Suno Pricing 2026: Every Plan, Compared
Suno is free for 50 credits a day, $10/month for Pro and $30/month for Premier. Credits are the whole story: 10 credits per song generation, and the free tier deliberately does not give you commercial ownership of what you make.
How much does Suno cost?
Suno Pro costs $10/month ($8/month billed annually) and includes 2,500 credits — about 250 song generations — plus commercial-use rights to everything you create. Premier is $30/month for 10,000 credits (~1,000 songs). The free plan gives 50 credits a day, roughly five songs, but the tracks stay non-commercial and your generations are public.

Is there a free Suno plan?
Yes — 50 credits refresh daily, which is about five song generations a day, or 150 a month if you log in every day. That is a surprisingly generous allowance for evaluation and it uses the same models as the paid tiers. The catch is ownership: free-tier songs are licensed for personal, non-commercial use only, and your generations are visible on your public profile. You cannot put a free-tier Suno track behind a monetised video, in an ad, or on Spotify.
How Suno credits translate into songs
Suno charges 10 credits per generation, and every generation returns two variations of the track. That makes the arithmetic simple but the real-world cost less so, because getting a song you actually want almost never takes one generation — extending, remastering and re-rolling all cost credits too.
Is annual Suno billing worth it?
Annual is 20% off — Pro at $96/year instead of $120, Premier at $288 instead of $360. At $10/month the absolute saving is small enough that it should not drive the decision. The stronger argument for annual is that AI music licensing is an actively contested area, and locking a rate now insulates you from mid-year repricing. The argument against: if you are producing music for a single project, buy one month of Pro, generate everything, and cancel — your commercial rights to already-generated tracks survive the cancellation.
Costs the Suno pricing page doesn't lead with
Free-tier songs are not yours to monetise
The free plan grants a personal-use licence only. Putting a free-tier track on a monetised YouTube video, in a client's ad, or on a streaming platform requires a paid plan — and the rights attach to when the song was generated, not when you upgraded.
Re-rolls are the real credit sink
The advertised song counts assume one generation per song. In practice you will re-roll prompts, extend sections and remaster. Plan on three to six generations for a track you would actually publish.
Free generations are public
On the free tier your creations appear on your public profile and in the community feed. Private generation starts at Pro — which matters if you are scoring a client's unreleased campaign.
Distribution platforms may still reject AI tracks
Suno granting you commercial rights does not guarantee Spotify, YouTube Content ID or a sync library will accept the track. Check the destination platform's AI-content policy before you build a release plan around it.
Which Suno plan should you buy?
Cheaper alternatives to Suno
If the Suno tier ladder is more than your workload justifies, these cost less for the same core job.
Udio
Free tier · from $10/moThe closest direct competitor with a comparable free allowance and near-identical entry pricing. Many producers rate Udio higher on vocal clarity and Suno higher on full-arrangement coherence — worth generating the same prompt on both before committing.
Beatoven
Free tier · from $6/moCheaper and purpose-built for royalty-free background scoring rather than songs with vocals. If you only need beds under video, you are paying Suno for vocal generation you never use.
Boomy
Free · from $9.99/moLower ceiling on output quality, but it bundles distribution to streaming platforms into the subscription, which Suno does not. The cheaper path if releasing to Spotify is the actual goal.
AIVA
Free · from €11/moInstrumental and orchestral focus with editable MIDI export — the only option here that hands you stems you can rearrange in a DAW. Better value if you are scoring rather than generating finished songs.
Suno pricing — frequently asked questions
How much does Suno cost per month?
Suno Pro is $10/month for 2,500 credits and Premier is $30/month for 10,000 credits. Annual billing is 20% off, making Pro $8/month ($96/year) and Premier $24/month ($288/year). The free plan gives 50 credits a day at no cost.
How many songs can you make with Suno credits?
Each generation costs 10 credits and returns two variations, so Pro's 2,500 credits buys about 250 generations. Realistically a publishable track takes three to six generations once you factor in re-rolls and extensions, so budget 40–80 finished songs a month on Pro.
Can I use Suno songs commercially on the free plan?
No. Free-tier tracks carry a personal, non-commercial licence. Monetised video, advertising, client work and streaming releases all require a Pro or Premier subscription, and the rights attach to the plan you were on when the song was generated.
Do I keep the rights to Suno songs after I cancel?
Yes. Commercial rights to songs generated while you were on a paid plan survive cancellation — you do not lose the licence to tracks you already made. Anything generated after you drop back to free reverts to the non-commercial licence.
Do Suno credits roll over?
Free credits refresh daily and expire daily — unused ones do not accumulate. Paid monthly credits largely reset at the end of the billing cycle too, so size your plan to a typical month rather than your busiest one.
Is Suno or Udio cheaper?
They are effectively tied at the entry tier — both start around $10/month with a free allowance. The decision should come down to output, not price: generate the same prompt on each and compare vocal clarity and arrangement coherence before you subscribe.
