Product Roadmap
See what we've built, what we're working on, and where we're heading. This roadmap is directly updated from our development plan.
📍 Phase 1: Polish & User Experience
Ensure a smooth, bug-free experience for early adopters and optimise the free-to-pro conversion funnel.
Mobile Responsiveness: Fix layout shifts and scrolling issues on mobile devices (e.g., Editor viewports).
Performance: Optimize initial load times and editor responsiveness (reduce layout thrashing).
Error Handling: Better error boundaries for network failures during AI generation.
Welcome Tour: Guided walkthrough for the Editor interface.
Demo Projects: Pre-populated content to showcase features immediately.
Project Management: Allow all users (including Free tier) to delete projects to manage limits.
Onboarding Checklist: "Gamified" list of tasks (e.g., "Create first lyric", "Try Rhyme Finder") to encourage feature discovery.
Public Links: Share read-only versions of projects (`/p/[id]`).
Public Access Fix: Ensure non-logged-in users can view public links without redirection.
Enhanced Public View:
- Dedicated, distraction-free reading mode.
- "Remix this" button (for logged-in users to clone the structure).
- Social meta tags (OG images) for beautiful link previews on Twitter/Discord.
Landing Page Extensions: Expand the home page with:
- Detailed "How it Works" section.
- User Testimonials/Success Stories.
- FAQ section to address common questions.
GDPR Compliance: Add cookie consent banner.
🚀 Phase 2: Enhanced Creativity & AI Tools (Next 3-6 Months)
Deepen the creative value proposition, making the tool indispensable for writing.
Context-Aware Suggestions: AI that reads your previous verse and suggests the next line in the same style/meter.
Thematic Brainstorming: "Idea Generator" based on a keyword or mood (e.g., "Heartbreak in the rain" -> generates metaphors/themes).
Structure Wizard: AI that suggests song structures (Verse-Chorus-Bridge) based on selected Genre.
Audio Alignment: Ability to upload a backing track and manually timestamp lyrics to the audio.
BPM Sync: Metronome/BPM tapper that visualises the beat alongside the lyrics to help with rhythm.
Syllable Stress Highlighting: Visual aid showing stressed/unstressed syllables (if feasible) or better meter analysis.
History & Versioning: "Undo/Redo" history panel or "Snapshot" feature to save versions of lyrics.
Rhyme Scheme Visualisation: Color-coded highlights for end-rhymes (AABB, ABAB).
Thesaurus Integration: Built-in lookup for synonyms without leaving the editor.
Suno V5 Architecture: Optimised style tag ontology and prompt engineering.
Elite Songwriter Persona: Updated LLM system prompts with strict "One Metaphor" rule, syllable math validation, and structural constraints.
Anti-Bleed Protection: Implemented `///*///` token logic with manual injection controls to prevent lyric bleed.
Title Discipline: Added anti-cliché logic to ban generic AI titles (e.g., "Neon", "Echoes") in favor of grounded, creative options.
Tag Assistant: Built a smart autocomplete system for style tags with keyboard navigation (Tab/Enter) and "Type & Tab" workflow.
Production Notes: Added a dedicated V5 metadata display component below the editor for style reference.
Fair Credit System: Made "Line Generation" (Next Line, Rewrite, Rhyme) free of AI credits to encourage experimentation.
💎 Ultra Plan (Features Live!)
Provide cutting-edge tools for power users.
Audio Import & Transcription: Upload demos or voice memos for high-accuracy lyric transcription using advanced multimodal AI (Gemini 2.0 Flash).
Deep Style Analysis: Extract genre, mood, and instrumental metadata directly from audio files to generate style blueprints.
Reasoning Mode: Optional logic-heavy generation mode for complex song structures using advanced reasoning models.
Dual-Mode Generation: Toggle between "Standard" (Fast) and "Reasoning" (Deep) modes in the Lyric Generator.
Tiered Limits: Enforced strict project caps (Free: 3, Pro: 50, Ultra: Unlimited).
Pricing UI: Redesigned pricing tables with clear visual hierarchy, "Ultimate Power" badges, and feature comparison.
Feature Gating: Secure access control for Export Lyrics (Pro+) and Audio Analysis (Ultra).
🤝 Phase 3: Community & Collaboration (6-12 Months)
Create network effects and a community ecosystem.
User Profiles: Public profiles showcasing a user's shared songs/portfolio.
Community Library: A searchable hub of "Song Starters" or public domain templates.
Feedback System: Allow users to comment on specific lines in shared public projects (like Google Docs comments).
Real-time Multiplayer: Two users editing the same document simultaneously (CRDTs/WebSockets).
Team Workspaces: Shared folders for bands or co-writing teams.
💰 Phase 4: Enterprise (Future)
support professional use cases.
Advanced Export: PDF/Docx with custom branding/watermarks.
Copyright Assistance: Integration with blockchain or registration services for timestamping IP.
Analytics: "Read stats" for public links (see who is viewing your lyrics).
Mobile App: React Native wrapper for iOS/Android with offline support.
Desktop App: Electron app for offline writing.
🛠 Technical Infrastructure (Ongoing)
Testing: Implement E2E tests (Playwright) for critical paths (Signup -> Create -> Edit -> Save).
Analytics: Privacy-friendly telemetry to understand feature usage (e.g., "How often is the Rhyme Finder used?").
Accessibility: WCAG 2.1 compliance for the Editor (screen reader support).
Dynamic AI Provider Switching: Robust fallback system (Google/OpenRouter) to ensure 100% uptime.
Mobile Optimisation: Streamlined UI for small screens (Studio Mode indicators, hidden desktop controls).
