Music · freemium

✓v5-generation vocals and mixes hold up in a mix without the obvious artifacts that gave away 2024-era AI music
✓Full song structures up to roughly eight minutes, not loops or 30-second clips
✓Suno Studio adds stem separation and multitrack editing, so output can enter a real DAW workflow instead of being take-it-or-leave-it
✓Personas keep a consistent voice and production style across an entire catalogue of tracks
✓Full commercial rights start at the $10/mo entry paid tier, cheaper than most commercially-cleared rivals

×Suno Studio, stems and the serious editing tools are locked to the $30/mo Premier tier, which is the tier most producers actually need
×Credits burn on every generation including the ones you throw away, so '500 songs a month' overstates usable output considerably
×Lyric writing is the weaker half of the product; the audio quality now outruns the words when you let it write them
×Label litigation and licensing terms are still in motion after the Warner settlement, so what you are allowed to generate and release could shift again

Music · freemium

✓Separation quality is still at the top of the field, with noticeably less bleed than free separators on dense mixes
✓Up to 10 discrete stems, including guitar, piano, synth and strings, where most rivals stop at four
✓Splits lead vocals from backing vocals as separate outputs — an uncommon capability
✓One-time minute packs mean you can use it without committing to a subscription
✓Speech-repair tools (voice cleaner, echo and reverb removal) cover podcast and interview work, not just music

×The core capability is now commoditised — Demucs is free, and Logic Pro, djay Pro and other DAW/DJ software bundle separation you have already paid for
×Free tier is preview-quality only, so you cannot properly evaluate output before buying
×Metered minutes get costly for high-volume or archival work compared with a flat-rate competitor like Moises
×No official DAW plugin — it is a web and desktop workflow, so stems must be exported and re-imported
