The Mureka API v1 now supports all functionality of Mureka AI, including Pro subscription features, and for developers, that’s a big deal. Whether you're building a real-time AI music generator, integrating voice-to-melody tools into your app, or just looking to automate content creation with intelligent soundscapes, Mureka just made things a whole lot easier.
Let’s dive into what this new API update means, what it enables, and how you can make the most of it—whether you’re a hobbyist coder, a music app startup, or a full-stack dev inside a media-tech company.
What Is the Mureka API?
In simple terms, the Mureka API is the set of tools that lets you access Mureka AI’s core capabilities—from audio generation to melody transformation—through code. It’s RESTful, well-documented, and now, in version 1, feature-complete with the Mureka AI Pro subscription.
Before v1, certain features—especially the Pro-only ones like stem separation, batch generation, or genre transfer—were only available via the web app. Now, they’re API-accessible and programmable.
Key Features Now Available Through the Mureka API v1
The latest update isn’t just a facelift. It unlocks the full potential of Mureka AI, regardless of whether you’re using the app interface or coding on the backend.
1. Pro-Level Audio Generation
Previously exclusive to Pro users, you can now generate high-fidelity audio clips using precise musical parameters like:
Tempo
Key signature
Time signature
Mood (e.g., cinematic, funky, ambient)
Instrumental arrangement (e.g., synth-driven, guitar-led)
These are all accessible via endpoints like /generate/audio
with expanded config options.
2. Melody-to-Audio Transformation
Mureka’s melody2music feature has been a fan favorite. You hum, whistle, or upload a melody—and the AI composes a full arrangement around it. This feature is now fully open in the API via /compose/from-melody
.
Supports:
MP3/WAV input
Audio smoothing
Mood adaptation (lofi, upbeat pop, cinematic suspense, etc.)
3. Text-to-Music Composition
One of Mureka’s most experimental—but exciting—features is now API-enabled: natural language to music generation.
Sample request:
json{ "prompt": "a dreamy synth track for a sci-fi film opening", "length_seconds": 45}
The API returns a link to the AI-generated audio file, ready for download, remix, or streaming.
4. Batch and Scheduled Generation
New Pro-level API methods allow you to:
Queue up batch generation jobs
Schedule music generation tied to app events (e.g., trigger a loop for meditation every morning at 8AM)
Use callback URLs to automate your content pipeline
Perfect for meditation app developers, virtual concert platforms, or games.
How Developers Are Using the Mureka API v1 Today
Let’s talk real-world. Here’s how people are already integrating Mureka AI via the API:
1. Indie Game Studios
Creating dynamic soundtracks that change based on gameplay intensity, using Mureka’s prompt-based generation.
2. Music Therapy Platforms
