ElevenLabs has introduced Music v2, a new AI music generation model aimed at creators, developers, and enterprise customers as competition in generative audio continues to intensify.
The release expands the company’s push beyond voice synthesis into AI-generated music, with improvements focused on vocal quality, instrumentation, multilingual support, and more complex song structures. According to ElevenLabs, the model can handle rapid lyrical delivery, transitions across multiple genres within a single track, and embedded sound effects while maintaining musical consistency.
Music v2 will power three separate products across the company’s ecosystem. ElevenMusic is designed for creators producing and remixing tracks, ElevenAPI targets developers integrating music generation into applications, and ElevenCreative focuses on licensed music creation for advertising and branded media.
The company also introduced new editing and composition tools. Users can regenerate specific sections of a song through improved inpainting capabilities, allowing selective changes without altering the rest of a track. Music v2 also supports building songs section by section, enabling longer-form compositions with continuity across intros, verses, and choruses.
Alongside the launch, ElevenLabs said it is reducing pricing for both Music v1 and Music v2 by up to 50% for API customers and up to 40% for self-serve users of ElevenCreative. The pricing adjustments come as AI music startups compete on both model quality and accessibility for developers and media companies.
The announcement also reflects a broader industry focus on licensed training data and commercial rights. ElevenLabs said Music v2 was trained exclusively on licensed material and that generated tracks are cleared for commercial use. The company referenced recent licensing collaborations with music company Believe as part of what it described as growing alignment between AI developers and rights holders.
Music v2 is available immediately through ElevenMusic and ElevenCreative, with API access expected to follow soon.
