As content creators continue to produce more short-form videos for platforms like Reels and TikTok, finding royalty-free music to go with their content can be a challenge. Luckily, artificial intelligence is coming to the rescue, with a growing number of online music generators allowing anyone to create a fully customized tune within minutes. Here are five AI tools worth checking out to add a unique soundtrack to your next video project.
Suno is a multi-purpose web-based platform that allows users to generate instrumental tracks and songs with lyrics simply by describing the type of music they have in mind. Once you sign up with your email or existing account, Suno's AI system will kick in and create original songs customized to your needs. There is a free option, but it is limited to 50 songs per month. Subscriptions allow unlimited use.
For those who want an instant music solution without signing up, SongR offers a similarly easy process: browse a genre, enter keywords for the song's topic, and within seconds, a matching melody with AI-generated lyrics is created. Users can also write their own lyrics in SongR and pair them with a matching instrumental track.
Beatoven.ai offers a similar sign-up workflow to Suno, but with more possibilities for customizing your songs after they're created. Change the genre, instruments, and other parameters on the fly to create the perfect audio backdrop for any video project. You can also download the finished track to edit into a longer video.
If you're pressed for time, Riffusion will generate short 12-second music snippets for you – perfect for short social content. Enter your lyrics and let the AI create a melody to fit the words you provide. No registration is required to use this fast music creation tool.
MusicFX is a service that's easily accessible within your web browser, with no sign-in required. Enter some basic details about the topic and mood of your video, and watch as an instrumental piece is created in real time. Tracks here can be up to 70 seconds long, but MusicFX offers high-quality AI composition for quick video projects.
