We’ve released TECCI, a new dataset focusing on challenging image edits! (Including visual puzzles and much more)

Like DOCCI, all images are donated to the public domain, so you get the bytes with the data. See Aishwarya’s thread for more details and pointers.

1/ A new era, a new name, and a new feature drop. 🚀

ProducerAI is officially "Google Flow Music"! We're still the same team, with the same mission: building tools that push the boundaries of human creativity.

To kick off this new chapter, we're launching new capabilities to give you more control over your tracks.

Let's dive in: 🧵👇

[Jesse Engel @jesseengel]

Today, we're open sourcing the code behind "The Infinite Crate," our VST/AU plugin that lets you play with Lyria RealTime directly inside your favorite DAW! 🎧🎶

Since we released The Infinite Crate last year, it’s been used by some of our favorite artists - including a wonderful showcase with @daitomanabe in Tokyo - and being featured as a top new music tool at NAMM 2026.

We’re now fully open sourcing the plugin for developers to fork, modify, and make their own under the permissive Apache 2.0 license.

Feedback from the SF @exploratorium staff after making music with countless school groups using @producer_ai 🙌

“It opens up for them ideas of AI’s power and also creativity.

It helps people understand that AI isn’t monolithic 

It opens creativity not only with AI, but with collaboration with other visitors.”

Truly excited from this one!

"It allows you to completely break your patterns as a producer." - @harpt

We were recently joined by Tushar Apte, a professional songwriter and producer based in LA, to hear how tools like Producer allow him to find new inspiration and break out of his creative patterns.
