Overview
What is Suno?
Suno is an AI tool that creates complete, original songs from a written description. Making music normally takes instruments, recording equipment, and years of practice.Suno removes those requirements. You enter a prompt for a genre, mood, subject, or your own lyrics and it generates a full track with vocals, instrumentation, and production, usually in under a minute. You can also upload or record audio, rewrite lyrics, reorder sections, extend a track, or turn a song into a cover. Paid plans add stem separation for use in editing software, longer audio uploads, custom voice models, and commercial rights to the songs you make.
