A song from a description
You write the style, the mood, and the subject in one or two sentences. Suno writes the lyrics, composes the music, and sings it. Each request gives two songs.
Suno makes complete songs from a simple description: the music, the lyrics, and the voice. You write what you want to hear, and you get two versions to listen to. No musical knowledge is needed. Note: for professional use, you need a paid plan.
Suno has a free plan. The recommended plan to start with: Free, $0. Prices checked on October 4, 2026 on the vendor’s official page.
Who it’s for: people who need music for a video, an internal event, or a presentation, with no budget and no musician.
You write the style, the mood, and the subject in one or two sentences. Suno writes the lyrics, composes the music, and sings it. Each request gives two songs.
In “Custom” mode, you paste your lyrics, describe the music style, and give a title. In “Advanced Options,” “Vocal Gender” lets you choose a male or female voice, and “Exclude” lets you leave out an instrument.
You record or upload a sound, and Suno turns it into a complete song. On a phone, you can also start from a photo or a video and get music from it.
