Suno is an AI music generator that creates complete songs with vocals, lyrics and instruments from a short text prompt. You can also edit tracks in Suno Studio. The free plan gives 50 credits a day (about 10 songs), and paid plans start at $8 a month billed yearly ($10 monthly).
What is Suno?
Suno is a popular AI music app. You describe a song, such as “a country song about being late”, and Suno writes lyrics and produces a full track with singing and instruments in seconds. You can also add your own lyrics or choose a style.
Suno Studio adds pro editing tools for stems, sections and arrangements. Free songs are for personal use only. Paid plans give more credits and full commercial rights to songs you make while subscribed.
