Autochords vs ChordCraft
Both stand on chord finder software. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.
Free plan iPhone
Autochords combines progression suggestions, instrument playback, and chord diagrams in an iPhone and iPad app with a free plan. Check the PRO limits and the post-expiry restrictions if you rely on favorites or custom progressions.

Pick ChordCraft if you want a free, web-based way to generate and shape progressions with playback, arrangement building, and audio or MIDI exports. Look elsewhere if you need more daily generations than the Free plan allows or need a platform other than web.
