The Problem

Discovery is broken

Every streaming service traps you in a loop of the same music. The algorithms optimize for average taste. If yours isn't average, you're on your own.


How It Works

Discovery on autopilot

Sidetrack runs in your menubar while you work. It mixes songs you love with new discoveries — and learns what you think of each one.

🎧

Plays your music

Pulls from your library, liked songs, and listening history. The music you already love is the foundation.

Interjects discoveries

New artists and tracks woven into your listening. Five different strategies so you never get stuck in a loop.

👍

One-click feedback

Thumbs up: more like this. Thumbs down: never again. That's the entire interface. Takes half a second.

🧠

Gets smarter daily

Every like, dislike, and skip trains the engine. It learns your taste across artists, genres, and moods.

🖥️

Lives in your menubar

No app to switch to. No window to manage. Glance up, click, keep working. Ambient by design.

🔀

Multi-service

Works with Spotify today. YouTube Music and Apple Music coming. Your taste profile carries across all of them.


Under the Hood
