Why Plinth
Built for people who own their music
No subscription. Ever.
One purchase, permanent. Your music lives on your device, not a server that might raise prices, go offline, or lock you out.
Device Sync
Pair your Mac with your iPhone or iPad over Wi-Fi. Choose what syncs, review a plan before anything moves, and keep tags and artwork in step — no cloud, no internet required.
AI DJ
Queue suggestions powered by Apple Intelligence, Ollama, or Grok (xAI) — weighted by your 25 most recent plays, not a popularity graph.
Wi-Fi import
Plinth shows a local address and QR code. Open it in Safari on your Mac, then drag audio files from Finder into the page. No cable, no iTunes, no cloud account.
Audiophile formats
FLAC, WAV, ALAC, AIFF, MP3, M4A. Hi-Res Lossless badges. Gapless playback. Crossfade. Bit-perfect output.
Research Mode
Jumps to the midpoint of each track, plays 15 seconds, then auto-advances. Rediscover a 500-album library in an evening.
CarPlay
Full CarPlay support with albums, artists, and songs. Shuffle, repeat, and research mode controls right on your dashboard.
Listening stats
Play counts, top artists, top albums, most-skipped tracks, and a 'neglected album' card that surfaces records you forgot you owned.
Metadata & lyrics
Edit tags, bulk-set album artists, fetch artwork from MusicBrainz and iTunes, and search lyrics to attach to any song.
AI DJ
A DJ that reads your history,
not the algorithm
Plinth feeds your library and listening history to an AI. It suggests what to queue next based on what you replay, what you skip, and what you've been into lately — not what's trending.
Already pay for Claude or ChatGPT? Bring that key and it powers your queue. Prefer nothing to leave the room at all? Apple Intelligence runs on-device and Ollama runs on your own machine. Either way your audio files stay put — only text metadata is ever sent.

Playback Modes
Four ways to listen.
One is unlike anything else.
Research Mode jumps to the midpoint of each track, plays 15 seconds, then auto-advances. It's the fastest way to rediscover records you imported years ago and never really heard.

actually play.
Top artists, top albums, most-skipped tracks — and a neglected album card that surfaces records you forgot you owned. Nothing synced to a server; every count stays on your device.

Every tag.
Every word.
