Getting Started

What is Soniteq?

Soniteq builds operational infrastructure for professional music creators. It's not another DAW or generic project management tool — it's the missing layer between "session done" and "files correctly delivered to client." The platform includes Kora (Creator OS), Export Flow (delivery engine), and Key Shift Pro (batch key utility).

Who is Soniteq built for?

Professional music creators: producers, composers, sound designers, and sync writers who work on real commercial projects with clients, deliveries, and revision cycles. Not hobbyists, not enterprise teams. Individual creators running operations.

How do I get started with Kora?

The fastest path is the Getting Started learning path — it takes under 20 minutes to set up your first project workspace in Kora. You can start with a simple workspace covering 80% of most producers' needs, then layer in delivery, revision tracking, and client management when you're ready.

Can I adopt Kora without migrating my entire system?

Yes. You don't have to abandon your current setup to start using Kora. The simple workspace path is designed to fit around existing tools — use it in parallel and migrate only what genuinely improves. No all-or-nothing commitment required.

Is there a free trial?

Founder pricing is available for early adopters while Kora is in development. Check the pricing page for current access status — availability is limited during the early access period.

Products & Features

What is Kora and what does it replace?

Kora is a Creator OS — a music-native workspace for project planning, revision tracking, daily focus, and client relationship continuity. It replaces the messy stack of Notion databases, spreadsheets, and notes apps that most producers use to manage their operations. Every feature is designed around how music production actually works, not adapted from software development.

Full answer →
What does Export Flow do?

Export Flow is a delivery engine. It handles naming conventions, metadata embedding, version validation, and batch delivery packaging — eliminating the preventable errors that happen when files leave your drive. One missed naming convention or wrong version can break a client relationship. Export Flow runs a preflight check before anything ships.

Full answer →
What is Key Shift Pro for?

Key Shift Pro handles multi-key batch generation for sync deliveries, sound design libraries, and brief responses. A single sync submission often requires the same track in 6-12 keys. Doing this manually takes 2-4 hours per submission. Key Shift Pro compresses that into a single operation.

Full answer →
Do I need all three tools?

No — each tool is standalone. If you only need delivery validation, use Export Flow. If you only need batch key generation, use Key Shift Pro. The full platform stack is more powerful when combined, but there's no requirement to use all three.

Pricing & Availability

How much does Kora cost?

Founder pricing is available to early adopters at a locked-in rate significantly below future standard pricing. The exact current price is on the pricing page. Founder pricing is intentionally accessible — it's designed for individual creators, not enterprise SaaS budgets.

Full answer →
Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There's no manufactured friction, no multi-step runaround, no locked-in annual contract required. Cancel from your account settings. This is a core commitment — creator-first means no dark patterns.

Full answer →
Is Kora available now?

Kora is in early access. Founder pricing is available for creators who want to lock in the lowest rate before full launch. Export Flow and Key Shift Pro have their own availability timelines — check the pricing page for current status.

Full answer →
Is there a discount for indie creators or students?

The founder pricing itself is the creator-accessible rate. Soniteq's pricing philosophy is built around individual music professionals, not enterprise scales. There is no separate student tier — the standard pricing is designed to be within reach.

Data & Privacy

Does Soniteq train AI on my data?

No. Your project content, session data, creative work, and usage patterns are never used to train AI models. This is a non-negotiable commitment — not a footnote. The full data philosophy is published separately.

Full answer →
Is my data secure in Kora?

Kora uses a local-first architecture — your project data lives on your device first, with optional sync. Data in transit is encrypted. No behavioral profiling, no ad network data sharing, no third-party data sales.

Full answer →
Is Kora local-first or cloud-based?

Kora is local-first — primary data lives on your device, not a cloud server. Sync across devices is available but optional. This means Kora works offline, and you're not locked out of your own project data if you cancel.

Workflow & Migration

How is Kora different from Notion?

Notion is a general-purpose tool that you have to configure to approximate music workflow management. Kora understands tracks, stems, revision rounds, client relationships, and delivery preflight out of the box — no custom database setup required. The comparison page has a full breakdown.

Full answer →
I already use spreadsheets for project management. Is Kora worth switching?

Spreadsheets work for simple tracking but break under revision complexity, delivery pressure, and multi-client volume. Kora is worth evaluating if you've ever sent a wrong version, lost track of revision status, or built a spreadsheet that nobody else could read.

Full answer →
What workflows is Soniteq designed around?

Revision cycles with clients, sync delivery batches, session-to-handoff pipelines, and multi-project creative operations. The model is built around professional music creators who have real clients, real deadlines, and real delivery requirements — not hobbyists or bedroom producers.

Full answer →
Will Soniteq work with my existing DAW?

Yes. Soniteq tools are DAW-agnostic — they operate at the operational layer, not inside your DAW. Kora manages project logistics, Export Flow validates deliveries, and Key Shift Pro handles pitch-shifted exports. None of them require DAW integration to function.
