01
Parents
Turn a bedtime story, or the story of the day your child was born, into a song they can listen to again and again.
Story to Song
Paste a story with the people, the place, and the moment it happened. The music Agent writes lyrics from it and produces the song — then ask for any changes.
Details that make the song yours
- Who — names, and how they're connected to you
- When and where — the year, the season, the place
- What happened — the moment that changed something
- How it should sound — a genre, a mood, or who it's for (optional)

Story to Song
Turn a Story Into a Song With AI
Write it the way you'd tell it to a friend. The music Agent finds the moments that carry a song, writes lyrics around your names and places, and produces the track.
How it works
From Your Story to a Finished Song
1Step 1
Paste your story
Write it the way you'd tell it — who was there, when and where it happened, and the moment that mattered. Add a genre or mood if you have one in mind.
2Step 2
The Agent writes the lyrics
The music Agent picks the moments that carry a song and writes lyrics around your names and places. It may ask about details it needs.
3Step 3
Listen and ask for changes
Hear the song in your workspace, then ask in plain words — fix a name, add a verse, make it slower — and generate another take.
Story starters
Stories That Make Good Songs
Any story with a person, a place, and a turning point can become a song. A few places to start:
A family memory
“My mom taught me to ride a bike in our apartment parking lot in 1994…” Good for a birthday, anniversary, or memorial song.
A bedtime story
“A little fox named Pip who is afraid of the dark…” Ask for a soft lullaby and keep the words simple for kids.
How you met
“We met on the last train out of the city…” Turn it into a song for a wedding or an anniversary.
A trip or an adventure
“Three friends, one broken-down van, and the Oregon coast…” Make it upbeat for a travel video.
Features
Story to Song AI That Keeps Your Details
You bring the story. The Agent handles the song structure, the rhymes, and the production.
Paste the whole story
Write it the way you would tell a friend: who was there, when and where it happened, and the moment that changed something. A few sentences to a few paragraphs works best. Longer stories are fine, because the Agent picks the moments that carry a song and leaves the rest, but say which parts matter most so they are not left out.
Lyrics built on your details
The Agent writes lyrics around the names, places, years, and small moments you give it, so the song sounds like your story rather than a generic one. The more specific the details, the better it works. Read the lyrics in the workspace before you share; unusual names may be sung differently than you say them, so listen first and ask for a fix.
Changes in plain words
Reply to the Agent the way you would brief a songwriter: fix a name, add a verse about the dog, make the chorus simpler, or slow the whole thing down. You can ask to see the lyrics first and edit them before anything is generated, then request another take once the words feel right. Each message and each generation uses credits.
Any genre or mood
Ask for a lullaby, a folk ballad, a pop song, a country tune, or a rap, or let the Agent suggest a direction that fits the story. Mention who the song is for and the occasion, such as a birthday, an anniversary, or a memorial. For a child, give their age so the Agent keeps the words simple and the arrangement gentle.
Sung or instrumental
Hear your story sung with lyrics, or switch the composer to instrumental for a score that follows the story's mood without words. Instrumental works well for a travel video, a slideshow, or a scene you want to set to music. Either way, you can keep replying in the same conversation to change the lyrics, the genre, or the overall sound.
Download on a paid plan
Every song lands in your library, and you can share a link to it with family and friends. Paid plans add audio downloads and commercial use under the applicable agreement, and Pro and Ultra users can also download a personalized license agreement. That makes it easy to play the song at a party, add it to a video, or give it as a gift.
