Pros
- + Best-in-class separation quality — vocals come out cleaner than iZotope RX or Spleeter
- + Granular stem options (10 instruments) is unique — most competitors only split vocals + instrumental
- + One-time pricing is refreshing — no subscription, buy minutes as needed
Cons
- − No real-time processing — you upload a file and download results, not a live plugin
- − One-time pricing means you pay again when credits run out — no 'unlimited' option
- − Separation quality varies by genre — dense rock/metal can produce artifacts
