What our research says

onlymusic.ai

onlymusic.ai is a text-to-song generator that also accepts your own lyrics, aimed at creators who need background music or a demo of their own songwriting without production skills. The free daily generation is a real way to try it, but the yearly-generation-count pricing takes some math to compare against competitors billed per credit.

Pros

accepts either a text description or your own lyrics as input
generates full arrangements with vocals, not just instrumentals
free tier allows daily generation with no signup required
four paid tiers scale generation volume from casual to studio use

Cons

pricing is denominated in generations per year, which takes conversion to compare against per-credit competitors
no company identity or country is disclosed on the site

Udio

Udio still has the best arrangement tools of the prompt-to-song generators, with extend, inpaint and remix controls that let you shape a track rather than reroll it. Since the Universal settlement, though, what you make stays on Udio: no downloads and personal use only, which turns it from a production tool into a listening and sharing app until the licensed 2026 service and its terms arrive.

Pros

Section-level control: extend, precede, inpaint, variation and remix rather than generate-and-pray
Settled with Universal and licensed with Warner, which lowers the legal risk of the output itself
Free tier with daily credits lets you evaluate before paying
Mobile apps alongside the web app, per the terms' app clauses

Cons

Output cannot be downloaded and is limited to personal, non-commercial use under the current terms
Pricing is invisible without JavaScript, so plan limits must be checked inside the app
The licensed platform promised for 2026 had no public terms or launch details on the site today
No API, and no stated country or address beyond the corporate name in the terms
