Music Terms
Last Updated: 5 August 2025
PLEASE READ THESE SERVICE-SPECIFIC TERMS CAREFULLY.
These Music Terms (“Service Terms”) supplement your (“you”, “your” or “Customer”) existing agreement with ElevenLabs or, if no separate agreement exists, the ElevenLabs Terms of Service (either, the “Underlying ElevenLabs Agreement”). Your use of Music (defined below) is also subject to our Prohibited Use Policy and our Privacy Policy. Defined terms used in these Service Terms have the meanings set forth in the Underlying ElevenLabs Agreement.
Please read these Service Terms carefully. By using Music, you agree to these Service Terms. If you do not agree or do not have the authority to agree, you are not permitted to use Music. These Service Terms constitute a legally binding contract between you and ElevenLabs. In case of any conflict between these Service Terms and other terms agreed upon between you and ElevenLabs, these Service Terms shall prevail with respect to your access or use of Music.
THESE SERVICE TERMS CONTAIN VARIOUS LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS OF LIABILITY IN SECTION 3.
1. MUSIC. “Music” is a Service offered by ElevenLabs that uses one or more Models to generate and return Output in the form of sound recordings and embodied musical compositions based on Input. “Music” includes:
- the current version of ElevenLabs’ Music Service;
- all future versions, updates, and enhancements; and
- any functionality that integrates or builds upon ElevenLabs’ Music-related Models, including successors, derivatives, and variations thereof.
2. RESTRICTIONS. Without limiting the prohibitions set forth in the Prohibited Use Policy. Customer agrees to the following restrictions in connection with its use of Music:
(a) Prohibition on Creation of Commercial Music Libraries.
i. Customer may not use Music to generate songs for the purpose of compiling a commercial music library or repository.

iii. prescription pharmaceuticals or controlled substances;
iv. adult entertainment or pornographic content;
v. religious organizations or institutions; or
vi. political advocacy or campaigning (including for the benefit of any political party or candidate), electoral services or other political causes.
(c) Prohibited Inputs. Customer is expressly prohibited from submitting any of the following as part of the Input:
i. any artist’s (whether living or deceased) real name or stage name;
ii. any songwriter’s (whether living or deceased) real name or stage name;
iii. any song title;
iv. any album title;
v. any music publisher company’s name;
vi. any music label’s name; or
vii. a substantial or distinct portion of any song’s lyrics such that a reasonable person would determine the prompt was intended to reference a particular song.
(d) Infringement and Harmful Output.
i. Customer shall not prompt or induce Music to generate Output that is known or is reasonably likely to infringe any third party’s intellectual property or other protected rights.
ii. Customer must not deploy any Output that it knew or should have known would or is reasonably likely to infringe a third party’s intellectual property or other protected rights.
iii. Customer shall not use Music to generate Output that incites violence, promotes hate speech, glorifies sexual violence or exploitation of minors, is obscene or unlawful, or otherwise violates applicable law or regulation.
(e) Impersonation. Customer shall not prompt Music to generate Output that replicates or mimics the voice, likeness, or identifiable characteristics of any recording artist in a manner that is likely to be found misleading, confusing, or implies a false impression of association or endorsement.
3. DISCLAIMERS. Music is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise. To the fullest extent permitted by law, ElevenLabs expressly disclaims all warranties, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. ElevenLabs makes no representations or warranties that Music, or any content, materials or Output provided in connection with it, will be accurate, complete, reliable, current, secure, or error-free, or that access to Music will be uninterrupted or free of harmful components (including viruses or malicious code). Your use of Music is at your sole risk. You acknowledge that, due to the nature of machine learning, Output you generate using Music may not be unique and may be similar or identical to Output returned to other users. ElevenLabs does not guarantee the exclusivity of Output, and any responses generated for others shall not be considered your Output. You shall have no rights in or to such third-party output. All disclaimers in this section extend to and benefit ElevenLabs, its affiliates, licensors, suppliers, service providers, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns.
4. FEES. Customer acknowledges and agrees to the following with respect to its use of Music:
(a) Price Adjustments. ElevenLabs reserves the right to adjust its pricing from time to time, including changes to the fees charged and the applicable pricing structure. ElevenLabs will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Customer in advance of any such adjustments. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, any adjustments will take effect following the notice period specified by ElevenLabs.
(b) Variable Pricing. Pricing for Music may vary based on multiple factors, including Customer’s subscription plan, volume of usage, and the nature of the applicable use case.
(c) Third-Party Pass-Through Costs. ElevenLabs may pass through to Customer certain fees incurred in connection with Customer’s use of Music (or any specific versions, components, or features thereof), where such fees are attributable to ElevenLabs’ third-party licensors. ElevenLabs may, at its sole discretion and for a limited period of time, elect to absorb or waive such pass-through fees.
5. MODEL-SPECIFIC TERMS. Your access to and use of certain Music Models may be subject to additional terms, conditions, guidelines, policies or rules (“Model-Specific Terms”), which supplement and form part of these Service Terms. These Model-Specific Terms may vary by version or type of Music Model, and may include use case restrictions, licensing terms, or other model-specific obligations.
By using a Model Model covered by Model-Specific Terms, you agree to comply with those additional terms. In the event of conflict between these Model-Specific Terms and the Service Terms, the applicable Model-Specific Terms shall control solely with respect to your use of that particular Music Model.
