Operator guidance
The premium-tier current Stable Audio option at $0.26/generation. Choose when you need more than 3 minutes per generation or the maximum quality from the Stable Audio family. If 3 minutes is sufficient, Stable Audio 2.5 provides equivalent quality at $0.20. For vocals and lyrics, Suno v4 is the better choice. For open-weights self-hosting, MusicGen Large eliminates cost at scale.
