How to choose music generation tools
Start with what you need to make. Suno and Udio turn text prompts into songs, and Suno's listing specifically mentions vocals and lyrics. AIVA is built around original tracks in 250+ styles, with editing and MIDI export for further work on a piece. Kits AI focuses on singing voices, voice cloning and vocal tools for producers, while Soundraw offers royalty-free tracks for creators and music artists.
Next, check pricing. Suno, Udio, Kits AI and AIVA are freemium, so you can start without paying, while Soundraw is paid only. Suno's paid plans start at $8/mo and Kits AI's at $10/mo.
Platform matters if you don't want to work in a browser. Suno is on web, iOS and Android, and Udio is on web and iOS. AIVA is web only.
Finally, if you want to build music generation into your own product or workflow, look for API access. Of these five, only Kits AI and Soundraw list an API.
