AIVA

What is AIVA?

AIVA (Artificial Intelligence Virtual Artist) is an AI music composition platform that creates original, royalty-free music for films, video games, advertising, and other media projects. Spanning more than 250 styles — from sweeping orchestral scores to modern electronic, ambient, pop, and cinematic soundtracks — it lets creators produce bespoke music without a recording studio or a hired composer. Notably, AIVA was the first AI to be officially recognized as a composer by a music rights society (SACEM), giving it a distinct legal standing among AI music tools.

How does AIVA work?

You start from a preset style or upload an influence track, then guide the generation by specifying parameters such as mood, tempo, key, duration, and instrumentation. AIVA's models compose a complete arrangement, which you can preview and regenerate until it fits your project.

Because the output is structured musical data, you are not locked into a single rendered file. Tracks can be exported as audio or as editable MIDI, and the built-in editor lets you adjust the composition before downloading the final version.

Core features

• 250+ styles — generate music across a broad range of genres, from classical and orchestral to electronic, rock, and ambient.
• Royalty-free licensing — use generated tracks in commercial projects without recurring rights payments, depending on your plan.
• SACEM-recognized composer — officially registered as a composer, a unique credential in the AI music space.
• Parameter control — shape each piece by mood, tempo, key, length, and instrumentation.
• MIDI and stem export — download full tracks or individual stems and MIDI for further editing in your own DAW.
• Built-in editor — refine and tweak the generated arrangement before exporting.

Typical use cases

AIVA is widely used to score short films, trailers, and YouTube content, to create adaptive and background music for indie games, and to produce custom soundtracks for advertising, podcasts, and presentations — anywhere a tailored track is needed quickly and affordably.

Who is it for?

AIVA is built for content creators, indie game developers, filmmakers, advertisers, and musicians who need original, license-clear music on a tight timeline or budget. It is equally useful as a fast soundtrack generator for non-musicians and as an idea-sparking, editable starting point for composers who want to refine the result themselves.
