Identify Songs from Video Links — Free Online Song Finder

SongByLink is a web-based song identification tool that extracts the audio track from a public video link and matches it against a database of over 70 million songs. Paste a link from TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, Facebook, or X, and within 10–20 seconds you'll get the song title, artist, album art, and direct listening links for Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Deezer. It works entirely in your browser on any device, with no app download or installation required.

What is SongByLink?

SongByLink is a free online song identifier that analyzes the audio stream of a video link rather than using microphone recording. It accepts public links from TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, and X (Twitter), including short links like vm.tiktok.com and youtu.be. The service returns the song title, artist, cover art, and streaming links, all within your browser.
