The best AI music generator for songs you can actually download and release, now on partly licensed models. Watch the monthly download caps.
What it is
Suno generates complete songs with vocals and lyrics from a prompt. Its v6 models (September 2026) were developed with Warner Music Group, BMG and Believe and let you edit sections with text. The free plan uses v6-mini and cannot download. Pro ($10 a month, $8 yearly) adds v6, commercial use and 20 downloads a month; Premier ($30, $24 yearly) adds 60 downloads and Suno Studio. Universal and Sony lawsuits are still open. Checked November 2026.
