CategoryAI Music Generation

PricingFree tier available with limited credits; paid plans start at $10/month.

Models and pricing

Free Plan$0/month — approximately 10 songs per month (about 40 credits)

Casual experimentation and trying out the tool

Decent for kicking the tires but you will hit the credit wall fast. Songs generated on the free plan are not licensed for commercial use, which matters if you plan to publish anything.

Standard Plan$10/month — approximately 600 credits (roughly 150 songs)

Regular hobbyists and content creators who need a steady supply of tracks

This is the sweet spot for most individual users. You get commercial licensing rights and enough credits to iterate and experiment without constantly running dry. Pick this if you are making YouTube videos, podcasts, or social content.

Pro Plan$30/month — approximately 1,800 credits (roughly 450 songs)

Power users, small studios, and creators who generate music daily

Worth it only if you are burning through the Standard plan credits regularly. Same commercial license as Standard but triple the volume. Overkill for casual users but reasonable for someone building a music-heavy product or channel.

Which model should you use?

Start on the Standard plan at $10/month — it gives you commercial rights and enough credits to actually get useful work done; only upgrade to Pro if you find yourself consistently running out of credits.
