Best AI music generators
for songs and background tracks in 2026
Eight tools that turn a written prompt into a track, side by side: what each one makes, what it costs to start and what you get free. Facts are sourced from each vendor's own page, with the date we read it.
For creators who need a track for a Reel, an ad or a video
What to compare before you pick one
The same four questions apply to every tool on this page.
Vocals or background music?
Suno and Eleven Music list sung vocals, and Inflyu sings lyrics you paste. Mubert, Soundraw and Beatoven describe background music for videos, podcasts and apps. Read the first column before you write a prompt.
How long can a track be?
Inflyu makes 30 or 60 seconds, Udio lists songs up to 130 seconds, Stable Audio up to six minutes, and Mubert up to 25 minutes on paid plans. Pick the length your video needs.
Subscription or per track?
Suno, Mubert, Soundraw and ElevenLabs sell monthly plans. Inflyu sells credit packs that you spend per track, and a monthly plan is optional.
Can I use it commercially?
The rules differ by tool and by plan. Suno and Mubert list no commercial rights on their free plans, and Beatoven describes a non-exclusive licence. Read the licence on the vendor page before you publish a track.

Questions
What is an AI music generator?+
It turns a written description, and sometimes lyrics, into an audio track. Some tools make full songs with vocals, others make instrumental background music for videos, podcasts and apps.
Which AI music generator is best?+
It depends on whether you want a sung song or background music, how long the track must be and how you want to pay. Suno and Eleven Music list vocals, Mubert and Soundraw focus on background tracks, and Inflyu charges per short track. We make Inflyu, so check the linked vendor pages for the others.
Can I make AI music for free?+
Yes, on several of them. A new Inflyu account gets 20 free credits once, no card required, and running a job needs a verified email. Suno, Udio, Mubert and ElevenLabs list a free plan, with limits on credits, downloads or commercial use that the table above shows.
How much does a track cost with Inflyu?+
A 30-second track costs 2 credits ($0.21) and a 60-second track 4 credits ($0.42) at the Power pack rate. The exact price is shown on screen before anything runs.
Can AI music have lyrics and vocals?+
Yes. Suno and Eleven Music list sung vocals, and Inflyu sings lyrics you paste, up to 1,500 characters, when With vocals is on. Words and names can come out sounding different from what you expect, so listen before you use a track.
Do I need a subscription for Inflyu?+
No. Credit packs are one-time purchases that start at $2.49, and pack credits never expire. If you would rather refill each month, monthly plans exist too, and unused monthly credits do not roll over.
How current are the competitor prices on this page?+
Each competitor fact links to the vendor page it came from and shows the date it was read, most recently 1 Nov 2026. Plans and credits change often, so confirm on the vendor page before you pay. If a fact could not be confirmed on a vendor page, it is left out.
What does Inflyu not do well?+
Tracks are 30 or 60 seconds long and come as one MP3, so Inflyu suits a Reel, an ad or an intro and not a full-length song. A free account makes 1 audio file in total, so another track or a rewritten prompt needs a credit pack. Listen to every track before you use it.
