AI-generated music vs stock music
Both can give you music fast. They're good at different things — here's an honest look at when each makes sense.
Stock libraries license existing tracks, often with clear commercial terms. AI generators like SongAI create a new song from your description. The right choice depends on whether you need personalization or a commercial licence.
At a glance
| SongAI | Typical stock library | |
|---|---|---|
| Personal details (names, stories) | Yes — lyrics written around them | No |
| Vocals in your language | 25 languages | Limited to what exists |
| Time to a track | About a minute per request | Search time varies |
| Commercial licence | Not offered yet | Usually available |
| Uniqueness | A new song each time | Same tracks used by others |
Choose AI music when…
- The song is a gift or about specific people.
- You want vocals with your own words.
- It's for personal videos, celebrations or listening.
Choose stock music when…
- You need a commercial licence for ads, client work or monetized channels.
- You need a cue sheet or specific broadcast clearances.
Our honest take
SongAI is built for personal songs. If your project is commercial, a licensed stock library is the right tool today.

No studio, no instruments, no music theory. Just say what you hear in your head.

Write a sentence about the song you want — a mood, a story, a dedication. Or paste your own lyrics.
Shape the sound
Pick a genre and mood, choose a male or female voice, the vocal language, or go fully instrumental.
Listen and keep
Get two different versions with cover art. Favorite them, build playlists and come back any time.
Questions
For personal songs it's usually cheaper per track, but for commercial projects you need a licence that SongAI doesn't offer yet.
