1. Open swarasound.com/create on a laptop or desktop, in the latest Chrome or Edge.
2. Not sure your computer can do it? Press Will my computer handle it? under Engine - it checks in a second. The first song downloads the free engine once (about 1.9 GB) and keeps it. You can keep writing while it downloads.
3. Describe the style in the Style box - or tap a quick style like Pop or Bollywood.
4. Write your words in Lyrics. Stuck? Surprise me fills in a complete idea.
5. Pick a length and press Create. Your song starts playing while it's still being made, and appears under Your songs, right beside Create.

Every press of Create is a new take - make a few and keep the best.

• Mark the parts: [Verse], [Chorus], [Bridge], [Outro]. A repeated chorus makes the song feel like a song.
• Keep lines short and singable - 5 to 9 syllables is a good rhythm. The Rhyme Finder counts syllables for you.
• Write in the language's own script (Devanagari for Hindi, for example) - the language is detected from it, or choose it under More options.
• Match the length to the words: a 30-second song only has room for a verse and a chorus; two minutes fits verse, chorus, verse, chorus.
• Put the singer in the style: "warm female vocal", "powerful male vocal", "soft choir".

On the home page, switch With vocals to Instrumental - the lyrics box disappears and you get music only. For more control over genre, mood and tempo, use Make instrumental. Both use the same engine and the same download.

Songs are saved in your browser - they're there next time you visit, with no account. Clearing your browsing data deletes them, so download the ones you love as MP3 or WAV.

For a safer home, open Settings (in the sidebar) → Where your songs are saved, and choose a folder on your computer (Chrome/Edge) or Google Drive (sign in, follows you to any device).

Suno's own API isn't publicly self-serve, so access goes through kie.ai, a third-party platform that resells API access to Suno's models.

1. Create an account at kie.ai and add credit - a Suno song through it runs a few cents.
2. Find the "API Keys" page in your kie.ai account settings and generate a key.
3. On Create, pick Suno under Engine, press Add key and paste it.

The key is saved in your browser (or your own Google Drive if you sign in) and sent straight through to kie.ai with each request - never stored by us.

1. Create an account at platform.mureka.ai and add credit.
2. Generate an API key from your account's API section.
3. On Create, pick Mureka under Engine, press Add key and paste it.

Swara Engine - free and unlimited. Start here.

Suno (via kie.ai) - very consistent vocal quality, priced per song. Mureka - usually cheaper per song, several takes per request. Both run in the cloud and are usually ready in a few minutes; Create shows a cost estimate before you make the song.

Create Music is where songs are made. Under Engine, the free Swara Engine needs nothing else; Suno and Mureka need your own key. More options has the title, the lyrics language, tempo and take number.

Every finished song lands in Your songs, beside Create. Its ⋯ menu downloads it, renames or deletes it, and Reuse this prompt puts its style and lyrics back into Create so you can tweak it and make another. The heart keeps your favourites one tap away. With Suno/Mureka, if you reload mid-way, a "Resume" card picks the song back up.

This browser (the default) needs no setup - but clearing your browsing data deletes it. Change it in Settings.

A folder on this computer writes plain audio files to a folder you pick (Chrome/Edge only). It's remembered: on later visits it reconnects by itself, or asks for one "Allow" click - choose "Allow on every visit" and it stops asking.

Google Drive uses a normal, visible Drive folder - slower per file, but it follows you to any signed-in device.

Open Produce an Album in the sidebar. Name the album, then fill in one card per song - a title, a style and the lyrics (leave the lyrics empty for an instrumental). Add a song adds another card, up to 10. Press Make all songs and they're made one after another and saved to Your songs as each one finishes; Stop ends it after the current song. Your cards are kept in this browser, so you can come back to them.

Planning in a spreadsheet instead? Import sheet fills the cards from an .xlsx in the layout of the blank template, and Save sheet gives it back with each song's status - re-import it later to make only the songs that are left. With the free Swara Engine, the whole album costs nothing.
