Phaso
Phaso is a web-based DJ set analysis and AI coaching tool. Users upload recordings of their DJ sets in MP3, WAV, FLAC, AIFF, or M4A format, and Phaso automatically analyzes them using audio processing techniques including beat tracking, key detection, and spectral energy analysis. The service provides a detailed breakdown of the performance, with all events timestamped for easy navigation. Key outputs include an energy arc showing how energy built, peaked, and dropped throughout the set; moment detection identifying significant peaks, valleys, and drops; and a harmonic journey that detects keys across different sections and flags compatible moves and clashes. Additionally, Phaso generates an AI-powered 'Read' that summarizes patterns and observations extracted directly from the audio data. Phaso includes a collaboration feature that allows users to invite a coach, mentor, or fellow DJ to view the analysis and leave timestamped comments, enabling back-and-forth discussion. The tool is offered with a free tier (3 analyses per month) and a Pro tier with unlimited analyses, 200 AI chat messages per month, moment editing, and collaborator invites. Audio files are stored securely and are never shared, ensuring privacy for users.

Problem solved
DJs often rely on subjective feelings during a performance, which can be unreliable. Phaso solves this by providing an objective, data-driven analysis of recorded sets, revealing where energy dropped, where transitions changed the room, and how the set flowed overall. This allows DJs to review their performances concretely, identify strengths and weaknesses, and improve faster.
Use cases
- Analyze a recorded DJ set to see energy arc and identify peak and drop moments.
- Review harmonic mixing by detecting keys per section and flagging compatible or clashing transitions.
- Get AI-generated coaching observations based on the audio data of a performance.
- Collaborate with a coach or mentor by sharing timestamped comments on the analysis.
- Track progress over time by comparing analyses of different sets.
- Prepare for gigs by reviewing past performances to understand crowd energy dynamics.
