These former Google DeepMind researchers have brought their expertise in AI technologies to create an app that generates high-quality music. The app underwent rigorous testing by top names in the music industry during its closed beta phase. This ensured that the platform was refined and optimized before its public release, ensuring generated tracks maintain stable audio and voice quality.

This is achieved by incorporating feedback from renowned artists and music producers throughout the development process. As a result, the platform guarantees superior sound quality and musicality that aligns with professional standards.

Udio’s AI-powered music-making app, also known as Suno AI, was launched on April 10.
