Suno Inc. Raises $250M in Series C Funding for AI-Generated Music

Suno Inc., a Massachusetts-based startup behind a leading AI music-generation service, has secured a $250 million Series C funding round at a valuation of about $2.45 billion. The company offers a freemium model that allows users to generate custom tracks with specified lyrics, genre, and instrument cues, then monetises via subscription tiers and DAW-style “Suno Studio” editing tools.

This latest round signals strong investor conviction in the burgeoning generative-AI music category and Suno’s ability to monetise creative workflows.

Founded in 2022 by former Meta and TikTok executives, Suno has tried to position itself as a tool that gives creators more room to experiment, not a platform meant to replace human artists. Whether the industry agrees is an open question. What is clear is that AI-generated music is moving at a speed that’s forcing everyone — labels, artists, platforms, and investors — to rethink what a song is and how future catalogs will be built.

Funding Details:

• Startup: Suno Inc.

• Investors: Menlo Ventures (lead), Hallwood Media, Lightspeed, Nvidia’s NVentures

• Amount Raised: $250 million

• Total Raised: Not publicly disclosed
