About AutoChords

AutoChords is a web-based chord progression generator. Users choose a progression type, optionally enter a name and instrument, select a key, and then generate a progression. The main progression appears in the chosen key with the notes in each chord. The site also offers an Alternatives section, which uses the circle of fifths to suggest progressions that may work with the main one, and an All Chords in Key section that lists the standard chords in the selected key.

The site notes that alternative progressions may not match the selected key exactly, so they are presented as options for adding variety, such as a chorus or bridge. The homepage does not state pricing, so the entry lists pricing as unknown.
