Soundraw

SOUNDRAW sits in a crowded AI-music market, and it competes on one axis: rights certainty. Most generators train on scraped catalogues and then hand you indemnity language to argue about later. SOUNDRAW's pitch is structural — its producers write and record the training catalog, so the company owns the masters and publishing on every note the model learns from. That is why its license is simple to read: worldwide, perpetual, commercial use, keep 100% of royalties on Spotify, Apple Music and TikTok. If you have ever had a YouTube claim or a distributor reject a track, that difference is worth more than a marginally better melody generator. On the creation side, the workflow is faster than a stock library and shallower than a DAW. You pick genres — 30+ available, and any two can be blended, so Hip-Hop + Orchestra or Trap + Lo-Fi fuse into a single mix — then you shape the result in a browser Mixer: mute or solo instruments, change intensity and energy, set the length to match a runtime, and SOUNDRAW rebuilds the track instantly. For a podcaster who needs a 22-second outro or a game developer who needs a loopable 90-second bed, that is the whole job done without opening a DAW. Downloads scale by tier: MP3 on Creator and Artist Starter, MP3 + WAV + stems (drums, bass, melody, vocals, FX) from Artist Pro upward. The stems are the reason a producer would pay for Artist Pro rather than Creator — they drop into Ableton, Logic or FL Studio as a starting arrangement. Where it stops is deliberate. There is no MIDI export and no notation, so you cannot take the generated parts and edit individual notes — composition-level control ends at the Mixer's instrument toggles and intensity sliders. There is no text-to-melody generation, so you cannot describe a melody in words and get hummable note data back. There is also no real-time collaboration or shared cloud projects, which rules SOUNDRAW out as a shared workspace for a music team working the same track; you export and hand off instead. The pricing structure has one genuine trap worth knowing before you subscribe. Artist Starter ($19.49/mo billed annually, $29.99/mo month-to-month) costs more than Creator ($11.04/mo billed annually, $16.99/mo month-to-month) while giving you fewer downloads — 10 per month versus unlimited — and the same MP3-only format. Artist Starter exists to add distribution-and-monetization framing for music artists; if you just need background music, Creator is strictly the better buy. Stems, the feature most producers actually want, start at Artist Pro. The monthly download caps on Artist Starter (10) and Artist Pro (20) are easy to blow through if you iterate on a long edit and re-download each revision. One smaller operational note: SOUNDRAW publishes prices in both yen and dollars depending on storefront, so international buyers can absorb conversion and possible foreign-transaction fees on top of the listed rate. The free trial has limited downloads, so you can hear the output
