Udio
Udio generates songs from text descriptions and offers tools to edit music, lyrics and voices, extend uploaded audio and publish tracks to a community.
About this tool
Udio is an AI music service: describe a song in words, from the genre and mood to the occasion, and it generates a full track with vocals. It is used both by casual users making personal songs and by musicians who treat generated material as a starting point in their production process.
Beyond generation, paid plans unlock editing tools. You can control voices, change music and lyrics, generate from uploaded audio, use an existing song as a style reference and add custom cover art. Finished tracks can be published on Udio, where users follow artists and share creations. Usage is measured in credits, with daily and monthly limits on the free plan.

Before you choose
