The problem

Producers don't have a sound problem. They have a finding problem.

4TB

of samples scattered across six drives, dropbox folders, and dead projects.

$$$

spent re-buying packs and sounds you already own — somewhere.

2019

that perfect kick from an old session? Gone. You'll never find it again.

Why Krate

Digging built
this music.

Before the cloud, before infinite libraries, the sound came from the hunt — flipping through dusty crates in basement record shops for the one break nobody else had found yet. That ritual built hip-hop, house, and everything after.

Krate isn't here to replace the dig. It's here so you never lose what you find.

Your crate, finally searchable.

Index everything

Point Krate at your drives. It finds every wav, mp3, flac, and aiff across every folder and subfolder.

Auto-analyzed

Every sound tagged with musical key and BPM the moment it's scanned. No manual labeling, ever.

Find by feel

Search "dusty Motown break" or "warm analog pad" and Krate finds it by how it sounds, not its filename.

coming

Filter precisely

Narrow by key, BPM range, and name at once. "A minor, 90–100 BPM" in two clicks.

Drag into your DAW

Pull any sound straight into Ableton, Logic, or FL Studio. No exporting, no detours.

coming

The founder

"I made a beat at 2am that I never topped. Months later I went looking for that one sound — and it was gone, buried somewhere across four drives. I built Krate so that never happens to me, or to you, again."
