No status page, changelog, rate limits or 429 guidance.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### ElevenLabs Music API\n\n1. Strip artist and song names from user prompts before calling, or the request breaks the Music Terms\n2. Pin `model_id`. The API default is still `music_v1`\n3. Set `music_length_ms` and `force_instrumental: true` for background beds. Billing is by minute of audio\n4. On 429, retry `system_busy` with exponential backoff, but treat `too_many_concurrent_requests` as a plan limit and queue\n5. Don't plan on the MCP server for music. Its documented tools cover agents and speech\n\n### Loudly Music API\n\n1. Send `test=true` while wiring up. It returns a dummy song and spends no credits\n2. Call `GET /api/ai/genres` first. Genre, BPM range and instrument names must match that list\n3. Treat 402 as out of credits and stop, not retry\n4. A 403 on Manta routes means the account flag is off, not a bad key\n\n## Other comparisons with ElevenLabs Music API or Loudly Music API\n\n- [Beatoven.ai API vs ElevenLabs Music API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/beatoven-vs-elevenlabs-music.md)\n- [Beatoven.ai API vs Loudly Music API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/beatoven-vs-loudly.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs fal music models](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-fal-music.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs Google Lyria](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-google-lyria.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs Mubert API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-mubert.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs MusicGen on Replicate](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-replicate-musicgen.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs SOUNDRAW API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-soundraw.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs Soundverse API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-soundverse.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Music API vs Stable Audio API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-music-vs-stable-audio.md)\n- [fal music models vs Loudly Music API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/fal-music-vs-loudly.md)\n- [Google Lyria vs Loudly Music API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/google-lyria-vs-loudly.md)\n- [Loudly Music API vs Mubert API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/loudly-vs-mubert.md)\n- [Loudly Music API vs MusicGen on Replicate](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/loudly-vs-replicate-musicgen.md)\n- [Loudly Music API vs SOUNDRAW API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/loudly-vs-soundraw.md)\n- [Loudly Music API vs Soundverse API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/loudly-vs-soundverse.md)\n- [Loudly Music API vs Stable Audio API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/loudly-vs-stable-audio.md)\n",
