How Does It Work?
It’s super easy. You just type in what you want to listen to or how you’re feeling, and Maestro does the rest. You can even talk to it using speech-to-text. So, if you’re feeling left out because your friends are hanging without you, just say it, and Maestro will whip up a playlist based on that.
Where Can You Find It?
Maestro lives in the Amazon Music mobile app, so you can’t access it on the web or your TV. It’s all about the phone for now.
How Is It Different From Spotify’s AI?
Well, both Amazon Music Maestro and Spotify’s AI Playlist do the same thing: create playlists based on what you ask for. But Maestro is still in the US and only for Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers, while Spotify’s AI works for Premium users in the UK and Australia.

Conclusion
Amazon Music Maestro is like having a music-savvy friend who’s always ready with the perfect playlist. Just tell it what you want, and it’s on it. And while it’s still getting started, it’s already making waves among music lovers. So, if you’re in the US and itching to try it out, keep an eye out for Maestro in your Amazon Music app.
