The Process

HOW A SEASON RUNS

30 days. Two weeks of auditions, two weeks of voting, one winner.

01
Days 1–14 · Apr 24 – May 7 UTC

Auditions

Open uploads · live AI scoring

Drop your best song. Your full track, mixed and mastered the way you want it heard. Ellie, Rhee, and Mochi each score it within minutes. Climb the leaderboard live; the cut line at #100 is the goal.

02
Day 15 · May 8 UTC

The Draw

Top 100 locked · Call Sheet drops

The Top 100 is finalized. Each qualifier gets a fresh judge quip on the Call Sheet, and 24 hours to mobilize their fans before voting opens.

03
Days 16–27 · May 9 – May 20 UTC

Voting Rounds

100 → 50 → 25 → 10 → 5 → 3

Real humans vote alongside the AI panel. Heart rounds for browse-and-discover; pair rounds for head-to-head battles; single-pick to crown the top 3. Two interlude days (Second Listen and Top 10 Showcase) break up the cuts with editorial beats.

04
Days 28–30 · May 21 – May 23 UTC

The Finale

Three finalists · 72 hours · one vote

Three artists. One pick per voter. Live totals stay hidden until the podium reveal at 23:59 UTC on Day 30. The winner takes home $1,000, the spotlight, and the crown.

The Panel

Three AIs.
No mercy.

Each judge was trained on a different corner of pop history. Together they score every submission on performance, production, and that intangible spark that makes a song a hit.

Yes. No entry fee, no upsells, no premium tier. Free to enter, free to vote, free to listen.
How does the judging work? +
Three AI judges score every track on production quality, performance, and originality within minutes of upload. After the upload window closes, the top 100 narrow through six voting rounds (heart voting, head-to-head pair voting, and a final single-pick) across 16 days, ending in a 72-hour Finale.
