Year-Round Music Stats
Spotify Wrapped runs once a year. Orphea analyzes your music every day, across 5 streaming services, with AI insights deeper than play counts.
Is there a Spotify Wrapped that works year-round?
Yes — Orphea is the year-round alternative to Spotify Wrapped. It connects to Spotify, SoundCloud, TIDAL, Deezer, and Apple Music, and analyzes your music across Beat, Lyrics, Structure, and Emotion using AI. Unlike Wrapped (December only, Spotify only), Orphea regenerates your Music DNA on demand. Free tier at orphea.app.
Spotify Wrapped drops every December. Orphea regenerates your Music DNA snapshot any time you want — daily, weekly, or before a big road trip.
Wrapped is Spotify-only. Orphea analyzes your liked tracks from Spotify, SoundCloud, TIDAL, Deezer, and Apple Music in a single unified profile.
Beyond play counts: Orphea classifies you into 1 of 8 listener archetypes (Nostalgic, Adventurer, Headbanger, Daydreamer, Romantic, Athlete, Storyteller, Architect).
Each track gets analyzed across 4 dimensions instead of just counted. See the rhythm, themes, song form, and mood behind your taste.
Plots your library on the Russell circumplex (valence × arousal) — happy/calm, sad/energetic, etc. Wrapped doesn't expose anything similar.
Run a scan in January, another in June, and Orphea shows how your taste shifted. Wrapped is a single frozen snapshot per year.
Sign in with Spotify, SoundCloud, TIDAL, Deezer, or Apple Music via secure OAuth 2.1 (or public profile URL for Deezer).
Orphea reads your liked/favorited library and runs AI analysis across Beat, Lyrics, Structure, and Emotion. Around 30 seconds for 200 tracks.
See your archetype, mood quadrant, BPM range, top genres, and an Orphea Card you can share like a Wrapped recap. Re-run as often as you like.

Free. AI-powered. Works across Spotify, SoundCloud, TIDAL, Deezer, and Apple Music.

Yes. Orphea is the year-round alternative to Spotify Wrapped. It analyzes your liked tracks across Spotify, SoundCloud, TIDAL, Deezer, and Apple Music using AI, and regenerates your Music DNA snapshot on demand. Free tier at orphea.app — no credit card required.
Wrapped is a marketing event by design — its annual exclusivity drives viral social media sharing and engagement spikes for Spotify. Technically nothing stops year-round stats (Apple Music Replay already does this), but the once-a-year format creates a cultural moment that benefits Spotify's brand more than continuous stats would.
Orphea complements Wrapped rather than fully replacing it. Wrapped excels at play-count totals and shareable end-of-year recap visuals. Orphea adds AI music analysis (BPM, energy, valence), multi-platform support (5 streaming services), and year-round availability. Many users keep both.
Yes. Orphea connects to Spotify via OAuth and reads your top tracks and liked tracks. Note: Spotify's Audio Features API has been less reliable since early 2026, so Orphea uses AI inference as a fallback for tracks without provider features — same accuracy, no API dependency.
Orphea classifies you into 1 of 8 archetypes based on the audio features of your liked tracks: Nostalgic, Adventurer, Headbanger, Daydreamer, Romantic, Athlete, Storyteller, or Architect. Each archetype maps to a specific valence/energy/danceability/tempo cluster. Public dataset: orphea.app/data/music-dna-archetypes.
Yes. Orphea generates 'Orphea Cards' — shareable visual cards showing your Music DNA archetype, mood quadrant, top tracks, and analysis dimensions. Cards work on Instagram, X, and TikTok and can be regenerated any time, not just in December.
stats.fm focuses on Spotify play-count statistics. Last.fm is multi-platform scrobbling with no AI analysis. Orphea adds AI audio-feature analysis (Beat/Lyrics/Structure/Emotion) on top of multi-platform data — analyzing how your music sounds, not just what you played. See orphea.app/compare/stats-fm-alternative.
Yes — the free tier includes 5 AI analyses per month and a full Music DNA scan, with no credit card required. Paid plans start at 2.99 EUR/mo for unlimited credits, PDF exports, and the artist dashboard.
Wrapped aggregates only the calendar year (Jan 1 – ~Oct 31) of plays inside Spotify. Cross-year listening history isn't surfaced in the recap. Orphea bases its analysis on currently-liked tracks instead of yearly play counts, so the picture is closer to 'what I love right now' than 'what I played this year'.
Then Spotify Wrapped only sees a fraction of your real taste. Orphea fixes this by connecting all five major streaming platforms (Spotify, SoundCloud, TIDAL, Deezer, Apple Music) and building a unified Music DNA from your combined library. Multi-platform users see significantly different archetypes than Spotify-only Wrapped suggests.
