How tags help you organize your notes and give the AI richer context for generation.
Tags in Songwriter Notes serve two purposes: they keep your library organized, and they feed extra context into the AI when you generate music. A well-tagged note produces more consistent, on-target results.
Open any note and look for the tag field below the title. Type a tag and tap Add (or press return). You can add as many tags as you like.
Tags that describe musical or emotional qualities are passed to the AI as additional context:
Emotional: melancholic, euphoric, nostalgic, tense, dreamy, raw, hopeful
Thematic: breakup, road trip, late night, summer, nature, city
Structural: verse, chorus, bridge, hook, intro idea
Style: stripped-back, cinematic, lo-fi, anthemic, intimate
Example: a note tagged "nostalgic, summer, road-trip" with genre Folk will generate something very different from the same note tagged "tense, urban, late-night".
Use tags to group notes by project, status, or concept:
Filter your notes list by tag to focus on a specific project or find ideas at a certain stage.
Keep AI-context tags short and descriptive. The mood and thematic tags have the most influence. Structural tags ("verse 1", "bridge") help you stay organized but have less impact on the generated sound.
