Mixed In Key is a music software company founded in 2006 by Yakov Vorobyev, headquartered in Miami Beach, Florida. The company's flagship product, Mixed In Key, analyzes audio files to detect their musical key and BPM, enabling DJs to perform harmonic mixing using the Camelot Wheel system. The software also provides Energy Level ratings that indicate how danceable each track is. What began as Vorobyev's solution to automate the manual key-detection sessions he used to do with his father has grown into an industry-standard tool used by DJs including David Guetta, Armin van Buuren, Kaskade, Paul van Dyk, Pete Tong, and Above & Beyond.

Beyond its core key-detection software, Mixed In Key offers a broad suite of products for DJs and producers. Captain Plugins is a VST plugin bundle for music production that includes Captain Chords, Captain Melody, Captain Deep, Captain Play, and Captain Beat — tools for generating chord progressions, melodies, and basslines within a DAW. Other products include Platinum Notes (audio enhancement and mastering), Mashup (automated beatmatching and mashup creation), Pilot Plugins (melody and chord generation), Human Plugins (loop quantization), Satellite Plugins (multi-DAW collaboration), and DJ.Studio (a timeline-based DAW designed specifically for DJ mixing). The company also publishes "Beyond Beatmatching," an instructional book on harmonic mixing techniques.

Mixed In Key has 18 products cataloged on Equipboard, including DJ Software, Generator Plugins, and Utility Plugins. Their gear is featured by 30 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Pop, and Rock. Notable users include David Guetta, Hardwell, and Avicii.
