Best music AI tools and models

Published Updated

Music generators write and perform whole songs, vocals included, from a prompt or lyrics. This list gathers the ones GenGrades has written up, each page with its prices, limits and sourced facts.

The ranking

Every tool and model we have graded for music, best total first.

  1. Mureka

    Tool

    Mureka is the AI song generator of Kunlun Tech (昆仑万维). Its V9.5 model, out since August 2026, ranks third in Artificial Analysis's blind vocal test behind two Suno models, and its paid plans promise unlimited downloads with commercial rights while Suno caps downloads and Udio has switched them off.

    Best for:
    Creators who need downloadable songs with commercial rights now that Suno caps downloads and Udio blocks them; Songwriters and video makers working in Chinese as well as English
    Biggest weakness:
    Songs made on the free plan belong to Mureka and cannot be downloaded.

    Not totalled

  2. Suno

    Tool

    Suno is an AI song generator that capped downloads on September 3, 2026 and rebuilt its models as v6 on licensed music on September 9. TechCrunch reported in July 2026 that a November 2025 breach exposed about 55.3 million user records, and Universal and Sony sued again over v6 on September 18, 2026.

    Best for:
    Hobbyists who write songs for fun and are happy to keep them inside Suno; Video creators who need a few tracks a month and can live with 20 or 60 downloads
    Biggest weakness:
    Downloads are capped, and free accounts no longer get monthly downloads.

  3. Udio

    Tool

    Udio is an AI song generator from Uncharted Labs that switched off downloads on October 29, 2025, when it settled with Universal Music Group. Songs now stay on Udio, which owns them, behind encrypted streams, while Udio prepares a licensed fan-remix app reported as Starstruck and still faces suits from Sony.

    Best for:
    Hobbyists who enjoy making AI songs and sharing links with friends; Existing subscribers with large libraries inside Udio
    Biggest weakness:
    You cannot download or publish what you make.
