Our Mubert review
Mubert is a solid AI tool option: strongest at background music for videos, weakest on tracks can sound generic.
We score Mubert 4.0 out of 5 — strong ease of use, acceptable performance and solid value for money.
What Mubert is
Mubert is Mubert's AI tool product, launched in 2019. Generative royalty-free music platform that streams or renders tracks from text prompts, with an API for apps and games.
It is aimed at beginner users — the learning curve is gentle. Day one you would use it for background music for videos and in-app and game soundtracks. It runs on Web and API, with no mobile app, and there is an API if you want it inside your own systems.
Where it shines
The core strengths are easy to state: cheap, fast background music and solid developer API. The feature set behind that is text-to-music generation, streaming API for apps and games and royalty-free commercial licence.
We rate performance 3.9/5 and answer accuracy around 80% for the tasks in this category, which is why it holds up for background music for videos and in-app and game soundtracks.
Where it falls short
The honest downsides: tracks can sound generic and limited fine editing.
Nothing here needs training, so the risk is not difficulty — it is paying for capability you never use.
Pricing and value for money
Pricing is $14/mo Creator. At $14 a month that is $168 a year per person, in line with the rest of the category. A free tier exists, so you can test it properly before paying.

Who should use Mubert
Mubert is the right call for background music for videos and in-app and game soundtracks. Look elsewhere if tracks can sound generic is a bigger problem for you than cheap, fast background music is a benefit.
We do not track a direct replacement for it yet, which is part of the argument for it.
Worth a trial: Mubert at $14/mo is best used for background music for videos and in-app and game soundtracks, and it earns 4.0/5 from us.
