Piano Chord Finder

See the chord name the instant you press a key on your MIDI keyboard.

When you are learning chords, you want fast answers, not extra steps. A chord finder gives you immediate clarity by showing the exact chord you are playing the moment you play it. This keeps your practice moving, helps you avoid guessing, and supports both beginners who are still learning shapes and intermediate players who want quick confirmation while exploring more advanced harmony.

Chordzy builds this directly into the browser. Plug in your MIDI keyboard, open the web app from the banner above, and every chord you play is identified in real time. You can move through progressions, test voicings, play along with sheet music, and the chord name appears right away without slowing you down.

Using Your Midi Keyboad In The Browser

There is no complicated setup. Connect your MIDI keyboard, open the web app, and start playing. The chord display updates as quickly as you move your hands.

To get the most out of it:

  • Hold each chord briefly so you can notice the name and the staff notation

  • Try the same chord in different inversions to see how the voicing changes the shape but not the chord identity

  • Shift the same hand shape up or down the keyboard to see how it becomes a new chord in a new key

This helps you build muscle memory and recognize patterns instead of isolated notes.

How A Chord Finder Helps Learning

You spend more time improving and less time checking reference charts.

Beginners benefit because they learn correct shapes right away. If you hit one wrong note, the chord finder does not hide it. You understand immediately what needs to change.

Intermediate players benefit because they can move beyond basic triads and start exploring extended chords, altered chords, and more adventurous voicings. You do not have to stop and analyze each chord by hand. You can keep playing and keep learning at the speed of your curiosity.

The tool supports whatever level you are at without talking down to you.

Train Your Ear With Instant Feedback

Ear training becomes more effective when you can confirm your guesses in the moment. Play a chord, listen to it first, then check the label. Was it major or minor? Was it a dominant seventh? If you missed, correct it and listen again. This tight feedback loop builds reliable listening skills very quickly.

Try running through common progressions such as I, IV, V in a few keys and watch how fast your ears begin recognizing them.

Use Chords To Play Real Music

Once you can name chords quickly, you can connect that knowledge to songs you want to play. You can test progressions, analyze sheet music, or explore new harmonies with confidence.

When you are ready to try this with real music, click on the image of the sheet music and let Chordzy display the chord names as you play through the piece. It gives you the harmonic context you need without disrupting your flow.


Chordzy’s chord finder keeps your practice efficient and focused. You play, the chord appears, and you immediately understand what is happening under your fingers. It removes the uncertainty that leads to stiff, robotic playing and helps you develop confident, musical control at the piano.
