FreemiumFree plan: limited daily track generations, 0.5-minute previews, 1 download per day, non-commercial use only. Personal plan: around 8 USD per month billed annually (10 USD monthly), includes several hundred track creations, longer song lengths, several hundred downloads, stem and sample packs, studio FX renders, MP3/WAV export, and Distro Plus distribution. Pro plan: around 24 USD per month billed annually, with higher limits on track creations, song length, downloads, stem packs, FX renders, and stem splitter minutes. Both paid tiers include commercial licensing. Custom/API pricing is available for business integrations.
FreemiumSuno's Free plan costs $0 and renews 50 credits (about 10 songs) daily using the v4.5-all model, with no commercial use rights, no stem separation, and a shared generation queue. No credit card is required to start.
The Pro plan is $8/month billed annually (or a higher monthly rate) and includes 2,500 credits refreshing monthly (up to 500 songs), access to the newer v5.5 model, commercial use rights on new songs, 20 downloads per month, priority queue access, two stem separation types, and up to 30 minutes of audio upload.

Both paid plans save 20% when billed annually, and subscribers on either paid tier can purchase additional add-on credits if they exhaust their monthly allowance. Unused monthly credits do not roll over, though purchased top-up credits do not expire as long as the subscription stays active.
