I built something similar for personal use. It's a Mac app that uses AppleScript to poll Spotify for the track that is currently playing. It then looks for chords on Ultimate Guitar through a small NodeJS API that uses Puppeteer to scrape the site. I'll usually just put my guitar playlist on shuffle and have this app open alongside it.
We worked with Primephonic on the development of the platform, and this was one of the topics that got a lot of attention. In this talk about the app architecture [1] a former team mate touches upon the datamodel briefly.
We're an agency of close to 70 engineers building consumer facing software for customers worldwide. Recent projects include a hi-res image viewer for ESA [1], an interactive documentary of Hieronymus Bosch' famous Garden of Earthly Delights [2], and the cloud infrastructure that drives Philips' Hue platform.
We're looking for people that love building software for humans to use.

Coincidentally, I just released a Sonos CLI NPM package over easter [1] that builds on some work done by others [2]. It is targeted primarily at circumventing the Spotify search functionality in the Sonos app, that more often than not times out and fails to give results. I just started using it at the office for quick playback control, and it takes away a lot of the frustration I have with the app.
