ElevenLabs has launched a tool that lets users of its ElevenMusic platform edit and regenerate individual sections of a song without changing the rest of the track.
The feature, called Composer, was announced on Tuesday (August 25) and is available now.
It arrives 12 days after Suno released an upgraded version of its own production suite, and a month after Google added song editing to its Flow Music platform.
Tracks can be built from a user’s own lyrics, from an existing recording, from a text prompt, or from scratch, ElevenLabs said in a blog post.
A verse can then be rewritten, a bridge slowed, or a chorus moved into a different key, with the style, tempo, energy, instrumentation, and length of each section adjustable on its own, according to ElevenLabs.
“When you regenerate one section, the rest of your track stays untouched,” ElevenLabs said.
Users can also bring their own lyrics to any section of an ElevenMusic track and rewrite them at any point, regenerating only that part to hear the new words sung.
Composer produces several takes of a given section, which users can compare against each other before settling on one.
Song structure can be reordered in Composer too, with sections swapped, doubled, or extended as a track develops.
Composer moves ElevenLabs closer into competing with Suno.
Suno launched its browser-based digital audio workstation, Suno Studio, in September 2025, and released Studio 2.0 on August 13 with MIDI support, a chat bar in beta, and upgrades to stem separation.
Google arrived more recently. It added song generation and editing to Spaces, a tool housed within its Flow Music platform, on July 24, including the ability to replace sections and extend tracks.
Part of the capability was already in ElevenLabs‘ own model. Music v2, released on May 26, let users “select any section of a track and regenerate just that part,” with Composer building a dedicated editor around it.
ElevenLabs does not disclose subscriber numbers for ElevenMusic.
The company said in May that it had crossed $500 million in annual recurring revenue, up from $350 million at the end of 2025. It attributed that growth to enterprises deploying voice agents, rather than to music.
On the music side, ElevenLabs said in March that nearly 14 million tracks had been created on the platform since its debut, and in April that more than 4,000 indie and emerging artists were using it.
Suno publishes music-specific figures. CEO Mikey Shulman said in February that the platform had reached 2 million paid subscribers and $300 million in annual recurring revenue, and that over 100 million people had used it.
Udio does not publish user or subscriber figures.
ElevenLabs was valued at $11 billion in a Series D round announced in February that has now raised more than $550 million across three closes.
Suno was valued at $5.4 billion in June, more than doubling the $2.45 billion it reached in a $250 million Series C round in November 2025.
Composer is the latest in a run of ElevenMusic releases this year.
ElevenLabs shipped Mixes on June 18, Tools on July 2, Vocals on July 22, References on July 23, and a library of AI sounds and loops on August 13.
ElevenLabs also struck a partnership with Splice in May, under which the sample platform will use ElevenLabs‘ music models to build creative tools.
On licensing, ElevenLabs holds music agreements with Merlin, publisher Kobalt, and Believe.
Suno and Udio both launched without such deals and were sued by the major record companies for copyright infringement.
Udio has since settled with Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group, and has added agreements with Merlin, Kobalt, Believe, and the National Music Publishers’ Association.
Sony Music Entertainment is the only major yet to license Udio, and remains in litigation with the company.
The major filed a second suit against Udio on July 20, asserting 30,117 recordings.
Suno settled with WMG in November 2025 and licensed BMG on August 12, but remains in litigation with UMG and Sony Music.
ElevenLabs frames Composer as a way to make AI song creation work more like drafting and redrafting.Music Business Worldwide
