Intelligence Engine

A first-class agent harness built into your DAW.

The DAW and its first-class agent harness were built together from scratch. Project-aware typed tools and guarded execution let it work on routing, device setup, and parameters, with hosted Anthropic, OpenAI, or OpenAI-compatible desktop routes handling model calls when configured. Generative MIDI and patterns, Basic Pitch, Whisper dictation, and mix analysis cover the rest.

A Complete Factory Suite

From wavetable synthesis to mastering-grade limiting, Sourdaw ships with a complete set of professional devices. The names are playful, but the tools are serious.
