Forget online duets. Clash face-to-face.
One room. One mic. 2–5 friends taking turns while Melodash scores your pitch, your words, and your face in real time. The funniest performer has just as good a shot as the best singer.

Karaoke was never meant to be lonely
The magic isn't online. It's in the room with your people.
Most karaoke apps are built for strangers competing over the internet. Melodash brings it back to the raw, chaotic fun of a real hangout — laughing, roasting, and battling the people sitting right next to you. Drop your guard, pull a funny face, and get lost in the cosmic arena.
Three ways to win the round
It's not just about the voice.
Pitch Accuracy
Hit the notes and hold them. Melodash tracks your pitch against the track in real time and rewards you for staying on-key.
Clear Articulation
Nail every word. The app listens for how cleanly you deliver the lyrics — mumblers beware, enunciators thrive.
Facial Expression
Sell the emotion. The camera reads whether your face matches the song's mood — so the biggest ham can steal the crown.

SwiftUI & SwiftData
Declarative UI drives the entire cosmic interface and animations, while SwiftData persists players, songs, and scores.
AVFoundation

MusicKit
Brings Apple Music in, so players can search and perform from a huge catalog of licensed songs.
Core ML
Runs our on-device emotion model, turning each singer's facial expression into a live performance score.

Detects and tracks facial landmarks in real time, feeding the emotion model live input from the camera.
Accelerate
