Real-time chord recognition for Bluetooth and USB MIDI keyboards. Intelligent harmonic analysis, not just note matching.
Stop guessing what chord you're playing.
WhatChord connects to your Bluetooth or USB MIDI keyboard and identifies chords instantly, giving you real-time feedback to learn faster, compose smarter, and understand harmony more deeply.
Play. Learn. Discover.
Unlike simple note matchers, WhatChord uses musically informed analysis to determine the most plausible chord interpretation. It considers harmonic context, inversions, and conventional naming practices so chord names appear the way musicians expect to see them.
