Here is one way which I would like to use this or something with similar
capabilities.

I can't sing in tune it seems.
I don't play an instrument.
I write lyrics.
I get what I think are tunes to go along with the lyrics in my head.
I have a hard time communicating the music in my head with others.
I also write lyrics for existing music and have an issue communicating the
melody of the lyric to people.

For existing music, it would be nice if I could enter the key that the music
is in, sing my lyric and have it correct my pitch to something in the key of
the song. Then I could replay and see if I approve or try again.

For non-existing music, it would be nice if I could run an iteration. Let it
correct to actual notes. (They tell me I sing flat a lot so I guess sharpen
things up.) Then from the notes, guess at the key of the song and then let me
redo the run based in this key and so on as per above.

Now, keep in mind that I am speaking from vast ignorance here so...
