AI‑generated music in 2026 combines faster, higher‑quality generative models with growing marketplaces and production tools. This topic surveys prominent offerings — from flagship models like Lyria 3 and Opus to competitors and adjacent services — and explains how creators can generate, edit, license and finish tracks within modern workflows. Many platforms now convert text or voice prompts into complete, royalty‑free songs in seconds or provide component exports (stems, MIDI, toplines) for DAW integration. Key tools include ACE–Step, an open‑source foundation model and browser‑first product that turns prompts into full songs; Amadeus Code (rebranded from Evoke Music) offering FUJIYAMA AI SOUND plus curated libraries and topline MIDI; Musci, a studio‑oriented generator aimed at rapid prototyping of professional tracks; MasteringBOX, an AI mastering service for instant finalization; Flowfi, which focuses on adaptive lo‑fi soundscapes for productivity; and utility services such as AI Voice Generator for TTS and voice cloning used to add vocal elements. Relevance in early 2026 stems from continued model improvements, tighter integration between generation, editing and licensing, and increasing specialization — from full‑song generators to marketplaces that sell prebuilt assets and SFX. Practical considerations include export formats, copyright/royalty terms, human‑in‑the‑loop controls, and compatibility with existing music production workflows. This overview helps creators, publishers and developers compare options across two categories — AI music creation tools and AI tool marketplaces — to choose platforms that match needs for speed, control, quality and commercial usage.
