Kora · By Soniteq

Live

Project lifecycle management for serious music creators.

Kora is project management software built specifically for professional music creators. It replaces the Notion database, spreadsheet, and Notes app stack that producers duct-tape together for client project management.

Plan projects, track deliverables, manage revisions, and keep execution momentum — built for musicians, producers, composers, and sound designers working at a professional level.

Local-first and creator-first by design. Your project data never leaves your machine without your explicit action. No model training on session content. No behavioral profiling.

In Short

Kora is a Mac-native project management system built around the operational reality of professional music creators — tracks, stems, revisions, delivery timelines, and client relationships — not generic task management adapted from software development.

Who Kora Is Built For

Purpose-built for professional music creators.

Producers & Beatmakers

Managing multiple client projects with overlapping revision cycles and delivery deadlines simultaneously.

Film & TV Composers

Recurring delivery timelines, picture lock pressure, stem approval workflows, and spotting session notes all in one place.

Sound Designers

Catalog delivery, library submissions, and multi-format exports across dozens of assets at once.

Indie Artists & Sync Writers

Self-managing album production, contractor relationships, brief responses, and sync library submissions without a team.

Workflow Snapshot

What a day in Kora actually looks like.

Kora replaces the 4-app patchwork most creators cobble together — projects, notes, delivery tracking, and follow-ups in one workspace built around how music work actually flows.

Morning: See What's Active

Open Kora. Every active project surfaces with its current state — delivery pending, revision requested, awaiting approval. No inbox archaeology.

Session: Log Progress

Mark revisions complete, attach client notes, update version status. Everything timestamped and attached to the right project — not buried in email threads.

Delivery: Preflight Check

Before sending files, Export Flow validates naming conventions, metadata, and version state. You send the right files the first time, every time.

After: Follow-Up Intelligence

Kora surfaces contacts and projects that need a nudge — based on delivery history, not on your ability to remember who got what two weeks ago.

Why Kora Is Different

Most project tools were designed to track software sprints. Kora was designed to track revision rounds, stem approvals, delivery timelines, and client relationships — the actual operational reality of professional music work.

Core Capabilities

What Kora actually does for your workflow.

Five core capabilities that replace the patchwork of generic tools working producers currently rely on.

Project workspace with music-native structure

Tracks, stems, references, deliverables, and client info live together in a single project — not scattered across 4 different apps and email threads.

Revision and feedback tracking

Log revision rounds, attach notes to specific stems, and see the full history of what changed — so you never send V3 when the client asked for V4.

Daily focus layer

Kora surfaces what needs to happen today across all active projects — without a second productivity tool. No Todoist. No Notion. No daily standup with yourself.

Delivery prep checkpoint

Before files leave your drive, Kora routes you through a delivery readiness check — integrating with Export Flow if you use the full stack.

Client relationship continuity

Keep contact notes, project history, and follow-up reminders with clients — so you don't lose the relationship between projects.

Meet Kai

Kora has a brain now.

Every system above is grounded by Kai — the local-first operating intelligence built into Kora. It ties your whole studio together and tells you the single highest-leverage thing to do next.

The intelligence inside Kora

An operating intelligence that runs your studio with you.

Not a chatbot bolted onto a music app. Kai knows your projects, deadlines, deliveries, releases, and relationships — it remembers what matters, learns how you work, and proactively surfaces the next move. Private by default, and it never acts without you.

Mac + iPhone

Kora goes with you.

An iPhone companion is in development — not an afterthought. Capture and glance on the phone; do the deep work on the Mac. Your studio stays mirrored, with snapshot-and-restore safety.

Capture anywhere

A one-tap capture button and voice memos mean the idea never waits for you to get back to the desk — task, follow-up, note, project, or contact, logged instantly and offline.

Sync to your Mac

Projects, albums, contacts, tasks, sessions, time, and audio notes stay mirrored — with automatic conflict resolution and a restorable pre-sync snapshot.

Glance on the go

15 Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets surface today's priority, follow-ups, the focus timer, and your release countdown — your studio one look away.

Offline-capable No account needed to use the app

Who uses Kora

Working Producer

Juggling 4–8 client tracks with overlapping revision cycles

You need to know what's due, what's waiting on client feedback, and what needs to go out this week — without a 30-minute system review every morning.

Film Composer

Managing recurring delivery timelines with picture lock pressure

Kora handles the project context that disappears between spotting sessions, so you're not re-reading email threads to remember which stems are approved.

Indie Artist

Self-managing album production, features, and mixing contractors

When you're the producer, A&R, and project manager on your own releases, Kora is the project-lifecycle layer that keeps all of that from collapsing into chaos.

Scope Clarity

What Kora is not.

Kora has sharp edges by design. Knowing what it doesn't do is as important as knowing what it does.

Not a DAW

Kora doesn't record, mix, or process audio. It manages the project and delivery layer around your existing DAW — not replace it.

Not an AI Music Generator

Kora doesn't generate music, suggest melody, or replace creative judgment. AI features are strictly contextual — helping you act on your own project data.

Not a Generic Task Manager

Kora isn't Notion with a music skin. Its data model is built from scratch around how professional music projects actually flow.

Not a Web-First Tool

Kora is desktop-native. It runs locally on your machine — your data stays on your drive unless you explicitly sync or share it.

Full Ecosystem

The Kora ecosystem (what's included).

Kora is a complete project-lifecycle platform — not a single feature. Here's every system it ships with.

Album-Based Projects

Project containers built around the way music releases actually work — not sprint boards.

DAW File Management

Track DAW project files alongside deliverables without leaving your workspace.

Whiteboards

Freeform creative notes and visual brainstorming connected to your projects.

Global Audio Review

Play and compare audio files across projects without switching contexts.

Tasks & Execution

Project-level and global task layers — so nothing slips between projects.

Focus Flow

Today's most important actions across all active projects, surfaced automatically.

Export Flow Integration

Delivery preflight built directly into the project workflow.

Naming Engine

Consistent naming conventions enforced across every file in a delivery.

Weekly Review

Structured end-of-week review to close loops and set up the next sprint.

Common Concerns

Questions before you commit.

"I already have a system in Notion — do I have to migrate everything?"

No. Kora is additive — you can run it alongside Notion and migrate projects gradually. Most creators find one or two projects in Kora is enough to see the difference without committing to a full migration.

"Will this slow me down while I'm learning it?"

Kora's simple workspace mode gets you set up in under 20 minutes. You don't have to use every feature on day one — start with projects and delivery tracking, add the rest when it fits.

"What happens to my data if I cancel?"

Your data stays on your machine — Kora is local-first. Cancellation doesn't delete your files or export history. You can export everything in standard formats at any time.

"Does Kora train AI on my project data?"

Never. Soniteq's data philosophy is strict — creator content is never used for model training, behavioral profiling, or sold to third parties. See the full Data Philosophy.

"Is it worth it if I only have a few projects right now?"

Kora's value compounds with project volume — but even two concurrent client projects benefit from structured revision tracking and delivery prep. The time saved on one rushed delivery usually covers the cost.

Who This Is For

The situations Kora was built around.

Not testimonials — the operational problems the product exists to solve.

Sending the wrong version Sync + commercial music

When the current file lives in a folder called Final_v3_ACTUAL, the version you send is a guess. Kora's parser reads mix and version tokens out of the filename and routes variants to the Watch Inbox instead of guessing for you.

Rebuilding the same system every few months Producers running a general-purpose tool

A Notion setup drifts because nothing in it understands a stem, a mix type or a delivery spec. Kora fixes those as first-class fields, so the structure does not depend on your discipline to hold.

Built for Your Work

Kora is built for your specific workflow.

Whether you're managing album projects, producing for sync, or scoring for picture — Kora has a workflow model that fits how you actually operate.
