For your real piano

Learn piano on your own piano.
The app listens.

Pick a song, read the notes on the staff and play them. Your microphone checks every note — both hands, the right octave — and tells you which finger to use.

How it works

  1. Pick a song. 88 pieces, from “Twinkle, Twinkle” to Satie and Chopin, sorted by difficulty.
  2. Read and play. The note you're on lights up on the staff and on the keyboard, with the finger to use.
  3. Hear if it's right. Play it on your piano: a green ✓ moves you on, a red ✗ tells you what you played instead.

Made for actually learning to read music

Real sheet music

Treble and bass staves, bar lines, both hands together — like a printed score, but the page turns itself.

Both hands, right octave

Chords and left-hand notes are checked too, and it notices when you play the right note in the wrong octave.

Fingering on every note

Suggested fingers above and below the staff, so good habits start from day one.

Loop the hard part

Drag across a few bars and practise just those, round after round.

Hide the note names

When you're ready, switch the letters off and read from the staff alone.

Private by design

Listening happens inside your browser. Your playing is never recorded or uploaded.

Questions

Do I need a digital piano or a cable?

No. Any piano works — acoustic, upright, grand or digital. The app listens through your computer's or tablet's microphone.

Does it record me?

No. Sound is analysed live inside your browser and thrown away. Nothing about your playing is sent to us.

How do I cancel?

In the app, open 👤 Account and choose “Cancel subscription”, then confirm. Two clicks, no emails, no calls. You keep access until the end of the month you paid for.

Do I need to create an account?

No account for the free songs. To subscribe you type your email once; to use another device, we email you a sign-in link.

Which devices work?

A laptop, desktop or tablet with a recent Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox. Put it on the music stand, close to the strings.

Where does the music come from?

Traditional tunes and classical pieces in the public domain, many from the volunteer-run Mutopia Project. See the music credits.
