Who Owns an AI-Generated Song? Rights and Commercial Use Explained

This is the question every creator asks, and the honest answer is: it depends on more than one thing. This article is not legal advice; it is a map of what to check.

Three layers to consider

  1. The terms of the services you use. Each AI provider decides, in its terms, what rights it grants over the output and under which plan. When you create in MixingMusic, the song is generated with the Suno V6 model through KIE.ai, so their terms matter, as do MixingMusic's terms.
  2. Copyright law in your country. Many jurisdictions are still deciding whether, and how much, a fully AI-generated work can be protected by copyright. Human contribution (your lyrics, your melody, your arrangement choices) often matters.
  3. The platforms where you publish. Distributors and streaming services have their own policies on AI-generated content and may ask you to disclose it.

What strengthens your position

  • Write your own lyrics. Lyrics you wrote are your work.
  • Start from your own melody (a recording or a hum).
  • Make real production decisions: choose versions, replace the vocal with your own, mix the stems, master.
  • Keep records: your lyrics drafts, recordings and session files.

Before releasing commercially

  • Read the current terms of every service involved and save a copy.
  • Check your distributor's AI policy.
  • For commercial projects (ads, jingles, films), ask a lawyer in your country.

What MixingMusic says in its terms

Our terms explain that songs are generated with the Suno V6 model through KIE.ai, that MixingMusic is not affiliated with Suno, and that rights over results depend on the providers' terms and do not include exclusivity. If something in this area changes, the terms are where we update it.

Try it in MixingMusic

Create your song with the Suno V6 engine: 1 free song up to 2:30 with its stems, two versions of every song, and mixing and mastering in the same account. Songs and recordings are kept for 30 days and stems for 7 days, so download what you want to keep.

MixingMusic.AI uses the Suno V6 model through KIE.ai. MixingMusic.AI is not affiliated with or endorsed by Suno; Suno is a trademark of its owner.
