ElevenLabs said on Thursday that songs made with its ElevenMusic platform can now be published straight to SoundCloud, removing the need to download tracks and upload them separately.
The integration gives the London-based audio AI company a route to listeners outside its own app at a time when most large streaming services are moving the other way, building tools to label, filter or ban AI-generated music. SoundCloud described itself as the first platform to bring ElevenMusic creations to fans beyond ElevenLabs' own ecosystem.
Songs posted from ElevenLabs to SoundCloud will be labelled as AI-made. As part of the deal, SoundCloud Artist Pro subscribers will receive three months of ElevenMusic Pro, a tier that allows up to 1,000 songs a month, 500 stem splits and five custom styles or vocals.
"SoundCloud has always been a place where artists experiment, push boundaries, and turn creative ideas into something bigger," SoundCloud chief executive Eliah Seton said in a statement. "By becoming the first platform to bring ElevenMusic creations directly to fans beyond its own ecosystem, we're opening up new possibilities for artists to experiment, share their work, and build an audience."
ElevenLabs released its first music-generation model in 2025 and launched a consumer app for prompt-based song creation in April 2026. A month later it shipped a newer model that can change genre mid-track and handle more complex vocals. The company says users have created more than 25 million tracks with its music models.
SoundCloud has been signing up several AI music partners. Last month it linked with Moises, which lets artists pull tracks from SoundCloud for stem separation and remixing and then republish them; that integration runs in both directions, while the ElevenLabs link is a one-way publishing route. SoundCloud also has integrations with Google Flow Music and the remix platform Hook. Its policies encourage users subject to EU rules to label tracks as "AI-generated or manipulated" and prohibit impersonation.
Rivals have been more cautious. Deezer is introducing a setting that lets listeners filter out AI music entirely, Bandcamp has banned AI-generated tracks, and Spotify and YouTube have focused on labelling. Spotify works with ElevenLabs on audiobooks, letting authors generate narration with its voice models and publish it on the service, and it has signed deals with record labels for AI remix products, but it has not named a music-model partner.
The SoundCloud tie-up tests whether there is a listening audience for AI-made songs, not just people making them. ElevenLabs did not say how many of its 25 million tracks have been shared publicly, and neither company disclosed financial terms of the partnership.
