The flood

I'm Nick. I play afro and melodic house.

Every week I buy more music than I can really listen to.

  • Over 100,000 new tracks reach streaming services every day.Luminate, 2025
  • Genres that mean nothing
  • Duplicates you forgot you bought
  • Missing artwork, keys and labels

The moment

Saturday, 1:40 am. The room is ready for something special.

I know the perfect track is in my library. I just can't find it in time.

So I play the safe one. Again.

The detour

So I built something that picked tracks for me.

It matched BPM and key. It couldn't hear the marimba, the vocal that cracks, the feeling in the room.

My sets stopped feeling like mine.

So I built the opposite.

One track at a time. Listen. Swipe. Tag it in your own words.

Cuetto suggests. You decide.

  • Up to 100 tracks an hourReal tagging: listening through each track, 4 tag categories, rating and colour. Not just swiping.
  • Your tags, your system: 4 categories, up to 50 tags each
  • Rating, colour, genre and playlists on the same card

On the train. In the hotel. Between flights.

  • iPhone and iPad companion
  • Remote Access to your Mac at home
  • Everything syncs when you are ready

See what's missing. Fix it without fear.

  • Artwork, label and year looked up online
  • Duplicates found
  • Backup before every change
  • One click to undo

Same club. Same moment.

Three taps. Fourteen tracks. The right one.

  • Filter by your own tags right on the player

You're the selector. Cuetto is how you know your library.

A note from Nick

Why I built this

Anyone can mix now. Sync, key detection and auto cues made the technical part easy. What still makes a DJ is what you play next, and why.

One of the biggest names in house music calls his own library a maze. Another says DJing has gotten far too easy. I know both feelings.

Crowds want this week's remix and move on fast. Every week my library grew faster than I could listen to it. So I spent months building an algorithm that picked tracks for me. It worked, technically. And my sets stopped feeling like mine.

So I built Cuetto the other way round. It takes the chores. Every musical decision stays with you.

What gets in the way

Three problems, solved.

Three things kept getting in my way. Maybe you know them too.

  1. Can't find it at the gig

    You know the track is in there. You scroll, the moment passes, you play the safe one.

    With Cuetto

    Tag tracks in your own words. At the gig, filter by those tags right on the player, and thousands of tracks become a short list.

    Over 100,000 new tracks reach streaming services every day.

  2. No time to keep up

    New music lands every week. Listening to all of it properly takes longer than you have.

    With Cuetto

    One track at a time: listen, swipe, tag. On the Mac, or on your iPhone and iPad on the couch or the train.

    Up to 100 tracks an hour.

    Real tagging: listening through each track, 4 tag categories, rating and colour. Not just swiping.

  3. Chaos, and the fear of breaking it

    Duplicates, missing artwork, genres that mean nothing. And you don't dare touch it, because your cues and playlists took years.

    With Cuetto

    Library Health shows what's missing and helps you fix it. Every change waits in a list until you hit Apply.

    Backup before every change, one click to undo.

It never decides

What you play next.

Not the order, not the moment, not the track that makes the room go up. That part is you. It’s why people come to hear you play.

Cuetto suggests. You decide.

Your week

Your week with Cuetto.

New music won't slow down. So don't face a mountain once a year. Make it a habit: a little listening every week, and your library keeps up with the flood.

Questions

Before you ask

Short answers. Everything else is in the FAQ.

All questions

What is Cuetto?

Cuetto is a Mac app for tagging your DJ library one track at a time. You swipe through your tracks, listen, and add your own tags, rating, color, genre and playlists on a single card.

Everything you change is collected first. When you are ready, Cuetto writes it to your library in one step, with a backup made just before.

Which DJ software does Cuetto work with?

Cuetto works with rekordbox 6 and rekordbox 7 libraries on macOS. Older libraries from rekordbox 5 and earlier are not supported.

If an update of your DJ software changes the library format, Cuetto tells you right away. You can keep tagging, and applying works again once you update Cuetto.

rekordbox is a trademark of AlphaTheta Corporation. Cuetto is not affiliated with AlphaTheta.

Can Cuetto break my library?

Cuetto is built to make that very unlikely. Nothing changes in your library while you tag. Your changes wait in a list you can review, and they are only written when you click Apply.

Before every apply, Cuetto makes an automatic backup of your library. Cuetto also checks for conflicts, so it never overwrites something that changed in the meantime. If you don't like the result, undo the whole apply with one click.

Can I tag on my iPhone or iPad?

Yes. The free companion app for iPhone and iPad connects to Cuetto on your Mac. At home on the same Wi-Fi this works on every plan. From anywhere else, you need Remote Access, which is part of Pro.

The companion is not a standalone app. Your Mac needs to be on with Cuetto running.
