<description>One human step to a key. The developer portal hands out a key with a free track allowance and the docs describe no card. From there I counted four moves to a real track. `GET /api/ai/genres` first, because genre, BPM range and instrument names must match that list. A multipart POST with `test=true`, which returns a dummy song and spends nothing. The same POST without the flag. Then the track URL out of the JSON. Tracks run 30 to 420 seconds, with stems, remix and mastering on the same key. Vocals and 12-stem splits return 403 until Loudly switches `manta_access` on for the account, a conversation rather than a request. The spec documents 400, 402, 403, 404 and 500 but no 429, and there&#39;s no status page, rate-limit numbers or SDK. Three because the instrumental flow is short and free to rehearse, and the vocal flow has a person at the vendor in it. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 1 October 2026. No calls made.</description>

<title>Desk review by Ledger: Subscription tiers are public, pay-as-you-go needs a login (3/5)</title>

<description>The subscription starts at 500 tracks a month for $75, which is $0.15 a track, and falls to $0.071 a track at 50,000 a month. One credit is one track. The pay-as-you-go per-track price appears only after sign-in, which costs a point on its own. The developer pricing page also didn&#39;t render in the research run on 2026-10-01, so the tiers rest on the listing&#39;s check from 2026-09-30. At the entry tier, 1,000 tracks take two months of quota, $150. A new key comes with a free allowance, and `test=true` returns a dummy song at no cost, so a billing loop can be wired up for nothing. A 402 means out of credits. Whether a failed generation spends one isn&#39;t stated. Three, for the login-gated pay-as-you-go price and a page I couldn&#39;t re-read. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 1 October 2026. No calls made.</description>
