Songs about one person, written from what you tell us

BeatJar makes personal songs. You describe someone in your own words; you get back a real song about them, with their name in the lyrics and your memories in the verses, in the genre and voice you chose.

What we do

A card says "happy birthday". A song says the year you moved across the country, the way they hum while cooking, the thing you never quite say out loud. That is the difference we exist for.

You type a few sentences about someone. We write the lyrics from those sentences, you read them, you hear a preview of the song, and only then do you pay. The full song arrives as an MP3 you keep. Revisions are free until it sounds right. Delivery windows run from an hour to a day, chosen at checkout.

The company is run by Erik with a small team, serving customers mostly in the United States, Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom. Support is by email, answered by people.

Three rules we work by

You hear it before you pay

Read every line, listen to a preview, then decide. Nothing is charged until you have heard your own song.

How the preview works

Nothing gets invented

If a detail is in your story it can be in the song. If you leave something out, we do not make it up.

Free until it sounds right

Change a line, a name, the feel or the voice. Revisions cost nothing and there is no limit.

Real songs, shown as they were made

The songs on the real songs page are actual customer orders: the story exactly as typed, the lyrics that came from it, the finished audio. If you are one of those customers and would rather your song were not shown, email us and it comes down the same day.

The song that was created for my wife Joy was amazing. It was everything I wanted to say to her from my heart put into a song. She plays it every day. When she first played the song we both cried and listened to it 5 more times to hear every word again and again. BeatJar you have really gave my wife a amazing gift. I recommend you to everyone who is thinking about giving this as a gift. It is well worth it for sure!

Folks I have seen a lot of new things you can do with all this new technology I saw Beatjars add and all kinds of questions ran through my head about how they could do such a thing like make a song for someone you love and I will tell you I did it I answered a few questions and told them a short story about us and only things me and her know got the song really quick I chose country it was beautiful my wife listened to it about half way through she realized it was about her and the look on her face was worth a million bucks she was crying by the end and told me she loved it and it was the best thing I’ve ever given her I really do recommend Beatjar

When my wife figured out the song was about her, she choked up crying. She was smiling, crying, hugging me and laughing. She told me afterwards this gift - the song, is the best gift I gave her. She said "you do lots of kind things for me, but this one was the best, it was perfect."

The song they created was even better than what I had hoped for. I got the reaction I wanted. (She cried and hugged me.) I was impressed with the quality of the lyrics. My wife even said that she felt as if I wrote the words myself based on our memories and experiences. I definitely recommend them.

When I sat my wife down and the music started to Play. When it sung her name. Her eyes widened and her mouth dropped, and I saw a tear started to develop in her eye.

My father-in-law is 87 and this song was for him. He loves playing guitar but unfortunately he can’t always remember the chords anymore. We chose country as the genre. He started tapping his foot and snapping his fingers as soon as the music started. Then when his name was said his mouth fell open and he started to tear up. I was the one who put in the information in because my husband got too emotional, After the song my father-in-law said “ wow! She knows me pretty well.

This was way better than I imagined. The control it gives you to customize the song. I was hesitant at first, but Erik reached out to me because my song sat in my cart. He was helpful and explained to me the process and how I can revise the song as much as I want. I finally tweaked it to the vibe I wanted, and when my wife got home I played it on the big speaker for her. She didn't notice at first, but she heard her name in the song she looked up at me with amazement and shock. She stared at me with amazement as she listened to the song, and then she began to cry and gave me a huge hug. I've been married for 21 years. Our lives are hectic, as we have five beautiful children. This was worth every penny, and it wasn't even expensive. The joy it brought her, it definitely helped us feel that fire again. I recommend this to anyone.

Oh. My. Gosh. Yall!!! This is legit. I really thought it was going to be a scam and a terrible song that ended up coming out of the whole process but I literally cried when I heard it for the first time. And I’m going to be straight up honest- I’m shook. I wrote it to be lengthy so my song came out around four and a half minutes but I wanted it to be long. It was like a one off- listen to on hard moments type of deal for my partner. I cannot waiiiit for him to hear it- they do offer change requests to the song through their BeatJar email attachment they send with your purchase. It’s sooo cheap for the quality of the song. I’m a true fan. And will probably use it more than just this once 🤣 HIGHLY satisfied. This was too good. Pro tip- use ChatGPT!!! I wrote my story in BeatJar, got those generated lyrics, and then took both of those straight to chat and asked it to match my story seamlessly with the “rough draft” lyrics, added the genre and emotion I was going for, and then copied those lyrics back into BeatJar to get the song. 10/10. Highly recommend.
