What you get

Everything that arrives, from $9.

Written and sung by AI from what you tell us. We say so plainly, because you will hear it and because the part that matters — the details — came from you.

Prices shown in US dollars. In the UK, Europe, Australia, Canada and New Zealand you are charged in your own currency at checkout.

What it does with them

How one detail becomes a line.

The kind of thing people type about a new job, and the kind of line it comes back as. Written examples — the songs above are the real ones.

You writeForty applications before this one

It singsThirty-nine no thank yous, and then the one that counted

You writeLeaving a job he had outgrown years ago

It singsYou stayed too long in a room that got too small

You writeStarts Monday and is quietly terrified

It singsMonday morning, new door, and nobody there knows yet

Before you ask

Questions people ask.

Is this a colleague gift or a family gift?

Both work, and they read differently. From family it is about the years of effort; from colleagues it is about what the old place is losing. Say which you are in the brief.

Can it be sent to a work email?

It is a link, so it can go anywhere, but a personal address is safer if it mentions the job they are leaving.

What if the new job is a big risk?

Say so. A song that acknowledges they have jumped rather than climbed is the one they will play on a bad week in the first month, which is when it is actually needed.

Can I make one for someone starting their first job?

Yes, and it marks something that usually passes without any gift at all. Write about what they were doing before and what they are walking into, and it becomes a record of the switch.

Is it appropriate to send one to somebody leaving my team?

It is one of the commonest uses. Keep it to what they were known for at work and what the place loses, and it stays comfortable to open in front of colleagues.

What if they were made redundant first?

Then the song is about what it took to get back, which is a stronger subject than the job itself. Say what happened in the brief and it is written with that behind it rather than around it.

How much does a personalized song cost?

Three lengths: $9 for about a minute, $29 for about two minutes, and $49 for about four minutes, with more re-records and an ending that signs off from you by name. One payment, no subscription.

How long does it take?

Minutes. You answer the questions, read the words, and the recording is made while you wait, there is no queue and no human songwriter to book. Most people finish the whole thing in under a quarter of an hour.

Is it written by a person or by AI?

AI writes and sings it from the details you give. We say so on every page rather than burying it, because you will hear it in the vocal. What is not automated is the part that makes it land: the specifics come from you, and you read the words before you pay.

What if I do not like it?

You see the first verse and chorus before paying, so the usual answer is to change your answers and go again for nothing. After paying, the Little and Big Ditty include re-records if a take comes out wrong.

Can I keep it, and does the link expire?

It does not expire. You get an MP3 to download and a link you can share, and we keep the song indefinitely, there is no window you have to act inside.

Can I play it at a party or an event?

Yes. It comes with a licence to play it at your own event, and the MP3 is yours to hand to a DJ or put on a phone. Use the download rather than the link if the venue wifi is unreliable.

Two minutes to tell their story.

We write it, sing it, and paint the card. You take the credit. From $9.
