As a music producer, I constantly run into the same problem — I hear a track
and want to sample it or match its tempo in my DAW, but I have no idea what
the BPM is.
Sure, there are tools out there. But most of them are cluttered, slow to load,
or just don't work well on mobile. I wanted something dead simple.
So I built Find My BPM.
What It Does
It's a tap tempo tool. You tap a button (or any key on your keyboard) to the
beat of a song, and it instantly calculates the BPM in real time.
That's it. No signup. No ads. No bloat.

Why I Built It
I wanted a side project that:
- Solves a real problem I personally have
- Gets organic search traffic over time
- Is simple enough to build and maintain solo
A tap tempo tool checks all three boxes. Musicians and producers search for
this constantly, and most existing tools are outdated or poorly designed.
Tech Stack
- HTML, CSS, vanilla JavaScript
- Hosted on a custom domain
- Lightweight — loads in under a second
What's Next
I'm planning to add:
- BPM to millisecond converter
- Genre BPM reference chart
- More accurate averaging algorithm
