Evidence files vs persistent desk
vocumi vs ainr
Sourced research files vs a persistent desk
ainr is agentic scouting with sourced dossiers: you describe the artist you want, and it files ranked names. vocumi is a workspace: Vibe Search when you run it, a licensed Score on the desk, Pulse, a print-ready snapshot, and Chrome on the open page. Both start with language. They do not finish in the same place.

The same jobs, side by side
| Job | ainr | vocumi |
|---|---|---|
| Discovery | A written brief; a scout files a ranked slate with sourced evidence. | On-demand Vibe Search (Pro and Team, and during the trial). Direct Search unlimited. Vibe Search rows do not carry sentence-level web citations. |
| Evaluation | Sourced dossiers, including a listening pass against reference tracks. | vocumi Score is a 0–100 composite indicator from licensed Soundcharts metrics. It is not a measure of artistic quality and it does not predict a hit. Similar Artists from an act you already trust. vocumi does not run a listening pass against reference audio. |
| Decision support | Filed reports you can act on after a research run. | Pulse is a written brief of what changed and why it matters for the meeting (Pro and Team, and during the trial). The print-ready report is a point-in-time snapshot of the desk: Score, Pulse, and roster notes. |
| Workflow and collaboration | Research files around each run. | Shared workspace roster, notes, and tags. Team seats on Team. Chrome identifies artists on the page you are already reading and adds them to the desk. |
| Monitoring and tracking | Watchlist and files that update when you send more research. | Roster tracking, weekly digest, and breakout alerts watch artists you already hold (Pro and Team, and during the trial). Vibe Search does not keep searching after you close the tab. |
| Data and integrations | Open-web and platform research for dossiers. | Licensed Soundcharts metrics for scores and tracking after you shortlist. Spotify for search and identity. No public customer API. Vibe Search rows do not carry sentence-level web citations. vocumi does not run a listening pass against reference audio. |
vocumi Score is a 0–100 composite of Productivity, Market Reach, Fan Investment, and Catalog Health (Independence when a real label exists). Hype and Trend are separate. It uses licensed Soundcharts metrics once an artist is on the roster. It is not a measure of artistic quality and it does not predict a hit. Methodology: https://vocumi.com/methodology
A realistic brief
I need three emerging artists that fit a rainy-day jazz brief, and I have to present a shortlist on Friday.
In ainr
You write the brief and send a scout. It files a ranked slate with sourced dossiers. You read the file when the run comes back.
In vocumi
Type the sound into Vibe Search, add the names that fit to the roster, compare them on vocumi Score, generate a Pulse brief, and print the desk snapshot. Vibe Search is one natural-language query. It does not filter by audience age. There are no sourced web citations on each Vibe row.
Choose ainr if
- You need a paper trail, sourced dossiers, or a listening pass against tracks you already like.
- You want research that runs as a job and files a sourced report.
Choose vocumi if
- The team lives in a roster, needs a comparable licensed Score, and walks into Friday with a desk snapshot.
- You want Chrome on the page you are already reading.
Use both if
- Let ainr file unknown names with evidence. Hold the ones you are taking to the meeting on the vocumi desk.
Choose ainr when the job is sourced research that files a report. Choose vocumi when the job is a persistent desk and a decision-ready snapshot.
