Leading AI voice platform for text-to-speech, voice cloning, dubbing, music and voice agents.
Udio
AI Voice & AudioUdio is an AI music generator that creates songs with vocals from text prompts and lets users extend, remix and edit tracks. After its settlement and licensing deal with Universal Music Group in late 2025, downloads of audio, video and stems were disabled, and Udio is moving toward a licensed, walled-garden platform with UMG. It is used by music hobbyists and fans who create and share inside the service.
