What Is a Song Detector?
Detect any song with the song detector — from a link, file, mic, or hum.
A song detector is a tool that identifies an unknown track from a sample of its audio. You feed the song detector a source — a video link, an uploaded audio file, a live microphone recording, or even your own humming — and it returns the song title, the artist, and links to play the track on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Deezer. This song detector uses acoustic fingerprinting, the same technique behind Shazam, to match your sample against a catalog of tens of millions of commercial recordings, and a typical lookup finishes in seconds. What sets this song detector apart from a phone app is where it works and what it accepts. Most people only know Shazam, which was built to listen through a microphone. But the song stuck in your head is usually already on a screen — under a TikTok voiceover, behind a YouTube vlog, or scoring an Instagram Reel. Instead of holding one phone up to another, you paste the link and let the song detector pull the audio directly. No link? Upload the file, record the room, or hum the hook. Four ways in, one clear answer out. Every match comes with the streaming links you need, so you can open the track, save it to a playlist, or share it without retyping the title into five apps.

Detect from a video link
Paste a YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or X URL and the song detector pulls the audio itself — no need to play the clip out loud.
Upload any audio file
Already have the file? Drop in an MP3, WAV, M4A, or FLAC and the song detector reads it directly, no recording required.
Record straight from your mic
Music playing nearby? Let the song detector listen through your microphone and name the track in seconds, just like Shazam.
Hum the melody you remember
No audio at all? Hum, whistle, or sing the hook and the song detector tries to match the tune against the catalog.
One match, every streaming link
Every match the song detector finds opens on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Deezer — pick your platform without searching the title again.

Why this song detector
A Song Detector That Takes More Than a Microphone
Shazam listens through your phone. Most web tools only take a file. This song detector accepts all four inputs — video link, upload, live mic, and humming — so you are never stuck because the audio is on the wrong device.
Identify the song in a muted YouTube video or a TikTok you can't play out loud — just paste the URL. Catch a track playing across the café through the microphone. Or hum the one melody you can't shake. Every path lands on the same clean result from the song detector: title, artist, and one-tap links to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Deezer.

Song Detector — Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you might want to know before using it.
For clearly recorded commercial music the song detector matches at very high accuracy, because acoustic fingerprinting locks onto the exact recording. Accuracy drops on heavy background noise, live covers, and humming, where the audio no longer matches the studio master. A clean 10–20 second sample gives the best result.

Yes. With no recording at all, hum, whistle, or sing the hook and the song detector will try to match the melody. Humming is harder than fingerprinting a real recording, so it works best on well-known tracks sung close to the tune.
