"I have not yet found any other platform that offers this quality (and I am searching very intensively). For a professional composer like me, this is a very good solution for visualizing songs. This is really a gap in the market for AI platforms!"
Gerold Beck
Composer
"I'm documenting our family tree with talking photos that share each ancestor's story so future generations know what they looked like and can hear their histories. This is something I couldn't have imagined two years ago."
Dorothy Wagner
