4.3our rating
FreemiumFrom $0

Quick take

  • Google's answer to Suno: describe a song in a chat and get a full track with vocals, then edit any part of it.
  • Free to start with daily credits. Starter at $6 a month gives about 600 songs' worth of credits.
  • Music videos made with Google's Veo model, plus stem splitting and remixing, are built in.
  • Commercial use terms are still settling, so check them before you put a track in an ad.

What is Google Flow Music?

Google Flow Music is Google's app for making music with AI. You chat with an assistant called Producer, describe the song you want, and it writes and performs a full track with vocals using Google's Lyria 3.5 music model. You can then change parts of it: a section, the tempo, the lyrics or the mix.

It does more than songs. You can split a track into stems (separate vocals, drums and instruments), remix your own audio, add effects, and direct a music video for the song using Google's Veo video model. There's also a community side where you publish songs and follow other makers, and Spaces, where you can build small music apps by describing them.

It works on the web and as an iPhone app, with Android still to come, and it's for adults only. Before using a track in an ad or client work, check Google's terms for commercial use, because they're still settling.
