Free AI Song Generator With No Sign-Up and No Watermark: What Tunely's Free Plan Actually Includes

The Tunely Team · 2026-09-07 · Updated 2026-10-20 · 10 min read
Short answer

Tunely is free to use. Your first song needs no account at all. After a free sign-up with an email address or a Google account (no credit card), you get two generations a day, which is four complete songs with vocals, playable in full and shareable by link, with no watermark. What free does not include: keeping the MP3 on your device ($1.99 once per song, or a $2.99 pack of 10 credits whose 20 songs can all be downloaded), the Remix tools and the Length and fine-tune controls, and commercial rights, which come with Pro at $13.90 a month or $107 a year.

“Free” means different things across AI music tools: a handful of trial credits that never renew, a voice tag stamped over the chorus, or a credit-card form before you've heard a note. People arrive here from ChatGPT and search asking whether Tunely is actually free, so this page lists what the free plan includes, what it doesn't, and what each paid thing costs, using the real numbers from the product rather than a marketing summary. Everything below is current as of October 2026.

What you can do without paying anything

Here is the free plan, item by item. Nothing on this list is a trial that runs out; the daily credits top up every day for as long as you like.

  • Your first song with no account. Open Create, describe the song or paste your lyrics, and generate. You get two versions of a complete song with vocals. Signing in afterwards moves the song into your library.
  • Two generations a day after a free sign-up. Each generation produces two versions, so that's four full songs a day. Credits top back up to two every day (UTC); they don't accumulate, so an unused day isn't lost forever, it's simply a day you didn't need.
  • Full-length songs, not clips. The typical song runs a little over three minutes (3:13 at the median across the six weeks of the AI Song Report, measured from the files), with real verses and a chorus. On Pro you can also set the length yourself, from one to five minutes.
  • The song starts playing while it's still being made. Lyrics and a live stream appear 20 to 30 seconds after you press generate; the finished, mastered versions usually land about a minute after pressing it. The live preview is marked as a preview so you never mistake it for the final song.
  • Two ways to write: describe the song in a sentence and Tunely writes the lyrics, or paste your own words in Custom mode and it composes and sings them.
  • Vocals or no vocals. Instrumentals are one switch, and about 6% of song requests are made with it on.
  • Any language you can type. Write the brief or the lyrics in that language and the song is sung in it.
  • Listen as many times as you like, share by link, keep the song in your library. No watermark, no voice tag, no expiry.
  • The free extras: the lyrics generator, the style Boost that sharpens your description, and the Audio to MIDI converter. The vocal remover costs one credit per split, the same credit you'd spend on a song.

What free doesn't include, and what each thing costs

We charge for four things: more songs in a day than the free ones, keeping the file, the Remix tools and studio controls, and commercial rights. The exact prices, so you don't have to hunt for them on the pricing page:

What you wantKeep the MP3 of one song on your device (personal use)How to get itOne-time download unlock per song, from the song's menuPrice$1.99 once
What you wantMore songs today, once the free ones are used up, every one downloadable as MP3How to get itA one-time pack of 10 credits, offered in the studio when you run out; no subscription, and the credits never expirePrice$2.99 once (20 songs)
What you wantMore songs, Length control and fine-tuning in Custom mode, commercial licence with certificates, free downloads including lossless WAV, the Remix tools, AI cover artHow to get itProPrice$13.90 a month, or $107 a year ($8.90 a month equivalent); 100 generations a month (200 songs), plus 50 bonus generations in your first month
What you wantEverything in Pro at higher volumeHow to get itUltraPrice$29.90 a month, or $239 a year ($19.90 a month equivalent); 300 generations a month (600 songs), plus 50 bonus in the first month
What you wantA vertical music video of your song from one photoHow to get itOne-time purchase, any planPrice$6.99 per video

A generation is one press of the button and always returns two songs. That is true on every plan, so a paid plan never gives you fewer versions than free; it gives you more generations, more tools and the rights.

Why the free plan has no watermark

Most people make a song on Tunely for a person: a birthday, a partner, a friend, a child. A voice tag reading out a brand name in the middle of the chorus ruins exactly that moment, so we never added one. Instead we ask for $1.99 when you want to keep the file, and nothing when you only want to play it or send the link. The share page plays the full song on any phone, no app and no account needed for the listener.

How the limits work day to day

A few details that come up in support mail, answered once.

  • Credits top up to two per day, measured in UTC, not in your local time zone. If you're in the Americas, the refill happens in the evening.
  • A failed generation doesn't cost you. The credit is reserved when you press generate and refunded if the engine fails; you'll see it back in your balance.
  • The first song without an account is limited to one per visitor. After that, sign in; it takes an email address or a Google account and about ten seconds, and it claims the song you just made into your library.
  • The engine refuses two kinds of input: lyrics copied from an existing song (“your lyrics contain copyrighted material”) and style descriptions that name a real artist. Since September 2026, artist names are rewritten automatically into a description of the sound, so the song still generates.
  • Free-plan songs are personal use. Playing them for friends, at a party, in a family video that isn't monetised: all fine. Putting one in an ad, a monetised channel or a release requires Pro; see can you use AI songs commercially.

How this compares with “free” elsewhere

Without naming names, there are three patterns you'll run into, and it's worth checking a tool against them before you invest an evening in it.

  • Trial credits that never renew. You get ten songs, then a paywall. Tunely's credits renew daily.
  • Watermarked or voice-tagged free output. The song is “free” but unusable. Tunely's free songs are clean.
  • A credit card before the first generation, sometimes with an automatic upgrade after a trial. Tunely never asks for a card until you decide to buy something.

The honest catch on our side is the one above: keeping the file costs $1.99, and commercial use costs a subscription. If you want a free tool that lets you download unlimited songs with no strings, we're not it, and we'd rather say so here than in a checkout screen.

What people make songs about

We measured six weeks of song requests, 2 September to 12 October 2026, for the AI Song Report. About one request in six was made for someone or for an occasion, and songs about or for a mother (6.1%) outnumbered birthday songs (4.3%), romance (3.6%) and songs about or for a father (3.3%). Pop (18%) and rap (11%) were the genres people named most often, and 45% of requests came with the person's own lyrics rather than a description.

Lyrics in more than twenty languages come through every month. Counting each person once, by the language most of their songs are in, English is the main language for only about a quarter of people (26.7%). Next come the other Latin-alphabet languages taken together (21.1%), Spanish (11.8%), French (8.8%) and Persian or Urdu (6.1%), then Cyrillic-script languages such as Russian, Hindi, Portuguese, Arabic and German at 3 to 5% each; 8.3% of people sing in more than one language.

One review from our reviews page, from someone who made a birthday song for a friend: “The song turned out surprisingly good, interesting melody with style, nice vocal interpretation.” That is roughly the reaction we're aiming for on the free plan; the paid plan exists for the people who then want to keep making them.

When it's worth paying

Three situations, in order of how often we see them.

  • You made one song and want to keep it: pay $1.99 for that song and stay on the free plan. No subscription needed.
  • You've used today's free songs and want to keep going now: $2.99 for 10 credits, which make 20 songs you can all download as MP3. The credits never expire, and there's no subscription.
  • You make songs every week, or you want Length control and fine-tuning, WAV files, the Remix tools (cover in a new genre, extend, add vocals to your own instrumental, mash two songs together) and AI cover art: Pro. The yearly price works out cheaper than five single downloads a month.
  • You need commercial rights: Pro or Ultra, and every song already in your library becomes licensed, with a certificate you can download for each one.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tunely completely free?

It is free to make, listen to and share songs: a first song without an account, then four full songs a day after a free sign-up, with no watermark and no credit card. Keeping the MP3 on your device costs $1.99 per song, and Length control, Remix tools and commercial rights come with Pro ($13.90 a month or $107 a year).

Do I need to create an account to make a song?

Not for the first one. Open Create, describe the song or paste lyrics, and generate; you get two versions. To make more, sign in with an email address or a Google account. No credit card is asked for at any point on the free plan.

Does the free plan add a watermark or voice tag to songs?

No. Free songs are clean, full-length tracks with no audio watermark, and the share page plays the whole song. We charge $1.99 when you want to keep the file rather than spoiling the listening.

Can I download songs for free?

Listening and sharing are free; keeping the MP3 on your device is a one-time $1.99 unlock per song for personal use, and every song made with a $2.99 credit pack can be downloaded as MP3. Pro and Ultra include downloads of every song, plus lossless WAV for songs made on the current engine.

How many songs can I make per day for free?

Two generations a day, and each generation produces two versions, so four songs a day. Credits top back up to two every day at midnight UTC; they don't accumulate.

How long are the songs?

Full length. The typical song runs a little over three minutes (3:13 at the median in the AI Song Report); on Pro you can set a length from one to five minutes, and extend a song further with the Extend tool. Songs made on our earlier engine were shorter, typically two to three minutes.

Do free songs expire or get deleted?

No. Songs stay in your library and their share links keep working. Delete them yourself from the song menu if you want them gone.

Can I use free-plan songs commercially?

No; the free plan is for personal use. Commercial rights come with Pro and Ultra, and once you're a member every song already in your library is covered, including the ones you made while free. Each gets a downloadable licence certificate.

Can I use my own lyrics on the free plan?

Yes. Switch to Custom mode, paste your lyrics, add a line describing the style and voice, and generate. Nearly half of the songs made on Tunely start from the creator's own words.

What languages does it sing in?

Write the brief or the lyrics in the language you want and the song is sung in it. Lyrics in more than twenty languages come through every month. Counting each person once by their main language, English is about a quarter (26.7%), and Spanish (11.8%) and French (8.8%) are the next single languages (the AI Song Report has the full table).

Is there a free trial of Pro?

There's no timed trial; the free plan itself is the trial, and it doesn't end. If you subscribe, the first month includes 50 bonus generations on top of the plan's allowance.

What happens when I've used my two generations?

The studio shows when your two free credits refill (every day at midnight UTC) and offers two ways to keep going today: Pro, with 150 generations in the first month and 100 a month after that, or a one-time pack of 10 credits (20 songs, every one downloadable as MP3) for $2.99. You can keep listening, sharing and editing titles in the meantime.

If a generation fails, do I lose the credit?

No. The credit is reserved when you start and refunded automatically if the engine fails to deliver a song.

Does the free plan use the same engine as Pro?

Yes. Since September 2026 every plan generates on the same engine. Pro adds Length and fine-tune controls in Custom mode, the Remix tools, downloads and commercial rights. Both make complete songs with lyrics, vocals and instruments, and both return two versions per generation.
