The verdict

Suno wins, 8.1 to 5.0

SOUNDRAW builds instrumental tracks from genre, mood and instrument choices, with no sung vocals; Suno generates full songs with sung vocals from lyrics you write or a prompt. Suno's cheapest paid plan is $10 a month ($8 billed yearly), with full ownership and commercial use on Pro and Premier; SOUNDRAW starts at $19.99 a month and never gives ownership, just a licence, though its cheapest plan does include commercial use. Both let you download stems, though Suno unlocks that on paid plans and SOUNDRAW only on higher tiers.

Pick SOUNDRAW if you want genre-based instrumentals with commercial rights from your first plan.

Pick Suno if you want sung vocals and full ownership from the cheapest plan.
