Cowriter

Write the song together, wherever you are.

One chord chart that every co-writer edits at the same time. See each other’s cursors, try a line without losing the old one, hear it in any key, and hand the finished song to your band on Bandleader.

In the browser on phones, tablets and computers. $5 USD a year per writer after a free trial, and included for anyone in a band on Bandleader.

  • Write together

    Everyone types in the same song at once. Both changes land in the right place, even mid-line, and undo only takes back your own.

  • See who’s where

    Every co-writer has their own colour, so you can see whose cursor is on the chorus and who has the song open right now.

  • Any key

    Write in letters or Nashville numbers with the chords over the lyrics. Change the key and everyone’s preview follows.

  • Saved versions

    Save a version before the rewrite, named and dated. Go back in one click if the old bridge was better.

  • Invite anyone

    By email or one link you can turn off. Owners manage the song, writers write, and viewers follow along without editing.

  • Send it to the band

    One click copies the song, key, tempo and chart into a band on Bandleader, ready for set lists and the stage.

From the writing room to the stage

Cowriter is made by the same team as Bandleader and uses the same account. Send a finished song to your band and it's in their songs, ready to transpose, put in a set list and play from perform mode. Keep writing afterwards, and update the band's copy when the new version is ready.

Co-writers don't need a band, just an account they can make from the invitation.
