Compeller review: AI concert visuals plus REACT live audio-reactive output for screens, LED walls and streams. Free plan; paid from $12/month.
Researched and fact-checked by Bartu Cavusoglu · Updated October 26, 2026
Compeller is an AI platform that generates concert visuals from music and connects them to REACT, a live performance system. The company describes the pair as a practical path from generated visual assets to a real-time show pipeline for venues, artists and production teams.
REACT drives synchronized output from audio, cameras, lighting, MIDI and stream workflows. The pricing page says the SaaS platform and the REACT desktop app are offered free of charge for live performance, and that customers pay mainly for content generation, though the free tiers carry limited REACT access.
Compeller describes a six-step generation process. It analyzes the audio, plans scenes to match the flow and emotion of the music, generates the scenes, adds motion and cinematic direction, produces video, and renders multiple versions so the user can pick favorites.
On the homepage, the workflow is four steps: upload music or connect a live source, choose a visual style or describe the stage world, tune color, motion, timing and controls, then perform live by connecting screens, projectors or stream output and running the show from a control surface.
The core feature is track-to-visual generation, with controls over visual direction, color, motion, camera blend and performance behavior. A video editor is included on the free tiers, and renders produce several versions of each visual.
REACT adds the live layer. Its patent-pending engine ties visuals to tempo, frequency, dynamics and harmonic motion, and output can be routed to projectors, LED walls, monitors and livestream systems. The Pro plan adds API access, and Enterprise adds custom integrations, an SLA and white-label options.

REACT is Compeller's live performance platform. It uses a patent-pending real-time audio-driven math engine to keep visuals tied to tempo, frequency, dynamics and harmonic motion, and it routes output to screens, projectors and streams.
The site names Kick, Twitch and OBS for streaming, and MIDI and DMX for show control. REACT also works with cameras and lighting. The Pro plan adds API access and Enterprise adds custom integrations.
Output can be routed to projectors, LED walls, monitors and livestream systems. The site describes the setup as designed for real venues.
Inference minutes measure the compute time used to generate visuals, not the length of the song. Each plan includes a set number of them and charges a per-minute rate beyond that.
It suits musicians, DJs, venues, event organizers and production teams that want music-driven visuals and a live show pipeline. Larger deployments can book a custom REACT pilot or venue demo.
