MakeSong
MakeSong turns a text prompt or your own lyrics into a fully sung track in seconds, then adds music videos, lip-sync clips, artwork and stem separation. Downloads are royalty-free in MP3 or lossless WAV.
What is MakeSong?
MakeSong is a browser-based AI music studio published by CODEONE LTD in London. Its core is a song generator with two ways in: Prompt to Music, where you describe the track you want, and Lyric to Music, where you paste your own words and let the model sing them. Three model generations are advertised, V5, V4 and V3, and structure tags such as [chorus] let you steer the arrangement. The input fields are generous: 5,000 characters of lyrics, 1,000 characters of style, and a 30-character title, alongside Style, Moods, Voices and Tempos tags and a More Controls panel for finer steering. Each generation costs 3 credits, a preview of the intro and first verse arrives within about thirty seconds, and finished songs can run up to eight minutes depending on how much text you supply. Vocals are advertised in any language, with French, English, Spanish, German and Russian named explicitly. Everything downloads as MP3 or lossless WAV, royalty-free and cleared for commercial use.
Around that generator sits a genuinely broad toolset. A free vocal remover works without an account and without limits, returning a karaoke track and an acapella in roughly ten seconds from MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, FLAC or OGG files up to 100 MB, or straight from a pasted URL, and it reports the song's key and BPM. A stem splitter goes further, offering four stems free for three songs and a Pro mode that separates twelve named parts, from backing vocals and drums to strings, brass and woodwinds. On the video side, a music video generator handles clips up to five minutes at 1080p Pro with lyric subtitles, character consistency and up to seven reference images; a lip-sync tool animates a real face photo into a singing video up to ten minutes long; and Seedance 2.0 adds multi-modal video with native audio-visual sync. Smaller utilities round it out: beat maker, song name generator, acapella extractor, AMV maker, singing photo, audio to video, music visualizer, LRC generator and mashup generator. The interface ships in twelve languages, and a new account starts with eight free songs.

When to use MakeSong / When not to
A quick filter to help you decide if MakeSong is the right fit.
When to use MakeSong
- Independent musicians and songwriters who need finished backing tracks, demos or B-sides without booking studio time
- Social media and short-form creators sourcing original, royalty-free music for TikTok, YouTube and Instagram edits
- Game developers scoring levels and cutscenes with mood-specific loops, from tense to relaxed
- Podcasters and audio-drama producers looking for intros, beds and sound effects matched to a genre
- DJs, remixers and karaoke singers who need a clean acapella or instrumental pulled out of an existing track
When not to use MakeSong
- Regulated enterprise buyers: no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 claim, no DPA, no published subprocessor list
- Teams needing programmatic access, since no API documentation is published anywhere on the site
- Anyone under 13, who is excluded by the terms of service
- Studios wanting multitrack editing or fine mixing, as the tool delivers finished MP3 and WAV files rather than a session
- Buyers who require a written GDPR commitment, which the site never makes despite processing data in the United Kingdom
How to use MakeSong
A typical end-to-end flow, from setup to results.
- Open the generator in any browser; there is nothing to install

- Hit Generate Music and spend 3 credits; the intro and first verse preview within about thirty seconds
- Listen in the built-in player, then download the finished track as MP3 or lossless WAV
- For a music video, pick the song or upload audio, choose model V1 or V2 HD+, add up to seven reference images, set aspect ratio and resolution, and generate
- For a singing video, upload an MP3 or WAV of ten minutes or less plus a real face photo, then choose Sync V1 for a single shot or Sync V2 for automatic multi-shot
- To split a track, upload the file or paste a URL on the vocal remover page and collect the karaoke and acapella stems about ten seconds later

Data, GDPR & hosting
A consolidated view of how MakeSong handles your data.
GDPR overview
The GDPR is never named on this site. A search across every archived page returns no occurrence of GDPR, General Data Protection or CCPA. What the privacy policy does offer is a list of rights that mirrors the regulation's substance: access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction, portability and withdrawal of consent. Beyond that list, the usual machinery is missing. No Article 27 representative is designated, no data protection officer is named, and the only channel of any kind is support@makesong.com. No lawful basis for processing is stated, no retention period is given for personal data, and no DPA or subprocessor list is published. International transfers to the United Kingdom are announced without naming a transfer mechanism. The policy is dated 16 December 2024 and the governing law is that of the United Kingdom.
Who owns the data?
CODEONE LTD owns the service and everything in it except what users upload. You keep every right to your own uploads, but you grant the company a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, copy and process them in order to run the service. Songs the AI generates come back to you under a licence whose scope depends on your subscription tier, and the company keeps the right to reuse anonymised generated content to improve the service. Personal data is not sold; it may be shared with service providers, disclosed when the law requires it, or used to protect the company's rights, property and safety. Compliance with applicable law when reusing a generated track is explicitly the user's responsibility.
Reuse rights
MakeSong states that generated songs are 100% royalty-free and cleared for commercial use, that you own a track once you generate it, and that no further permission or fee is needed to put it on a YouTube channel, behind a video or even in an advertisement. Files download as MP3 or lossless WAV, and paid tiers add an explicitly downloadable commercial licence. Two clauses temper that promise and are worth reading before you build a business on it: clause 5.3 ties the licence you receive to your subscription tier, and clause 2.5 lists restrictions on commercial use of generated content among the service's usage limits without ever quantifying them.
Data retention & training
Hosting summary
The privacy policy states that user information may be transferred to and held on computers outside the user's own jurisdiction, and that anyone located outside the United Kingdom should expect their data to be transferred to the United Kingdom and processed there. The governing law of the terms is British and the publisher is established in London, so the declared jurisdiction is consistent. Announced safeguards are SSL/TLS encryption in transit, regular security assessments, access controls and authentication measures, and secure storage practices. The terms also describe cloud GPU compute and parallel audio-segment processing. No hosting provider is named, no country other than the United Kingdom is mentioned, and no subprocessor list is published. One point deserves care: the domain resolves to 76.76.21.21, an anycast address geolocated in the United States and belonging to Amazon's AS16509. That is a content-delivery node, not a storage location, and it does not contradict the British jurisdiction the company declares.
Things to keep in mind
Risks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting MakeSong.
- The vocal remover page invites you to paste a YouTube link; stripping stems from a copyrighted track can infringe, and the terms put that responsibility squarely on you
- The promise that you own what you generate sits against terms that tie the licence to your tier and mention unquantified commercial restrictions, so read both before monetising
- The company keeps the right to reuse anonymised generated content to improve the service, with no documented way to opt out
- Lyrics and prompts you type are retained as usage data, and no retention period is published for personal data
- Asking the model to imitate a named artist's voice can infringe that performer's image and neighbouring rights
- Singing videos animate a real face photo, so uploading someone else's portrait without consent is a direct legal and ethical risk
- Creative dependency cuts both ways: three clicks replace learning to write music, and songs on entry tiers are only stored for 365 days
Setup & Integrations
Technical difficulty
Very low. Everything runs in the browser on a computer or a phone, with nothing to install, and several tools work with no account at all. Signing up takes one of three routes: Google, GitHub, or a six-digit code emailed to you and valid for ten minutes. The first song is immediate, paste lyrics or a description, add a title, click once. The only concept to absorb is the credit system, three credits per song and two or twenty for stem splitting. Advanced controls exist but none of them are required.

Should you pick MakeSong?
MakeSong packs a surprising amount of working technology behind one small London company. The song generator is the centre of it, but the surrounding tools carry real weight: an unlimited vocal remover that asks for nothing at all, a twelve-stem splitter, music videos up to five minutes, lip-synced singing videos up to ten. For a solo creator who needs original music for a video, a game level or a podcast intro, the free layer alone is worth the visit, and the paid tiers are priced conventionally at USD 14.90 to USD 59.90 per month with lossless WAV available from the bottom rung.
The reservations are about paperwork rather than product. The two legal pages are served the wrong way round, which is careless on a site that asks for payment. The GDPR is never named, no DPA or subprocessor list exists, no security certification is claimed, and no retention period is published for personal data. The marketing line that you own any track you generate sits awkwardly beside terms that tie your licence to your subscription tier and mention unspecified restrictions on commercial use. The company itself is young and thinly documented, with no disclosed funding, and the UK public register records a beneficial owner resident outside the United Kingdom.
Read that as a split verdict. As a fast, cheap and genuinely capable creative tool for individuals and small teams, MakeSong earns its place. As a supplier for anything contractual, an organisation with a procurement checklist should ask for the documentation the site does not provide, and should decide for itself how much weight the royalty-free promise can bear.
