Jaikoz is a Java program used for editing and mass tagging music file tags. Jaikoz generates acoustic fingerprints (MusicIP's MusicDNS PUIDs) of your files and lookups the Puid and the existing metadata from the MusicBrainz service. Potential matches are scored according to an algorithm and if the highest score is greater than the user determined threshold the track is selected. This allows Jaikoz to automatically fix most of a users song collection and . Jaikoz uses a relatively unusual spreadsheet metaphor for both viewing and editing data, and allows editing of over fifty fields using this spreadsheet interface, the underlying jaudiotagger tag library is released under LGPL and is used by various Java applications
Jaikoz is commercially licensed software, written in Java 1.5 by Paul Taylor. A shareware version, in which changes can only be saved to 20 files during one use, is also available as a 30-day free trial. 10% of every sale is paid to Metabrainz to support Musicbrainz development.
