The Weekly Playlist Problem
Every week, spinning instructors spend an average of 2.4 hours preparing playlists. Most of that time isn't selecting music — it's searching for it. Opening Spotify, checking BPM in a separate app, previewing 30 seconds, deciding the energy doesn't quite fit, repeating. Meanwhile, the actual musical judgments — which track earns the peak slot, what genre works for this group, how to sequence the climb — take maybe 20 minutes.
The problem isn't finding good music. It's finding music that satisfies BPM, energy, genre, and feel simultaneously — without a system that makes that search fast. Song2Run is that system.
How It Works
Three steps replace hours of manual searching — and none of them require you to give up your musical judgment.
Write a Phase Brief
Define what you need in natural language — BPM range, energy feel, genre direction. One brief per phase slot.
Get Track Candidates Instantly
Song2Run evaluates BPM, energy, and genre simultaneously — no sequential filtering, no separate tools. You get a shortlist that matches the full brief, not just one criterion.
Apply Your Judgment, Finalize, Ride
Preview the shortlist. Apply what you know about your riders. Select, place, sequence. The class knowledge stays with you — the mechanical search doesn't.
Built for Every Phase of Your Class
Song2Run understands that a spin class isn't one BPM — it's a sequence of phases, each with different musical requirements.
What Song2Run Does for Spin Instructors
Natural Language Briefs
No dropdowns, no parameter sliders. Describe what you need in plain language — the same way you'd brief a music-obsessed assistant — and get results that match the full brief, not just the BPM.
Phase-by-Phase Building
Build one phase at a time or describe your full class structure. The tool understands warm-up vs. climb vs. sprint — and what each one actually needs from the music.
Genre Breadth Beyond EDM
Specify any genre — hip-hop for climbs, rock for standing efforts, acoustic for recovery, funk for warm-ups. Not just "workout music" defaults.
Fast Weekly Refresh
Keep your anchor tracks. Brief the slots you want to refresh. Swap in new candidates in minutes — the modular prep system that replaces the weekly 2-hour scramble.
Supports Your Musical Identity
Include your genre preferences, your non-negotiables, and your "only I would play this" direction. Build a playlist that sounds like you — not the algorithm's average.
