ElevenLabs announced in November 2026 that users of its ElevenMusic platform can now publish AI-generated songs directly to SoundCloud, marking the first time ElevenMusic creations have been distributed beyond ElevenLabs’ own ecosystem.
As part of the partnership, SoundCloud Artist Pro subscribers will receive three months of ElevenMusic Pro at no additional cost. That tier allows users to generate up to 1,000 songs, split stem files 500 times, and create five custom styles or vocals per month.
ElevenLabs first launched a music-generation model in 2025, then released a consumer app for prompt-based song creation in April 2026. A month later, the company introduced an updated model capable of switching genres mid-track and handling more complex vocals. To date, users have generated over 25 million tracks across its music models.
SoundCloud CEO Eliah Seton said in a statement: “SoundCloud has always been a place where artists experiment, push boundaries, and turn creative ideas into something bigger. By becoming the first platform to bring ElevenMusic creations directly to fans beyond its own ecosystem, we’re opening up new possibilities for artists to experiment, share their work, and build an audience.”
SoundCloud has been expanding its AI integrations on multiple fronts. Last month, it partnered with AI music tooling company Moises to allow artists to import and export songs to and from the platform. It also has existing integrations with Google Flow Music and the remix platform Hook.
ElevenLabs holds a separate partnership with Spotify, through which authors can use its audio models to generate audiobook narrations for publication on that service.
The deal arrives as streaming platforms take varying stances on AI-generated content. Deezer is introducing a toggle to filter out AI music, Bandcamp has banned AI-generated tracks outright, and Spotify and YouTube have opted for cautious labeling approaches.
