Looks very nice! Do you have some sort of upload API, so music creation software could potentially upload directly, without going through a GUI? (I realize this may be an exotic request, so I understand if this is not of interest for you to implement).
Do you see a use case for this?

Theres many tools out there that will handle the follow up marketing part for you. Most will offer powerful workflow tools based on conditions etc.
I do utilise such tools but I 100% advocate for being a human being and just speaking to people. Customers really appreciate it. I guess its not for everyone, and it's not infinitely scaleable but it is highly valuable in the early stages.
If you feel that a real human person is behind all that, and not a faceless company, you're also much more likely to share feedback. (Nobody would share improvement ideas for Windows with Microsoft, since you can be sure that those go straigth to /dev/null (or, more appropriately, the recycle bin).)

If you worked on this while employed without getting a waiver their lawyers might beg to differ in the UK pretty much every contract I’ve seen has “we own all your discoveries unless stated otherwise” clause in it.
That clause is pretty much universal. Defending / enforcing it is whole different story.
"In the course of your employment" or similar words used to be a more reasonable standard that was widely considered fair to both sides for salaried employees. In other words, things you do on company time, using company resources and/or in the company's line of business go to the company, but they have no claim beyond that. I haven't spoken to a lawyer about this recently, so if the issue might affect you, please check whether this is still correct and don't just rely on my comment here.

It was $50, it was $7. I've done a bunch of experimentation of price points over the years and the setup now converts by far the best. Started seeing conversions shoot up instantly upon deploying the latest pricing. Prior to this setup it was $10, $25 and $50. No-one took out pro. When I changed to $10, $20 and $30 it all changed. Now the majority of my paying customers are on the $20 and $30 plans.
Note that such things are not written in stone and it may be worth experimenting again a while later. You may be drawing in different customers with different sized wallets and attitudes.
I like following along with indie developers. Do you blog anywhere or post about your progress?
For reference, here are some indie developers whose regular progress updates I enjoy:
* Cory Zue, creator of SaaS Pegasus and PlaceCardMe: https://www.coryzue.com/writing/
* Jen, creator of Lunch Money: https://lunchbag.ca/
* Allison Seboldt, creator of Fantasy Congress: https://allisonseboldt.com/
Congrats! I had no idea what this product was or why it was useful until I read the Why I Built This page, but then again I'm not your target customer.

I think this is the essence of the much-bandied "do things that don't scale" advice. Scaling inherently involves abstraction and generalisation, engaging with individual human beings can generate much clearer insights until it becomes impractical (scale being a forced issue).
Cool project, I like that you've clearly stated on the front page exactly what it's for. Just FYI the bottom of your Blog pages contains a button with a strange label CANVAS::BLOG.BUTTON.NEXT Also the link to your Privacy Policy has (almost) the same foreground and background color. https://i.imgur.com/HcU0wOy.png
Ooops... thanks so much I will address these issues tonight.
PS I think your Pro tier is too cheap ;) anyone that wants to remove your branding (and perhaps whitelabel the product as their own?) is a big enough outfit to pay more than what you're asking.
