At first glance, Tad.ai offers a promising platform for creating AI-generated music. With the ability to generate complete songs in a variety of styles, it brings another option into the growing field of AI-powered music tools. However, after spending some time experimenting with it, my impression is that it’s still in its early stages, with some room to grow before it becomes a serious contender.
One of Tad.ai’s standout features is the ability to enter your own lyrics and meta tags, allowing for a degree of customization. You can also adjust a “mood” parameter, which adds an interesting layer of variation to your tracks. This is a feature I haven’t seen widely implemented in other platforms. It gives users a bit more control over the feel of the song, though it’s still limited by the available styles, which as of now, include a dozen or so predefined genres.
The process of generating a song takes several minutes—longer than I expected, but manageable for anyone not in a rush. The styles, though varied, feel somewhat constrained by their preset nature, offering limited flexibility for those of us who enjoy experimenting with more niche genres or creating unique hybrid sounds.
As for the quality of the output, I found the tracks a bit on the bland side. That’s not to say they were terrible—far from it—but they reminded me of the kind of generic background music you might hear in an AI-generated track. It’s not unlike other similar AI platforms in that respect, though the overall experience felt less polished compared to my work with Suno AI.
Suno’s platform remains my go-to, largely because of its ability to better capture the subtle flow and organic feeling I strive for in my music. While Tad.ai provides a fun and accessible way to generate full songs, it hasn’t reached the point where I would consider switching platforms. Still, it’s early days for Tad.ai, and it could evolve into something much more dynamic in the future.
For those just starting out in AI music creation or looking for another tool to experiment with, Tad.ai is worth keeping an eye on. It’s another step in the development of AI music, offering a range of styles and the intriguing ability to influence mood. But for now, I’ll be sticking with what’s worked best for Blind Mime Ensemble: Suno AI. That said, I’ll definitely keep monitoring Tad.ai’s progress—it has the potential to become a more robust tool as it evolves.
In a rapidly expanding space like AI music creation, new platforms are always interesting to explore. If Tad.ai continues to refine its sound and expand its stylistic options, it could become a powerful tool in the years ahead. Keep an ear open!
