Suno

Suno is an AI music generation platform that turns a short text prompt, a set of lyrics, or an uploaded audio clip into a complete original song, vocals, instrumentation, and production included, in under a minute. Founded in 2022 by former Kensho engineers Mikey Shulman, Georg Kucsko, Martin Camacho, and Keenan Freyberg, Suno has grown into one of the most widely used consumer AI music tools, with more than 100 million people having made a song on the platform and a top 10 ranking on both the iOS and Android music charts.

Creators work in Simple mode for quick one-line prompts or Custom mode for full control over lyrics, genre, vocal gender, and style sliders, then refine results by extending, remixing, or regenerating sections. Suno Studio, the platform's browser-based digital audio workstation, adds MIDI input, a multitrack timeline, audio effects, and stem separation for creators who want to take a generated track further, while every song produced carries embedded C2PA Content Credentials that mark it as AI-generated.

Suno is built for content creators, podcasters, and songwriters who need a finished track fast rather than a full production pipeline, and for hobbyists exploring music-making with zero instrumental training. Musicians and audio professionals who need granular mixing control tend to use Suno Studio's paid tiers alongside, or instead of, a traditional DAW.

Suno'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. The Premier plan is $24/month billed annually and adds 10,000 monthly credits (up to 2,000 songs), full access to Suno Studio with MIDI and multitrack editing, 60 downloads per month, three stem separation types, and Persona Voices.

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.
