ElevenLabs launched ElevenMusic on April 1, 2026, a standalone iOS app that generates full songs from text prompts. The free tier gives you 7 songs per day, which is more than Suno or Udio offer without paying. A Pro subscription at $9.99/month bumps that to 500 tracks. This is ElevenLabs making its play in music generation after spending two years building out voice synthesis, sound effects, and speech-to-text. It now competes directly with Suno, Udio, and Google’s Lyria 3.

What Is ElevenMusic?

ElevenMusic is an iOS app that turns text descriptions into complete songs. You type what you want (genre, mood, tempo, theme), and the app generates a full track. Vocals are optional.

The app sat on the App Store for a few weeks before going live. ElevenLabs is already hiring a consumer marketing lead for the music vertical, which tells you they’re serious about this.

How It Works

The workflow is simple:

Type a description of the song you want (genre, mood, lyrics, style)
Adjust optional parameters: song length, lyrics on/off, writing style
Generate and listen within seconds
Remix, save, or share the result

Vocals can be generated in multiple languages including English, Spanish, German, and Japanese. Users can specify song structure (intro, verse, chorus, bridge, outro) and fine-tune the model with custom audio for more personalized output.

Key Features

Text-to-Music Generation

Create complete songs across any genre from natural language prompts with optional vocals

Discovery & Remixing

Live stations, daily mixes, trending charts, and the ability to remix other users' tracks

Multilingual Vocals

Generate lyrics in English, Spanish, German, Japanese, and more languages

Video-to-Music API

New developer endpoint generates background music directly from uploaded video files

Beyond generation, ElevenMusic mirrors features from consumer music apps like Spotify. The app includes:

Live stations with curated AI-generated music streams
Daily mixes organized by mood: Focus, Energy, Relax, Late Night, Cosmic, Chill
Top charts and trending sections for discovering popular AI tracks
Remix capability where users can modify any shared song using text prompts

ElevenMusic Pricing

ElevenMusic app pricing (separate from ElevenLabs platform subscriptions)

Plan	Price	Generations	Storage	Features
Free	$0	7 songs/day	Limited	Basic styles and moods
Pro (Monthly)	$9.99/mo	500 tracks/mo	500+ GB	All styles, all moods
Pro (Annual)	$95.90/yr	500 tracks/mo	500+ GB	All styles, all moods

Separate From ElevenLabs Platform Pricing

ElevenMusic’s Pro tier ($9.99/mo) is a standalone app subscription, separate from ElevenLabs’ main platform plans that start at $5/mo for voice and audio features. The platform’s music generation capabilities are also accessible through the web at elevenlabs.io/music.

What Developers Get: Video-to-Music API

Alongside the consumer app, ElevenLabs also released a new POST /v1/music/video-to-music API endpoint on the same day. This endpoint accepts one or more video files and generates matching background music automatically.

Developers can pass an optional text description (up to 1,000 characters) and up to 10 style tags (like “upbeat” or “cinematic”) to influence the generated track. Videos uploaded in sequence are combined before the music is generated.

For video editing tools and content automation pipelines, this means soundtracks can be generated programmatically instead of picked from a library.

How ElevenMusic Compares to Competitors

ElevenMusic is the newcomer. Here’s how the free tiers compare:

AI music generator comparison as of April 2026

Platform	Free Tier	Paid From	Key Differentiator
ElevenMusic	7 songs/day	$9.99/mo	Integrated with ElevenLabs voice/audio ecosystem
Suno	Limited daily credits	$10/mo	Largest user base, custom model training (v5.5)
Google Lyria 3	Free (via Gemini)	Included with Gemini	No login required, royalty-free
Udio	Limited generations	$10/mo	Strong vocal quality and mixing

ElevenLabs’ edge here is bundling. If you already use their platform for voice cloning or text-to-speech, adding music generation doesn’t require signing up for another service. Their creative suite already covers voice-overs, translation, sound effects, and music features launched earlier this year, so a dedicated music app fills the last obvious gap.

What This Means

For Content Creators

YouTubers and podcasters who currently pay for stock music licenses or spend hours browsing royalty-free libraries get an alternative. Seven free songs per day is enough for most solo creators to test whether AI-generated music works for their content.

For the AI Music Market

ElevenLabs raised $500 million at an $11 billion valuation in February 2026. That kind of capital entering the music generation space puts pressure on Suno and Udio, which have had the market mostly to themselves. ElevenLabs also has an existing user base across voice synthesis, Scribe (speech-to-text), and ElevenAgents (conversational AI) that it can push music to.

For Developers

The video-to-music API is the more interesting addition for technical users. Video editing tools and social media schedulers can now generate matching soundtracks automatically. Pair this with ElevenLabs’ voice and sound effects APIs and you can build a full audio production pipeline through one provider.
