Chords365 isn't a ready-made song catalog — it's a digital chord book: you decide what goes in and where it comes from. Type a song in, import it from ChordPro or ZIP, photograph the paper chart, or pull it in from several public song libraries — then add audio recordings and stem sets alongside (even from YouTube) to make learning easier for singers and players alike. Its greatest strength is that the whole team's life comes together in one place: shared setlists, events, media library and broadcast messages. Built by one musician, for musicians — from the heart.
Your own sources
Type it in, import from ChordPro or ZIP, scan a photographed chart, or pull from several public song libraries.
Chords and sheet music in one
ChordPro with automatic transposing and classic sheet images — for one song, side by side.
Audio for learning
Audio recordings and stem sets, separated even from YouTube, for easier practice.
The whole team
Shared setlist, events, media library and broadcast messages — all in one place for singers and players.

A digital songbook — right in your browser
Know Planning Center Music Stand, OnSong, forScore, MobileSheets or SongBook+? Chords365 is in the same category: a digital sheet music organizer for musicians and music teams — only it isn’t a separate installed program, it runs in your browser, on any device.
Music Stand
Planning Center’s app for musicians: it displays the setlists and chord charts built in Planning Center Services — on mobile and in the browser, with an active Planning Center subscription.
OnSong
A popular, Apple-only (iOS/macOS) chord-chart app with song management, transposition, live device sync and projection.
forScore
The best-known Apple-only (iPad/iPhone/Mac) PDF sheet-music reader: it manages scores and setlists, but isn’t chord-based.
Chords365
Runs in the browser and on every platform, free to start — a chord and sheet-music organizer with built-in team sync and projection.
They all help with the same job: organizing songs, chords, lyrics and setlists from rehearsal to stage. The difference is that Chords365 runs in your browser — no install, no device lock-in — with both H and B note naming, built-in projection and offline support.

A dash (–) marks partial or plan-dependent support: OnSong’s free tier is limited (transposition, projection and sync require a subscription), and Planning Center Music Stand requires an active Planning Center subscription. This comparison is based on publicly available information as of July 2026; features and pricing may change.

Honestly: what is Chords365 NOT?
It's not a licensed song catalog and not a complete team management system. You upload your own songs that you have the right to use, and Chords365 adds what's missing at rehearsal and performance: quick search, shared setlist, chord notation, offline reliability and stage usability.
Users are responsible for only uploading and using content they have the rights to. Chords365 is not a public song catalogue and does not distribute copyrighted music.
A one-person labour of love, running since 2022. It started out as chords.hu and has now opened up to the world as chords365.com - but the heart of it hasn't changed: built by one musician, for musicians.
