Music Fetch
One question — what is this track? — answered for inputs that are usually hopeless: noisy web video, whole playlists, local files. Local and free first; hosted services only if you bring credentials.
what it is
A local-first recognition tool. Ingestion follows whatever yt-dlp supports — YouTube, Shorts, Instagram, TikTok, Vimeo — plus anything already on disk. The engine scans overlapping windows from the original mix and, when available, a separated instrumental stem, so a voice-over or crowd noise doesn’t end the search.
Short clips use aggressive early-stop logic; long videos and mixes switch to a clustered mode with request budgets, excerpt caching, and repeated hits fused into timeline segments. Detached jobs can be submitted, watched, and inspected down to per-provider metrics.

vocal / instrumental separation cleans noisy audio before matching.
