, Singing, and Presentation scores after competition. The app uses them to calibrate AI coaching and give you real-world context.

Built For

Every voice in the barbershop world

Whether you're a first-year singer or a seasoned director, the Analyzer meets you where you are.

🎤

Individual Singers

Get honest, specific coaching on your voice between rehearsals. Know exactly where to focus your practice before next week's session — without waiting for your director's ear.

🎵

Quartets

Analyze your blend, balance, and together-ness. The AI listens for the things that make barbershop unique — lock and ring, vowel unity, rhythmic precision — and tells you what it hears.

🎼

Chorus Members

Your Section Leader and Director can review your individual recording and add their own feedback. You'll see how all three assessments compare — and know exactly what to work on.

🏆

Directors

Review individual singer analyses for every member of your chorus. Track who's improving, who needs attention, and how your section scores compare — all from one dashboard.

AI Capabilities

What the AI actually does

Powered by Anthropic Claude — one of the world's most capable AI models — trained on barbershop-specific coaching philosophy.

🎯

Pitch & Tone Analysis

Intonation accuracy, chord tuning, resonance quality, forward placement, and breath support — the foundation of barbershop singing.

🎶

Sound Production & Style

Open throat, vowel unification, dynamic shaping, voice-part awareness, and the ring that defines the barbershop sound.

📝

Word Accuracy

Compares sung lyrics to your uploaded score or arrangement. Catches lyric errors, mispronunciations, and missing text with specific line references.

🥁

Rhythm & Ensemble

Entrance timing, cutoff precision, and rhythmic coordination — without penalizing the expressive rubato and held tags that make barbershop barbershop.

📊

Score Library Integration

Upload your arrangement's sheet music or lyrics. The AI compares what you sang against the actual score for precise word-accuracy feedback.

💬

Director Summary

Every analysis closes with a warm, specific note written as if from a personal voice coach — what you did well, and one clear next step.

🔍

360° Comparison

When your self-assessment, Section Leader rating, and Director feedback all exist for the same recording, the app compares them and highlights what everyone agrees on.

📈

Progress Tracking

Every submission is charted over time by song. See your trend lines improve as you rehearse — and watch official contest scores land as gold stars on your chart.
