Strengths and weaknesses
Suno
- Complete songs with vocals in seconds
- Free plan uses a full-length model
- Strong mobile apps on iPhone and Android
- Free songs can't be downloaded
- Paid downloads are capped each month
- Trains on your songs with no opt-out
Suno is still the easiest way to get a finished song, vocals and all, from a sentence. Its v6 models arrived in September 2026, built with licensed music from Warner, BMG and Believe, and make tracks up to eight minutes, while Studio 2.0 adds MIDI editing. The free plan's 50 daily credits run v6-mini, but free songs can't be downloaded, and Suno trains on what users create.

Leonardo.Ai
- Generous daily free allowance
- Many image models in one app
- Unused paid tokens roll over up to 3 months
- Free images are public
- Private mode and Veo video need a paid plan
- Free daily tokens don't carry over
Leonardo gives you a lot to play with for free: 150 tokens a day across its own models plus Nano Banana, FLUX and Seedream, with Veo video on paid plans. Blueprints turn common jobs into ready-made templates, and since Canva owns it, you can send images straight there. The trade-off on the free plan is that everything is public and Leonardo keeps broad rights to reuse it.
