AIVA
A veteran AI composer for cinematic and orchestral scoring.
AIVA, from Luxembourg, is one of the oldest AI composition tools and remains a favorite for orchestral, cinematic and game-style instrumentals. You generate from presets or your own influences, then edit notes and instruments in a piano-roll editor and export audio or MIDI. Its rights model is the clearest reason to pay: the Pro plan assigns you full copyright of your compositions, while Free and Standard only license them, with Standard allowing limited monetization like YouTube. It doesn't do vocals.
