What you ask
In BRAVO's chat, or from your own AI once it is connected:
- What fails in this mix?
- Master this album for Spotify and Apple Music.
- Separate the stems of this demo.
- Export one WAV per track.
What you get back
- Six questions to compare any AI DAW on what matters to you.
- BRAVO's answer to each one, with its limits.
- A free way to try it on your own audio, on Mac or Windows.
How to do it
- Decide what you want the AI for. Writing music for you and doing the technical jobs on your music are different products. Name the job: a master, stems, mix feedback, a batch, an export.
- Check where your audio goes. Some apps process in the cloud, some on your computer. If your songs are unreleased, prefer the jobs that run locally.
- Check which AI drives it. A built-in chat, the assistant you already use, or both. Check who pays for the AI and what it can touch in your project.
- Check the terms after the beta or the trial. Look for what happens to your projects if you stop paying, and how much notice you get before prices change.
- Get BRAVO on obra.art/bravo. BRAVO is free during the beta, for Mac (Apple Silicon or Intel, macOS 13.3 or later) and Windows 10/11 (64-bit). On obra.art/bravo choose «Get BRAVO beta», sign in or create your free OBRA account, accept the beta terms and download OBRA DSP, which installs BRAVO.
Six questions, and BRAVO's answers
| Question | BRAVO today |
|---|---|
| Does it generate music or work on yours? | It works on your audio and samples. It does not generate songs, melodies, beats or vocals. |
| Where does your audio go? | The audio jobs (mastering, batches, stems and exports) run on your computer. Your audio is not uploaded. |
| Which AI drives it? | Its own chat on the Home screen, and Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex and Cursor through «Connect your AI». |
| Is it a full DAW? | Yes: tracks, clips, a mixer, instruments and effects, recording and export. |
| Does it check the result? | It renders and measures loudness, true peak, dynamics and tone by band, and its judge names what fails first. |
| What does it cost, and on which computers? | Free during the beta, on Mac (Apple Silicon or Intel) and Windows 10/11. Paid plans come with at least 30 days' notice, and your projects always open and export. |
When BRAVO is not the right pick
- You want a whole song from a text prompt: BRAVO does not generate music.
- You need the AI to mix your stems or put a vocal over a beat today: those jobs are not in the beta yet.
- You need MP3 or M4A import on Windows today: it is not there yet, use WAV, AIFF or FLAC.
- You need the app in a language other than English or Spanish.
Limits
- This page compares questions, not products: try any AI DAW on a song you know well before you choose.
- Mixing your stems, a vocal over a beat and a beat made from your samples are not in the beta yet.
- Beta: Mac with Apple Silicon or Intel (macOS 13.3 or later) or Windows 10/11 (64-bit).
- Free during the beta: open to anyone with a free OBRA account.
- BRAVO works on the audio you bring. It does not generate songs.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI DAW?
The one that does the job you need on your own audio. If you want an AI that masters, separates, judges and exports your music on your computer and works with the AI you already use, try BRAVO: it is free during the beta.
Is there a free AI DAW?
Yes. BRAVO is free during the beta on Mac (Apple Silicon or Intel) and Windows 10/11. Its built-in AI has a daily allowance, larger with OBRA PRO.
Will an AI DAW replace a producer?
Not BRAVO. It does the technical jobs and reports what it measured. The music, the choices and the final listen stay with you.
Can I keep my current DAW?
Yes. BRAVO reads Ableton Live and FL Studio projects to learn your sound and exports one 24-bit WAV per track that any other app opens.
BRAVO beta, The AI DAW, is free during the beta for Mac (Apple Silicon or Intel) and Windows 10/11.
