4. Generate and compare — Make a few takes, or run the same prompt on Ken Music 1.5 to hear a second engine.
5. Download — Save MP3, WAV or FLAC, or extend the song with Extend on Mureka V8.

## In depth

### Who makes Mureka
Mureka is the AI music platform of Kunlun Wanwei (Kunlun Tech), part of its Kunlun Tiangong AI lineup; its press releases list Skywork AI as the contact [1][2]. It runs at mureka.ai worldwide and mureka.cn in China, and through a developer API whose endpoints cover lyrics-to-song, prompt-to-song, instrumentals, extension, stems and vocal cloning [3].

### Mureka V8, V9 and V9.5
Mureka V8 launched on 28 January 2026. PingWest's report describes MusiCoT, the framework under it, as modelling a song's structure, section logic and expressive intent before the audio, and lists claimed gains in melody, vocals, arrangement and sound [1]. Mureka V9.5 followed in August 2026 [6]; Mureka's own tests report prompts followed in 97.0% of generations and a 95.7% genre match [2]. These are the maker's figures, not independent tests.
In Kenerate's studio the three models split by job:
- Mureka V9.5 — Song, Lyrics and Instrumental modes; writes its own lyrics from a prompt; style chips; vocal gender in Lyrics mode.
- Mureka V9 — Lyrics and Instrumental; up to three takes per run; AI singers.
- Mureka V8 — Lyrics and Instrumental; up to three takes per run; AI singers; also runs Extend.

### Mureka vs Suno, fairly
Both make full songs with vocals from a prompt or lyrics. The differences that are easy to check are plans and files: mureka.ai lists monthly song limits per plan and puts WAV, stems and voice cloning on Pro [4], while Suno's pricing page in September 2026 listed no monthly downloads on its free plan [5]. Sound is a matter of taste, so run one prompt on each and listen. On Kenerate you can at least compare Mureka with three other engines side by side, as the same-prompt card above does with Ken Music 1.5.

## FAQ
Q: What is Mureka AI?
A: Mureka is an AI music generator from Kunlun Tech (Kunlun Wanwei) that makes full songs with vocals from a prompt or your own lyrics, plus instrumentals. It runs on its own site, mureka.ai, through an API, and in other apps, including Kenerate's Music Studio.

Q: What is Mureka V8?
A: Mureka V8 is the model Kunlun Wanwei launched on 28 January 2026. It is built on MusiCoT (Music Chain-of-Thought), which plans a song's structure before generating it, and Mureka claimed better melodies, vocals and arrangements than its earlier models. Mureka V9.5 came out in August 2026.

Q: Can I use Mureka V8 on Kenerate?
A: Yes. Mureka V8 runs in Lyrics and Instrumental modes, up to 4 minutes per song, with up to three takes per run and an optional AI singer cloned from your voice. Extend, which makes a finished song longer, also runs on Mureka V8. The demos on this page were made with Mureka V9.5.

Q: Mureka V9.5 or V8: which should I use?
A: Use V9.5 when you want a song from a prompt alone (it writes the lyrics) or want the newest Mureka model. Use V8 or V9 when you have lyrics and want several takes to choose from, or want to sing with a cloned voice.

Q: Is Mureka free?
A: mureka.ai has a free tier with limits on quality and monthly songs. Its home page lists Basic at $8 a month ($96 a year) and Pro at $24 a month ($288 a year) as of November 2026. On Kenerate a new account gets free credits; after that, a Mureka V9.5 song costs 68 credits, a V8 or V9 take 21 credits, and an extension 45 credits, from one-time packs that never expire.

Q: Mureka vs Suno: which is better?
A: It depends on the song, and we haven't run Suno for this page. Mureka showed a V8-vs-Suno chart on Chinese songs at its January 2026 launch without publishing the scores. On plans, Suno's pricing page (September 2026) listed no monthly downloads on its free plan and caps on paid plans, while mureka.ai lists monthly song limits per plan. The fair test is your own prompt on both.

Q: What is a good Mureka alternative?
A: If you like Mureka but want more than one sound, Kenerate's Music Studio runs Mureka alongside Ken Music, ElevenLabs Music and MiniMax Music on one balance, so you can run the same prompt on each engine and keep the best take.

Q: Can I download Mureka songs as WAV?
A: Yes. In Kenerate's studio every Mureka engine can save MP3, WAV or FLAC. On mureka.ai, WAV downloads are listed on the Pro plan.

Q: How long can a Mureka song be?
A: Kenerate's engine list caps Mureka at about 4 minutes. Lengths vary from run to run: the five V9.5 songs on this page ran from 2 minutes 54 seconds to 4 minutes 27 seconds.

Q: Can I use the songs commercially?
A: Under Kenerate's Terms the music you generate belongs to you, as between you and Kenerate AI, and we claim no royalties in it. Copyright in AI-generated music differs by country, and you're responsible for not infringing anyone's rights, so write your own lyrics and don't imitate a named artist.
