- Yes
- Commercial use
- The vendor keeps the copyright
It also distributes finished tracks to streaming platforms and exposes an API for embedding generation, remix and mastering.
Loudly retains all copyrights in the Loudly Output and is the sole rights holder. Paid subscribers get a licence, and it terminates when the subscription does.
Who owns the output: the vendor, by their own terms
- The licence ends when the subscription ends. All earnings revert to Loudly upon cancellation of a Subscription Plan.
- Depends on your plan tier. Paid subscribers receive a commercial licence; free-plan rights are not specified in the agreement.
- May not be released on streaming platforms. Prohibited: releasing Loudly music or derivatives on any audio streaming service.

Maximum duration and pricing are not established here. That means no page we could retrieve stated them, not that the model lacks them.
Strengths
- Named in-house models for instrumental (VEGA) and vocal (MANTA) generation
- Full toolchain: generate, remix, master, stem-split, distribute
- SongDNA reference-audio fingerprinting
- API-first option for embedding
- Rights-cleared-by-architecture claim, no AI training on uploads
Weaknesses
- Licence terminates on cancellation and monetisation rights revert to Loudly - a rental, not a buy-out
- Loudly retains all copyright in the output
- Streaming release and Content ID are prohibited by the licence, which sits oddly next to Loudly's own distribution offer
- PRO advertising use capped at a $100K annual budget
- Pricing page is JavaScript-rendered and could not be fetched
- No published API docs URL, durations or sample rates
Best for
- Subscribers wanting an all-in-one generate-remix-master workflow
- Social and online video while the subscription is active
Where the sources disagree
Recorded rather than resolved. Picking the tidier number would hide the fact that the vendor's own pages do not agree.
- Loudly's homepage advertises 'Direct release to 50+ streaming platforms' with creators retaining '100% of royalties', while the License Agreement says 'it is not permitted to release any Loudly Music Catalog or derivatives thereof across any audio streaming service'. Presumably the distribution product carries separate terms, but this is not explained on either page.
- releasedOrUpdated reflects the licence update date; no model release dates are published for VEGA 1-3 or MANTA 1.

Shotcraft hosts no sample output. Judging a model means watching its own showreel with your own eyes, and a clip re-hosted here would be a clip we chose.
