Suno is a web and mobile app that generates complete songs, including vocals, instruments and lyrics, from text prompts or user-supplied lyrics and style descriptions. Users can also work from their own audio, for example having the system add drums to a guitar riff, which Dr. Dre described using it for as a collaborator.
Suno is a subscription service with a free tier and paid plans, with generation and download allowances depending on plan. According to creator coverage (Matt Wolfe), Suno announced audio watermarking and fingerprinting and a monthly download cap starting September 3rd, reported as 20 songs per month on Pro and 60 on the higher plan. Exact current plan terms should be checked on Suno's site.
Suno is closed-source and offered only as a hosted service. Ongoing debate about passing off prompted songs as one's own work and about music-industry licensing relates to its use.

In a segment on Dr. Dre saying he uses AI to produce songs, the creator shares his view on AI music. He enjoys Suno as a collaborator, for example adding drums to his own guitar riffs, but dislikes passing off prompted songs as one's own.
Suno will add audio watermarking and fingerprinting and a download cap from September 3rd. The cap is 20 songs per month on Pro and 60 on the more expensive plan. Matt has mixed feelings but says Suno is still the best music generator.
