How much does a custom song cost?
Short answer: anywhere from $5 to about $300, and the gap is mostly about who writes it and how fast you need it. We sell one of these, so treat us as interested. We have still tried to write the version we would want to read.

Custom song prices in 2026, the full ladder
Roughly: AI-written songs run $4 to $50. Mid-tier services with a human touch land around $50 to $150. A real songwriter recording a real performance is $150 to $300 and up. Wedding and commercial commissions go past that, sometimes well past.
What actually changes the price
Three things. Whether a human writes and performs it, how fast you need it, and how many revisions you get. Speed is the sneaky one. Some services charge nearly double for a 24-hour turnaround versus a 30-day one, for exactly the same song.
What you get for $5
Ours. A full song about a specific person, their name sung in it, in one of sixty-plus styles, up to five versions, delivered in minutes with an MP3 and a lyric video. It is written and performed by AI, steered by a real prompt system we spend a lot of time on.
When a $200 human songwriter is worth it
Honestly, sometimes it is. If you want a real acoustic performance for a first dance, a specific vocalist, live instrumentation, or something you will still be playing at an anniversary in twenty years, pay the money. That is a different product from what we make, and it should cost more.
How much is a personalized song gift, really
For a gift, the useful comparison is not other songs. It is the $6 card you would have bought instead. That is the frame we designed around, and it is why the number is five.
Questions
Why do custom songs cost $100 to $300?
Because a person is writing, performing, and producing it, and that is a real day of skilled work. The price is mostly labour, plus a premium if you need it quickly.
Is a $5 custom song any good?
It is a real, full-length, produced song with their name sung in it. It is not a live acoustic performance by a session musician. If it does not land, you get your money back, which is the most honest answer we can give.
What is the difference between AI and human custom songs?
Speed, price, and performance. AI gets you something good in minutes for a few dollars. A human gets you something crafted in a few days for a few hundred, with a real voice and real instruments behind it.
What about the free options?
Yes, and they are worth trying if what you want is a name inserted into a template. They are a different thing from a written song about a specific person, and they generally sound like it.
What is included at $5?
The song, up to five versions, a shareable link, an MP3, and a lyric video. No subscription and no upsell.
