After initially testing its AI-powered \u201cPrompted Playlist\u201d feature in New Zealand<\/a> and recently launching in the U.S. and Canada<\/a>, Spotify announced<\/a> on Monday that it\u2019s rolling out the tool to Premium subscribers in the U.K., Ireland, Australia, and Sweden.<\/p>\n The Prompted Playlist feature allows users to create custom playlists by simply describing what they want to listen to in their own words. Instead of searching for individual songs or artists, users can describe the vibe, scenario, or inspiration they want, and Spotify will take care of the rest.<\/p>\n To access the feature, users tap \u201cCreate\u201d and then select \u201cPrompted Playlist,\u201d then enter any prompt in English. The feature is designed to interpret themes including moods, aesthetics, and even memories. Prompts can be as broad or specific as the user wants, referencing musical eras, genres, activities, lyrics, instruments, or even requesting a playlist inspired by a TV show, movie, or personal milestone.\u00a0Users can also specify whether they want the playlist to include mostly new music or just music from their library in the prompt. <\/p>\n Once a prompt is submitted, Spotify\u2019s AI generates a customized playlist tailored to the request. The system draws on the user\u2019s listening history and incorporates current music and cultural trends. Plus, each song comes with a short explanation that offers insight into why it was chosen for that particular playlist.<\/p>\n Users can refine their playlists by adjusting their prompts or starting over. For those whose musical tastes constantly evolve, playlists can be scheduled to automatically refresh on a daily or weekly basis.<\/p>\n Because this is still in beta, Spotify noted that there might be changes as the company gets feedback, and that there are currently usage limits in place. Some users have reported<\/a> hitting limits after roughly 20 or 30 prompts.<\/p>\n Spotify has recently expanded AI features throughout its platform, including\u00a0Page Match<\/a>, which lets users scan a physical book page to jump to the corresponding spot in the audiobook,\u00a0and\u00a0About the Song<\/a>. The platform also updated its song lyrics feature<\/a> to provide global translations and offline access.\u00a0Last week, SeatGeek partnered with Spotify<\/a> to help listeners easily find ticket links for concerts on an artist\u2019s page or upcoming tour dates within the app.\u00a0<\/p>\n Techcrunch event<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBoston, MA<\/span> Internally, the company has implemented AI throughout its workflows, with co-CEO Gustav S\u00f6derstr\u00f6m saying earlier this month that Spotify\u2019s best developers haven\u2019t written a line of code<\/a> since December, thanks to AI. <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Meet-My-New-Favourite-Artist.jpg?w=680\")
