CRATELAB
What it is
CRATELAB is AI-powered DJ software for analyzing tracks, organizing crates, planning mixes, and syncing a cloud library. Its desktop analyzer performs local beat tracking, and the site claims tempo detection to ±0.5 BPM. It identifies musical keys in Camelot notation, assigns an energy score from 1 to 10, and maps intro, build, and drop sections with colored waveforms. Mix tools include AI playlist generation, transition compatibility scoring, and an AI DJ coach for suggestions. Users can export metadata as CSV or connect with Rekordbox, Serato, and Engine DJ through the Sync page. Audio remains on the computer unless explicitly sent to the cloud; metadata syncs by default. Browsing, editing, and playback work offline, but local analysis needs internet access to verify the subscription. The Free plan is free, billed Forever, and requires sign-in; it includes streaming playback and cloud-library browsing and pulls. Pro is $9.99 a month, billed monthly, with 200 analysis credits per cycle. Each track uses one credit, and unused credits do not roll over.
