You don't need to spend money to make great AI music. Every major platform offers a free tier, and some are surprisingly generous. Here are the 5 best free AI music generators you can start using right now.
Suno's free tier is the most generous in the industry. You get around 50 credits per day — enough to generate roughly 10 full songs. The quality is excellent even on the free plan, and there's no watermark on the output.
Udio offers a limited number of free generations per month. What you get is top-tier audio fidelity — arguably the best-sounding AI music available. Great for anyone who prioritizes production quality over quantity.
ElevenLabs gives you access to the most realistic AI voices on the planet. The free tier lets you experiment with their music and voice generation tools. If your track needs standout vocals, this is where to start.
Soundraw takes a different approach — instead of generating from a text prompt, you customize music by adjusting mood, genre, tempo, and instruments using sliders. It's great for background music and content creation. The free tier lets you create and preview unlimited tracks, but you need a paid plan to download.
From Stability AI (the company behind Stable Diffusion). Stable Audio generates instrumental tracks and sound effects from text prompts. The free tier gives you a limited number of generations per month. Best for ambient, electronic, and cinematic instrumentals.
