About
Roadie Coach is the first and only AI-powered guitar and ukulele learning app that actively listens to you play and responds with customized feedback tailored to your performance. Unlike passive video tutorials, Coach evaluates your chord accuracy, rhythm consistency, and strumming technique in real time, offering visual cues and scores to help you improve continuously. The app features an ever-growing library of popular songs spanning rock, pop, folk, and indie genres. You can pick any track and work through it progressively — starting from individual chords and building up to playing the full song at the original tempo. The on-screen chord guide makes it easy to discover new chords and get instant feedback on note accuracy. Coach also includes a built-in studio-quality recorder, allowing you to capture your sessions, review your progress, and even mix and export your recordings. Performance insights break down your overall score, rhythm score, and chord score so you always know what to practice next. Designed for beginners and intermediate players alike, Roadie Coach pairs seamlessly with Roadie's lineup of smart automatic tuners, making it a complete all-in-one music learning companion. If you've ever wanted a patient, intelligent music teacher available anytime, Roadie Coach delivers exactly that experience through your mobile device.
