ElevenLabs dropped ElevenMusic on April 1, an iOS app that turns text prompts into full songs — lyrics, vocals, the works. 7 generations a day free, $9.99/month for Pro. Story’s in the legal layer.
The licensing angle nobody else has
Suno and Udio are buried in copyright lawsuits. ElevenLabs went the other way: licensed training data from Merlin Network and Kobalt Music Group. Artists opt in, share revenue, keep misuse protections. Output is cleared for film, TV, ads, games, podcasts — competitors can’t match this without rebuilding from scratch.
This matters more than song quality. Every brand using AI music is one DMCA away from a takedown. ElevenMusic is the first generator a marketing team can plug in without lawyer panic.
The API for developers
Eleven Music ships as an API too — pitched as the first music API trained on licensed data and commercial-ready. Slot it into a video tool, a game engine, a podcast pipeline. Output comes with clearance attached, no separate sync license dance.
ElevenLabs raised $500M at an $11B valuation in February. This launch is why that wasn’t crazy.
