Udio alternative
A free Udio alternative
Udio makes high-quality AI music from a prompt. LrcSong generates a full sung song from your lyrics on a self-hosted engine — free and private — and then does what Udio doesn't: make it karaoke, sync the lyrics, and export a MIDI melody.
Where Udio is strong
Udio's strength is high-fidelity, natural-sounding AI music generation with fine prompt control.
