# Brief Matcher

Have your Sync Agent match your tracks to incoming sync briefs in seconds.

Music supervisors regularly send briefs describing what they need — mood, genre, tempo, length, vocal type. Manually scanning your catalog to find matches is slow and error-prone. In the Brief Matcher, your Sync Agent reads the brief and scores every track in your catalog by fit.

## How it works

1. **Paste the brief**

   On the Catalog tab, click Match Brief (it appears once your catalog has a track). Copy the supervisor's brief and paste the text into the Brief Matcher — the whole email body or just the key bullet points. (If the brief came as a PDF, copy the text out of it first.)

2. **Your Sync Agent reads the brief**

   It sums up what the brief is asking for — mood, genre, tempo, energy, vocal style — in a short Brief Analysis shown above your results.

3. **Scores your catalog**

   Every track gets a fit score from 0-100, based on the metadata in your catalog: genres, moods, lyric themes, BPM, key, which versions you have (instrumental, clean, stems), and your Sync Description. It does not listen to the audio or read full lyrics.

4. **Returns ranked matches**

   Your best matches, ranked, with a per-track explanation of why each fits ("matches the requested 110 BPM uplifting indie pop with female vocals").

5. **Submit directly**

   Click "Create Submission" on any match: New Sync Submission opens with that track already picked. Add who it goes to and save. "Generate Pitch" opens the Pitch Email Generator for that track instead.

## Needs your team (a team plan or your included 30 days)

Brief Matcher counts against your allowance: 2 brief matches per day on Backstage Pass (and during your included 30 days), 6 on VIP, and 20 on All Access (see Team Plan Limits).

> **Tip: Matcher quality depends on metadata quality**
>
> Tracks with rich metadata (moods, genres, lyric themes, and a Sync Description that covers instrumentation and sounds-like references) score much better than tracks with just title + BPM. If you're using Brief Matcher heavily, it's worth backfilling metadata on your back catalog.
