Your private music collection, perfectly managed. Take total control over the tracks you actually own. Catalog, tag, play, convert, and explore your rare mixes and daily favorites - all in one powerful application.
Why mess with a lot of different tools for cataloging, tagging, playing or renaming files when you only need one? Getting started with Helium is very easy — simply install it and import your digital audio files.
We have designed Helium to work with collections ranging from small to several hundred thousand tracks. Migrate from SQLite to SQL Server, MySQL, or PostgreSQL for optimal multi-user support.
Open the Assistant tab and just ask. Helium's built-in AI assistant knows your entire collection - it answers questions, builds playlists, cleans up tags and fills in missing Temperature, BPM and key, in plain language instead of menus and dialogs. Prefer Claude Code or Claude Desktop? Connect them to Helium via MCP and get the same powers there.
Find tracks by artist, album, genre, year, BPM, rating, Temperature, favourites or missing fields, just by asking.
Track, album and artist counts, total playtime, top genres, artists and years.
Describe the playlist you want - length, mood, era, rating - and it shows up in Helium right away.
Fix genres, years, artists, mood, key, BPM, rating and more, always with a preview and your approval.
Fill in missing Temperature, BPM and key in the background, without overwriting existing values.
Claude, GPT or Gemini - with your own API key or the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already have.
Tag changes are previewed first, then listed in a Helium dialog. Nothing is written to your files until you click Apply, and audio analysis asks before it starts.
The assistant can only use Helium's own music tools - not your other files or programs. What it reads goes straight to the AI provider you picked, never through our servers.
Prefer your own AI app? Helium also runs an MCP server, so Claude Code, Claude Desktop and other MCP-compatible assistants can work with your library too.
Most music managers just read file names. Helium's advanced audio engine deeply analyzes the sonic profile of your collection, giving DJs and serious collectors the ultimate control over their music's energy and flow.
Automatically calculate the exact tempo and tonal key (using the standard Camelot scale) for every track, making harmonic mixing and set preparation effortless.
Helium's unique Spectral Flux algorithm measures the pure acoustic energy of a song. Instantly sort your massive library to find the perfect track for any mood—from low-temperature ambient tracks to high-temperature club drops.
Experience your music visually with high-resolution, temperature-coded waveforms and detailed spectrograms that map out a track's intensity before you even hit play.
Never stare at an empty queue again. Helium keeps the music flowing by automatically building a dynamic radio stream from your library, so you can sit back and let your collection play itself.
Smart playlists analyze BPM, key, and track temperature to pick what plays next, blending tracks with smooth cross-fading for a seamless, DJ-quality listening experience — all without lifting a finger.
New: Cast to your speakers. Send what's playing to a Sonos speaker, AV receiver, smart TV or any other UPnP/DLNA device on your network, while you keep control of the queue, playlists, EQ and volume from Helium.
Keep your lossless library pristine on your computer, without filling up your mobile storage. Helium makes transferring your music to smartphones, tablets, or USB drives completely seamless.
Smart Synchronization: Easily sync your favorite playlists, artists, or highly rated tracks directly to your mobile devices with a single click.
On-the-Fly Transcoding: Automatically convert heavy, lossless audio (like FLAC) into space-saving formats (such as MP3 or AAC) during the transfer process - leaving your original desktop files untouched.
Volume Normalization: Ensure a consistent listening experience on the go. Helium can automatically normalize the volume of all synced tracks, so you never have to adjust the volume while driving or working out.
Helium is built for power users. Unlike closed systems, our platform offers unprecedented freedom to automate workflows, build custom logic, and extend core features using industry-standard tools.
Native C# & JavaScript Support: Write your own scripts using languages you already know. Effortlessly automate repetitive tagging tasks, fetch highly specific metadata from custom sources, or execute advanced database logic on the fly.
Powerful Plugins: Take customization a step further. Install or develop full-fledged plugins to integrate Helium with external services, add new user interface elements, and tailor the application perfectly to your exact needs.
Total Automation: Stop wasting time on manual library management. Whether you need a quick script to reformat track names or a comprehensive custom data provider, if you can code it, Helium can run it.
Support for SQLite, SQL Server, MySQL, and PostgreSQL. Experience true client/server architecture with multi-user capabilities for the ultimate scaling of massive collections.
Different tag editors with multiple capabilities. Support for quick editing whilst viewing.
Download pictures and information, convert files, automatically rename files and much more.

Automate multiple tasks with Helium's script engine. Create your own tasks and run in batches.
Go beyond the metadata. Helium automatically calculates exact BPM, MusicKey (Camelot scale), and acoustic Temperature so you can sort and mix your library by pure energy.
Take your collection anywhere. Sync tracks to your mobile devices with on-the-fly transcoding, automatically converting heavy lossless files and normalizing volume during transfer.
Keep your library pristine. Use built-in diagnostic tools to scan for hidden errors in your FLAC and MP3 files, and automatically repair broken frames and headers.
Helium catalogs, tags, analyzes and plays all major lossless and lossy audio formats - now including Opus.
