Why we built this
Learning piano from an app usually means watching a strip of notes scroll toward you and getting a score at the end. It works, a little, and it is nothing like having a teacher. A teacher explains the idea behind the notes, plays it for you, watches your hands, and adjusts in the moment.
Encordia Piano is an attempt to build that instead. The teacher speaks, it demonstrates on a keyboard you can see from any angle, and it hears what you play while it is still talking, so a lesson keeps its rhythm rather than stopping for every check.
We start from sound rather than notation, because the thing most people actually want is to sit down and play something they have heard. That skill comes from learning how harmony sounds and where it lives under your hands. Reading music is worth learning too, and it can come after.
Where things stand
Encordia Piano has not been released. It runs, it teaches, and a small number of people are being invited to try it in batches. There is one goal song and about twenty concepts behind it, which is enough to find out whether the teaching loop is any good and not much more.
We would rather tell you that than imply a catalogue that does not exist. If you want the current edges of the product, the FAQ lists them, including what will not work yet.
Who is behind it
Encordia Piano is a product of Voxoid Inc. It is a small effort, not a large team, and the parts that are unusual — the way the teacher listens and speaks at the same time, how it works out what to teach next — are the subject of a pending patent application.
