Allow me to plug a dictionary/thesaurus site I've been running for decades called OneLook (https://onelook.com). Although it's not specifically aimed at songwriters, it does attract many of them as users. Over the past thirty years, I've added all sorts of brainstorming features for creative writers—like the ability to search for words by description, to match words with a given meter, and more recently to discover which colors a word might evoke or vice versa.

(I’m also the creator of RhymeZone so I'll plug that too! I no longer operate it, but I can pass along any feature requests you might have to its new owners.)



Huge, huge fan of the entire Datamuse stack. You have done incredible work toward building a mega-useful cognitive exploration tool, ontology and super-power for word nerds. Software and data which I would love to pay for.

Wow, thank you, that means a lot to me! And I'm stoked you found Spruce -- we added that 5 years ago, pre-LLM era, but it never got much traction.


Wow, OneLook and the rest of your Datamuse collection will help me a lot. Thanks!


Hey Doug, huge fan of yours. Thank you for everything.
