Best AI Music Generator (2026): 7 Picks and Their Licenses

Suno's help center says the free tier refills 50 credits a day, which covers about 10 songs, and Premier includes 10,000 credits a month. Pro and Premier subscribers receive monthly download allowances, and Suno's download page lists 20 download credits a month on Pro and 60 on Premier.

Rights are the detail to read. Suno's rights page says songs downloaded while subscribed carry commercial use rights, while free-plan songs are for personal, non-commercial use, and a separate help article says subscribing does not retroactively cover earlier free songs. Suno settled with Warner Music Group in November 2025 and has since launched models built with Warner, BMG and Believe, but it has not said which catalogues trained them, according to press coverage.

Skip it if you need to publish tracks commercially and cannot subscribe first, or if you need training-data transparency for a client.

ElevenLabs describes Eleven Music as trained on licensed data and built for commercial use, and says it worked with artists, labels and publishers. These are company claims, and we found no independent audit of the training data.

The music terms set limits by plan. On self-serve plans use is allowed online and offline except for film, TV and Studio Games, which require Enterprise. The terms also bar using output to build a music library. Because the ElevenCreative page and the music terms differ on advertising, read the current terms before an ad campaign. Our [ElevenLabs review](/software/elevenlabs-review/) covers the wider platform.

Skip it if you need film, TV or game soundtrack rights without an Enterprise agreement.

Soundraw's licence page says the Creator licence covers personal and commercial use in your projects but not standalone tracks for sale on Spotify or Apple Music. Artist plans add distribution to streaming services, with Artist Starter at 10 monthly MP3 downloads, Artist Pro at 20 with WAV and stems, and Artist Unlimited uncapped, according to Soundraw.

Older Soundraw blog posts describe a different royalty arrangement for Artist plans than the current pricing page, which now says all Artist tiers include a perpetual commercial licence and full royalty ownership. Read the licence page as it stands today before relying on either.

Skip it if you want vocals, or if you want one-click full songs more than adjustable instrumentals.

Stability AI's platform page says new API accounts get 25 free credits, with one credit worth one cent, and lists Stable Audio 3.0 at 8 credits per generation of up to six minutes. Stability's comparison page lists the hosted app from 12 dollars a month, but we did not confirm current app plans from the pricing page, so check it.

Under the Community License, organizations below 1 million dollars in annual revenue can use outputs commercially at no cost, while larger organizations need an Enterprise licence with indemnification, according to Stability's own comparison page, which should be read with its vendor bias in mind.

Skip it if you want finished songs with vocals from a single sentence.

Mubert's pricing page lists Creator for non-commercial content, Pro for commercial use and Business for apps and agency work, with 500 tracks a month on Creator and Pro and 1,000 on Business, up to 25 minutes each. Mubert's FAQ says indie game use works on Pro, while larger developers need Business.

Mubert's own documents disagree in places. The subscription agreement describes Creator as allowing monetization of derivative works, while the pricing page calls it non-commercial. Treat Pro as the safe minimum, and confirm sublicensing terms before building a product on the API.

Skip it if you plan to release tracks on streaming services or want vocals.

AIVA's licence tiers decide everything. Third-party reviews dated June 2026 report that the free plan is non-commercial, Standard allows monetization on social platforms while AIVA keeps copyright, and Pro, listed at 33 euros a month billed annually, gives full ownership with 300 downloads a month and WAV export. We could not open AIVA's current pricing page, so treat those figures as reported, not confirmed.

AIVA's end-user licence agreement lists the same three outcomes: a non-commercial licence, a limited commercial licence or full copyright, depending on plan.

Skip it if you want vocals or one-click finished songs, or if you cannot afford the Pro tier that ownership requires.

Udio's pricing page lists a free plan with 10 credits a day and 100 a month, plus Standard with 2,400 credits a month and Pro with 6,000. Udio's help center says it entered a partnership with Universal Music Group on 29 October 2025 and that downloads of audio, video and stems are disabled as a transition while new products are prepared.

Because downloads are off, we cannot recommend Udio for any project that needs a file. Check its help center for the current status before paying for anything.
