AI is no longer just about writing — it’s now part of the music world, too.
You can create your own songs in just a few seconds.
I tested the Mubert AI Music Generator and will show you its main features, pros and cons, and the usage rights for the music you make with it.

How to Use It and My Experience
Here’s how to get started with Mubert — it’s really simple.
Go to their website and sign up using your email, Google account, or Facebook account.
I used the free plan for this review.
This is the main dashboard for generating music.
The tool works through a text-to-music prompt system, but you can also make tracks by picking a genre, mood, or activity.
A cool feature here is Image-to-Music, where you upload a picture from your device.
The tool looks at the image’s visual details and converts them into sound — for example, bright colors might lead to sharper tones and a faster tempo.
Mubert has four different generation modes under “Set type.”
Track mode is the main one and works best for creating full-length songs.
Jingle mode makes short tracks, up to about 40 seconds long.
Loop mode creates repeating tracks that fit short-form videos or social media posts.
Mix mode is for making longer pieces of music.
Here are some examples of the moods and genres you can choose from.
The “Search by reference” feature lets you paste a YouTube link of a song to find similar tracks from Mubert’s library.
At first, it felt a bit like copying, but it actually just analyzes the song’s musical elements and then finds AI-generated tracks with a similar style.
Here are a few example tracks I made with Mubert.
The first one was created by selecting the mood “Run 160.”
I set the duration to 1 minute, but it looks like you can make tracks up to 25 minutes long.
The other track was made by choosing the activity “Christmas.”
Then I tried the text-to-music feature and entered the prompt “Lo-Fi background music for studying.”
If you don’t want to create your own music, you can browse tracks from Mubert’s library.
In the “Explore” section, you can search for tracks by mood, genre, and more.
You can also check out different playlists, like “Music for vlogs.”
With the free plan, each track has an audio watermark that says “Mubert.”
It’s pretty distracting and makes the free plan tracks hard to use for anything serious.
The watermark should really be removed when you download the track.
You also don’t get much control over how the track is made, other than choosing the genre and duration.
There are no vocals, but the tracks do work fine as background music.
Here’s an example track I made — Lo-Fi background music for studying.
It would be a decent track, but in the middle, there’s a very distracting sound that ruins it.
Pros
- Easy to use
- Large selection of moods and genres
- Image-to-music is a fun feature
- Good for background music
Cons
- Only instrumental, no vocals
- Limited editing options
- Audio watermark with the free plan

To Take Home
Mubert is a tool that lets you create music with AI.
Mubert Render is made for content creators who want soundtracks that match their video’s style or audience.
Mubert Studio and Mubert API are built for developers and artists, offering more control and options to make money from the music you create.
My review is based on the free Ambassador plan of Mubert Render.
Making tracks with Mubert was simple and quick.
You can either describe the kind of track you want with text or pick from a long list of genres, moods, and activities.
The results, though, were just okay.
I didn’t try any of the paid plans, so maybe they give better results.
Overall, I think Mubert is an easy and basic tool for making background music or just experimenting with sounds.
