Use tool ↗About Mubert
Mubert generates instrumental music from a text prompt or a chosen mood and genre, then hands back a downloadable track with a licence certificate attached to your plan tier. It splits into Render for creators who need background music for video and podcasts, and a developer API for putting generated audio inside games, apps and ad tooling. Free-tier output is limited to non-commercial use.

Pros & cons of Mubert
Best treated as a licensing-safe background music tap for video and app builders, not as a songwriting tool. If you want vocals or a track that stands on its own, this is the wrong product.
Pros
- Every download carries a licence certificate tied to your plan, which is the main reason to pay
- A real, documented developer API rather than a bolt-on
- Cheapest commercial tier sits well below most AI music rivals
Cons
- Output is loop-driven instrumental; arrangements get repetitive on longer cuts
- No vocals, and control over structure is coarse compared with prompt-to-song rivals
- API pricing is not published; you have to talk to sales
Best for
- YouTube and podcast beds where the music must not trigger a claim
- Game and app developers who need generated audio via API
- Agencies producing lots of short ad cuts on a fixed budget
Not for
- Releasing tracks on Spotify or other streaming services
- Vocal-led or structured songwriting
- Anyone needing stems or DAW-level editing control
Watch out: Tracks are explicitly not licensed for Content ID, standalone release on streaming platforms, or resale on stock music sites, so a paid plan does not make the music yours to publish as a release.
