Chartless
Live chord charts for any song

No song left behind.

Chartless listens to whatever is playing in your browser tab — or to you, through the mic — and shows you the chords live, in key, on the beat. Videos in the browser, streaming, anything with sound. Version 2.0 is the whole Chartless phone app in Chrome's side panel: tuner, chart, practice room and strings, one click away. Because every song deserves a little chart.

One Chartless, three places to play

Chrome, iPhone and Android run the same Chartless: the tuner suite, live and whole-song charts, the practice room and Strings. Pick wherever your music already is.

What it does

The Chartless phone app, in Chrome. Click the toolbar icon and the side panel opens with the same five tabs — Tuner, Chart, Practice, Strings, Settings — or open it in a full tab for a bigger, tablet-style layout.

SIDE PANEL

Looks and feels like the phone app

Same screens, same feel, right next to the page you're playing. The side panel stays open while you browse, and your 1.x settings carry over. Prefer the old floating chord box on the page? It's still there — one switch in Settings.

LIVE

Chords as they happen

Press Chart and Chartless follows the song in your tab: the current chord with its fingering, what's next, the key, the tempo, and a beat that pulses in time. Or switch to Mic and it charts what you play, with next-chord ideas for songwriters.

WHOLE SONG

A bar-by-bar chart, as it plays

Let a song play through and Chartless re-reads it into bars — meter (4/4, 3/4, 6/8) and downbeat included. Tap the 1 if it guessed wrong, tap bars to loop them. In mic mode, pause and resume, remove a bar you flubbed, and Stop keeps the chart.

FILES

Chart an audio file

Pick an audio file on your computer and Chartless reads the whole song first, then plays it back with the chart already on screen.

SIMPLE MODE

Made for worship & folk

One tap locks detection to the seven chords of the key (1 2m 3m 4 5 6m ♭7). Everything else is ignored — perfect for songs that stay in one key with steady changes. Advanced mode is there for jazz and fast-moving songs.

NASHVILLE

Nashville numbers, transpose, capo

See 1 · 4 · 5 instead of letter names, transpose to a friendlier key, or let the capo advisor say "capo 1 · play G shapes" — and it knows your tuning.

INSTRUMENTS

Fingerings for nine instruments

Chord diagrams for guitar, bass, ukulele, mandolin, banjo, piano and more, in thirty-plus tunings, left-handed too.

TUNER

A tuner you can watch

The full tuner suite from the phone: Single, Strum (all six at once), Strobe, and 3D — thirteen ways to see pitch, from a beat helix to sand on a Chladni plate to a mecha HUD that stamps LOCK. Sweetened temperaments, stretch and capo-aware tuning, custom tunings, an intonation check, and a reference drone.

PRACTICE

A practice room

Loop any progression at any tempo, in any key, on a warm pad or 120+ sampled instruments, with an arpeggiator and a click. Charted a song? Send it straight to practice.

STRINGS

Know when your strings are done

Strum a fresh set into the mic to fingerprint it. Check anytime to see how far the strings have drifted and about how many days they have left. More on Strings.

CHORD SHEETS

Edit it, print it, play it

Turn any chart into a chord sheet you can edit — sections, repeats, Nashville, diagrams — then save a PDF, copy it as text, or send it to practice. Made in your browser.

STAGE VIEW

Readable from across the room

One click blows the current chord up to fill the screen, with the next chord, the beat and the key still in view. Pop it out into its own window for a second monitor.

SONGS

Remembers every song

Every song you chart lands in your Songs library with its key, tempo and chart — open it later without the page. Need a full chart? Jump out to Ultimate Guitar, SongSelect, or Google.

NOT AI

Just math, no AI

Chartless is classic signal processing — the same physics your ear uses, written in code. No AI models, no cloud, no training on your listening, no guessing black box. Fast, predictable, and it works the same on day one thousand as day one.

PRIVATE

100% local

All audio analysis runs inside your browser. Nothing is recorded, nothing is uploaded, no account needed. Your music stays yours.

Why Chartless?

Apps like Chordify are song libraries: you go to them, pick a track they've processed, and read a timeline. Chartless is the opposite — it comes to your music, wherever it's already playing.

Private by design. No AI, on purpose.

Chartless captures tab or mic audio only while you're charting or tuning, analyzes it on your machine with classic signal processing — not AI, and throws it away. No models, no analytics, no data collection of any kind — the only thing it ever sends on its own is a license check. Read the full privacy policy.
