Deep Sleeve
DESCRIBE
THE MUSIC.
AI-powered search that understands natural language, cover art descriptions, partial memories, and vague recollections. In any language. Like talking to the most knowledgeable clerk at your favorite record store.
The problem
You shouldn't need a catalog number.
Every music search tool works the same way: type the exact artist name, the exact album title, or a catalog number. If you don't know these? You're stuck.
But that's not how you think about music. You remember cover art. A color. A vague year. A song you heard once. A description someone gave you. Maybe you know the artist but not the album name. Maybe you know neither — just the feeling.
Deep Sleeve speaks your language. Literally.
Four steps. Under three seconds.
Describe
Type what you remember. A description, a memory, cover art, a partial name. In any language you think in.
AI Resolves
Claude AI understands your description — cover art, years, genres, cultural context — and even corrects misremembering.
Database Enrichment
Once identified, we enrich with full metadata from MusicBrainz and cover art from the Cover Art Archive. Every pressing and variant.

Traditional search is always there.
Deep Sleeve is powered by AI, and AI has limits. If the service is temporarily unavailable, Sleeved falls back to traditional text search automatically.
Dig is fast — sub-500ms — and works great when you know what you're looking for. Deep Sleeve is for when you don't.
50 Deep Sleeve searches per day. Identical queries within an hour return cached results instantly. Traditional search has no limits.
NO OTHER MUSIC PLATFORM HAS THIS.
