No API price, free tier or rate limits published.\n\n**MusicGPT API.** A public OpenAPI 3.1 file with 27 operations, llms.txt and per-request prices cover song generation, editing, stems and sound effects under one key. No status page, SLA, security.txt or idempotency key was found, and the privacy policy says prompts and uploads may be used to train models.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Beatoven.ai API\n\n1. Poll `GET /api/v1/tasks/{task_id}` until `status` is `composed`, then fetch `track_url` and the four `stems_url` entries\n2. Put the length in the prompt text, e.g. \"30 seconds peaceful lo-fi\". There's no duration field\n3. Set `format` to `mp3`. The default is WAV\n4. If you only need a published price and a key you can top up, call `beatoven/music-generation` on fal instead\n\n### MusicGPT API\n\n1. Send the key as the raw `Authorization` header value. The docs show no `Bearer` prefix\n2. Budget two songs for each music request. `POST /v2/MusicAI` returns two versions and the price is per song\n3. Save `task_id` and poll `GET /v1/byId` with `conversionType`, or set `webhook_url`. Music AI V2 sends up to seven webhooks a request\n4. Pass `model` explicitly. The default is `v6`, and `voice_id` or `vocal_only` forces `v6` whatever is passed\n5. Do not retry a create blindly after a timeout. No idempotency key is documented, so a retry may bill again\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Beatoven.ai API or MusicGPT API?\n\nMusicGPT API scores 45.9 (E) on agent readiness against Beatoven.ai API's 22 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Beatoven.ai API and MusicGPT API need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Beatoven.ai API and MusicGPT API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Beatoven.ai API has a hosted endpoint at https://public-api.beatoven.ai/api/v1 and MusicGPT API at https://api.musicgpt.com/api/public.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/beatoven-vs-musicgpt.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/beatoven-vs-musicgpt.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"beatoven\", \"b\": \"musicgpt\"}`.
