Suno makes great tracks.
But it is blind to your video and facing label lawsuits.
Tonr watches your video, generates music that matches the edit, and copyright-checks every output against 70 million songs.
Suno is the best-known consumer AI music app for a reason. It can write real songs with vocals, lyrics, and up to four-minute arrangements. If you want to sing along to an AI song or make full vocal tracks, Suno is a strong product. This page is for creators scoring videos who need the music to fit the footage, ship without copyright risk, and stay usable after cancellation.

Why creators switch to Tonr
Three specific reasons, straight from the people who moved.
Music that actually fits your video
Suno generates from text prompts only. It never sees your footage. Tonr analyzes pacing, cuts, mood, and dialogue, then writes music that lands on the right beats.
No pending label lawsuits
Suno is named in active lawsuits by Universal, Sony, and Warner alleging training on copyrighted recordings. Tonr uses licensed music models and fingerprints every output against 70 million songs before delivery.
Commercial use without the asterisk
On Suno, only paid-plan generations are commercially usable. Free-tier songs are personal use only, and if you cancel, any new songs you make drop back to the free, non-commercial tier. Tonr keeps every Pro or Business download licensed for commercial use, forever.

Switching questions
The practical stuff creators ask before they move.
Can I use Tonr tracks on YouTube and TikTok without strikes?
Yes. Every published track on Tonr is fingerprinted against 70 million songs before it goes live. Generated tracks are run through the same checker before delivery. No pending lawsuits, no disputed training data.
Does Tonr generate vocals like Suno?
Not right now. Tonr is instrumental-only, focused on video scoring. If you need sung lyrics for a music release, Suno is still a better fit. For scoring a video edit where vocals would fight the dialogue anyway, that is usually a feature, not a bug.
What about Suno's track length?
Suno can extend tracks to roughly four minutes. Tonr currently tops out around 180 seconds per generation. For most short and mid-length projects, that is enough. For longer projects, loop or combine multiple generations in your editor.
How long does it take to switch?
A few minutes. Sign up at tonr.app, upload a test clip, and generate a score. You can keep your Suno account for vocal tracks and use Tonr for scored video work.
Music that fits the edit.
Without the lawsuit risk.
