Suno API PricingWhat It Actually Costs in 2026
Suno has no public developer API, so there is no official Suno API price list. Developers run Suno-style generation through compatible APIs instead. On MusicAPI, one generation costs 15 credits and returns two full tracks — working out to roughly $0.11–$0.30 per generation depending on how you buy credits.

Is there official Suno API pricing?
No. As of 2026, Suno offers music generation only through its web app — there is no public developer API, no self-serve API keys, and no published API price list. In July 2026 Suno announced it is exploring a curated partner program for a future developer API, but with no public timeline or pricing. If you need programmatic Suno-style generation today, a compatible API is the practical route — and the numbers below are what that costs.
Pay-as-you-go credit packs
15 credits per generation on v3.5 / v4, 20 on v4.5 and newer · every generation returns 2 full tracks
| Pack | Credits | Per generation | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| $5 | 340 | ~$0.29 | entry pack |
| $20 | 1,350 | ~$0.30 | starter |
| $50 | 3,600 | ~$0.28 | small batch |
| $100 | 8,350 | ~$0.24 | best pack rate |
Per-generation figures use the 15-credit rate of the older models (v3.5, v4). Newer models consume 20 credits per generation, so multiply by about 1.33.
Subscription plans
Annual billing saves about two months · subscribers can top up extra credits anytime
| Plan | Credits / mo | Generations | Per generation | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $19/mo | 1,300 | ~65 | ~$0.29 | cancel anytime |
| $99/mo | 8,700 | ~435 | ~$0.23 | priority queue |
| $499/mo | 66,000 | ~3,300 | ~$0.15 | higher concurrency |
| $999/mo | 175,000 | ~8,750 | ~$0.11 | best public rate |
Generation counts and per-generation rates use the 20-credit cost of a generation, which is the same on every model since Suno retired v3.5 through v5.5 on 9 September 2026.

Suno API pricing FAQ
- How much does the Suno API cost?
- Suno itself does not publish API pricing because it has no public API. Through MusicAPI, a Suno-compatible generation API, one generation costs 20 credits on every model, and returns two full tracks. Pay-as-you-go packs work out to about $0.24–$0.30 per generation, and monthly subscriptions bring the effective rate down to roughly $0.11–$0.29 per generation depending on the tier.
- Does Suno have official API pricing?
- No. As of 2026 Suno has no public developer API and therefore no public API pricing. In July 2026 Suno announced it is exploring a curated partner program for a future API, without a published timeline or price list. Developers who need Suno-style generation today price it through compatible APIs such as MusicAPI.
- Can I try Suno-style API generation for free?
- Yes. A MusicAPI account includes free trial credits with no card required, so you can run real generations against your own API key before paying anything. There is also a browser playground with a free demo generation.
- Should I choose credit packs or a subscription?
- Credit packs suit irregular or low volume — pay only when you top up. Subscriptions suit steady volume: the $19/month plan's 1,300 credits cover 65 generations, and larger tiers cut the per-generation rate to about $0.15 at $499/month and $0.11 at $999/month. Subscribers can still top up extra credits anytime.
