How much does Suno cost on each plan?
Suno costs $0, $10 or $30 a month, and the yearly plans cut that to $8 and $24. We read every row from Suno's pricing page and help center on 8 November 2026. US prices, before tax:
| Suno plan | Monthly | Billed yearly | Credits | Songs it makes, at 5 credits a song | Downloads | Commercial use |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | 50 a day | About 10 a day, 300 a month | Up to 7 lifetime trial downloads, personal use only | No |
| Pro | $10 | $96 a year ($8 a month) | 2,500 a month | About 500 a month | 20 a month | Yes, on downloaded songs |
| Premier | $30 | $288 a year ($24 a month) | 10,000 a month | About 2,000 a month | 60 a month, none counted inside Suno Studio | Yes, on downloaded songs |
The song counts come from Suno's own rate. Its v6 FAQ says: "Each time you generate, you make two songs with a total cost of 10 credits." Free gets v6-mini only. Pro and Premier add v6 and v6-wild, stem separation, a priority queue of "up to 10 songs at once" and custom models. Premier adds Suno Studio, a third stem type and the option to add new vocals or instrumentals to a song you already have. Suno's credits article puts the yearly saving at 20%: $24 a year on Pro and $72 on Premier.
How much does one Suno song cost?
A Suno song costs about $0.02 to make on Pro, and $0.50 to download with commercial rights. Credits are cheap. Downloads are the scarce part. Pro's $10 buys 2,500 credits, which is $0.004 a credit, or 2 cents a song at 5 credits. But you can only take 20 songs out of Suno a month, so $10 divided by 20 is $0.50 for each song you can release. Premier works out to exactly the same:
So Premier doesn't make a download cheaper. It triples the count. You pay $20 more for 40 more downloads, 7,500 more credits and Suno Studio. On a yearly plan every download costs $0.40. Suno sells extra credits and extra downloads, but it prints no price for either on a public page: its help center sends you to suno.com/account and "Buy More Credits." Bought credits don't expire, yet the pricing page says they need an active subscription to use.
For scale, Google sells a full song through its API for less than a Suno download. Its Gemini API pricing page lists Lyria 3.5 at $0.08 per song and Lyria 3 Clip at $0.04 per 30-second clip, read 8 November 2026. That's a developer API with no app, no editor and no stems. It's still a useful floor for what one AI song costs to make.
Which Suno plans give you commercial rights?
Only Pro and Premier give commercial rights, and only on songs you download while subscribed. Suno's rights page says songs made on the free plan "can only be used for non-commercial purposes." Subscribing later doesn't fix that: "Subscribing to a Pro or Premier plan does not give you retroactive commercial use licensing." Here's how each kind of song is treated, as of November 2026:
| Song | Commercial use | What it costs you |
|---|---|---|
| Made on Free | No, and subscribing later doesn't add it | $0 |
| Made on Pro or Premier, downloaded while subscribed | Yes, and it stays after you cancel | One of 20 or 60 monthly downloads |
| Made on Pro or Premier, never downloaded | Commercial use needs a download on a paid plan | A download later, while subscribed |
| Free trial download | Personal use only | One of up to 7 lifetime downloads |
| Made in Suno Studio on Premier | Yes | No download limit inside Studio |
The download rule is new. Suno's August 2026 post set the caps from 3 September 2026 and said "Songs downloaded from Suno on paid plans remain yours to use commercially or personally." The caps apply to older songs too. Suno's download help page adds that "Downloading the same song again does not use another download," and a song in several formats still counts once.
What does a typical month of Suno cost?
A typical month costs $0 if you never release anything and $10 if you release up to 20 songs. The download cap picks your plan, not the credits. Take three people, each drafting about 300 songs a month, which is 1,500 credits:
| You make 300 songs a month and release | Plan that fits | Monthly cost | Billed yearly | Cost per released song |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| None, personal listening only | Free (50 credits a day covers 300 songs) | $0 | $0 | Not allowed |
| 10 songs | Pro (2,500 credits, 20 downloads) | $10 | $8 a month | $1.00 monthly, $0.80 yearly |
| 20 songs | Pro | $10 | $8 a month | $0.50 monthly, $0.40 yearly |
| 40 songs | Premier (60 downloads) | $30 | $24 a month | $0.75 monthly, $0.60 yearly |
| 60 songs | Premier | $30 | $24 a month | $0.50 monthly, $0.40 yearly |
The math has one trap. Unused downloads "do not roll over," per Suno, so a quiet month followed by a busy one costs more than the average suggests. If you release 25 songs one month, you either buy extra downloads at a price Suno doesn't publish or pay $20 more for Premier. Free's limit is daily, too: 50 credits, about 10 songs, every day. Suno alternatives covers the music tools that price downloads differently.
What does Suno cost next to the rest of your AI stack?
Suno Pro plus ChatGPT Plus and Claude Pro costs $50 a month, and Suno is the cheapest line on it. OpenAI's ChatGPT pricing page lists Plus at "$20/month," and Anthropic's pricing page lists Claude Pro at "$20 if billed monthly," both read 8 November 2026. Neither makes music.
Whizi, which publishes this page, puts Claude, GPT and Gemini in one chat. Powerhouse at $49.99 a month adds two music models: Whizi Music AI writes original songs of 30 to 150 seconds, and Whizi Music Clip makes clips up to 30. Each song comes back as one MP3. There are no stems and no studio editor. Pro at $29.99 has chat and 100 pictures a month, but no music.
So keep Suno Pro at $10 if you make music to release. It wins on music at that price. Where Whizi helps is the $40 of chat: Pro at $29.99 covers Claude, GPT and Gemini in place of Plus and Claude Pro, and Suno stays a separate line. One subscription for all AI models works through that swap, and the cheapest way to use Claude and GPT prices the chat side alone.
- Stay on Free if you never release songs; 50 credits a day make about 10
- Pick Pro at $10, or $8 a month yearly, if you release up to 20 songs a month
- Move to Premier only past 20 releases a month or for Suno Studio; it doesn't cut the $0.50 download price
- Download songs you might release while you're still subscribed; free songs never gain commercial rights
- Spend each month's downloads before your billing date, since unused ones don't roll over
Frequently asked questions
Is Suno free?
Yes. Suno's free plan gives 50 credits a day, which Suno says is enough for 10 songs, on its v6-mini model as of November 2026.

How many songs can you make with Suno Pro?
Suno Pro makes about 500 songs a month, at 10 credits for each two-song generation from its 2,500 monthly credits. Only 20 of them can be downloaded each month without buying more. How to cancel Suno explains how the download count works when a plan ends.
Can you use free Suno songs commercially?
No. Suno says free-plan songs "can only be used for non-commercial purposes," and subscribing later does not add commercial rights to them. Only songs downloaded on Pro or Premier can be used commercially. Is it worth paying for AI weighs when a paid plan earns its fee.
Is Suno Premier worth it?
Suno Premier is worth it only if you release more than 20 songs a month or need Suno Studio. At $30, each of its 60 downloads costs $0.50, the same as Pro's 20 at $10. AI subscription costs adds Suno to what the other AI plans cost.
