This AI-Powered App Will Teach You Piano

If AI is coming for your job, you might as well get something out of the bargain — perhaps musical skills that will aid you in your new life as a subway busker? If you’ve always wanted to learn to play piano but don’t have room in your budget or schedule for a dedicated tutor, you can put one on your screen instead. Skoove is an AI-powered piano teacher compatible with PC, Mac, and iOS devices, and a lifetime subscription is currently $US139.97 (discounted from the usual $US300) through May 21.

Piano is a fun instrument to learn, but tutors can be expensive and YouTube tutorials can’t exactly give you feedback to help you improve. A subscription to Skoove Premium offers something in-between, marrying the adaptability of a flesh-and-blood teacher with the flexibility of working your way through an online guide. The piano teaching app’s AI listens as you play and helps you learn by pointing out areas for improvement.

Learn to play piano with AI

A premium subscription to Skoove includes access to more than 400 piano lessons, thousands of instructional videos, and one-on-one support from Skoove music instructors (human ones). You can use the app alongside any piano or keyboard, and lessons cover everything from classical (Beethoven and Mozart), to classic rock (The Beatles), to modern pop (Adele). There are lessons for every skill lever, so the app can benefit both beginners and more advanced players.

AI is hot right now, and AI integration is how Skoove attempts to set itself apart from other digital piano lesson apps and programs. The tech won’t turn you into a master overnight, but its ability to listen to you play and identify areas where you need a bit of extra work can make you feel less like you are going it alone. If the AI suggests you’re struggling to increase your tempo, for example, you can find a relevant Skoove lesson and practice that specific skill.
