  • AI Playlist Generator, powered by ChatGPT, enables creators to enter text prompts to generate playlists of copyright-free music they can use in their content.
  • Uppbeat is the first to market with this game-changing AI feature as it aims to further establish Uppbeat as the leading free music platform for creators.
  • AI Playlist Generator addresses the concerns of copyright infringement among generative AI programs and enables creators to harness AI to find real music.


30 May 2023
Uppbeat, the leading freemium music platform for creators, today announces the launch of its AI Playlist Generator. Powered by ChatGPT, this innovative feature marks a significant milestone in the music licensing space by giving content creators total freedom to find suitable music, using natural language prompts.

With the AI Playlist Generator, creators can describe their video, a specific scene, or a sound with prompts like “Jay Z meets Guns N’ Roses” or “if Godzilla made music.” The AI feature will then curate a playlist of the most relevant tracks from Uppbeat's extensive catalog of copyright-free music.

This first-to-market feature is designed to streamline the creative process, speeding up the age-old pain-point of finding the perfect music. Now creators can simply describe their scene or a reference to get suitable music recommendations and all without concern of copyright issues or demonetization of their videos.

The AI boom is driving demand from creators for AI-driven tools to enhance their creative process. However, the prevalence of copyright and quality issues in true generative AI music, from services like Google’s MusicLM, has previously limited AI’s impact on music.

The AI Playlist Generator tackles these challenges head-on by drawing exclusively from Uppbeat's world-class catalog of copyright-free music. By leveraging the power of ChatGPT, Uppbeat has successfully harnessed AI technology to take any prompt and generate an always on-point playlist of real music.

This groundbreaking new feature exemplifies how the creative industries can exist in harmony with AI at a time when it poses significant threat. Uppbeat is 100% committed to both its industry-leading artist catalog and its community of over 1.3 million content creators. The AI Playlist Generator is designed to empower creators and provide total freedom to produce outstanding content using world-class, real music.

Lewis Foster, CEO, Uppbeat says: “Our creative industries are evolving in astonishing ways thanks to recent AI innovations. I’m delighted for Uppbeat to join this exciting AI movement with the launch of our AI Playlist Generator.

“ChatGPT is spearheading this incredible AI boom. We were quick to explore ways we can incorporate this powerful technology with Uppbeat to revolutionise the way creators source music for their content and streamline their creative process.

“Generative AI music is rife with copyright and overall quality issues. Our catalog is full of incredible artists and AI doesn’t come close. But, we asked ourselves, “What if we can use AI to help creators pinpoint the perfect copyright-free music for their content?”

“This ‘What if?’ moment has evolved into our game-changing AI Playlist Generator and I’m excited to share it with the world. We believe it promises to positively impact the way creators soundtrack their content with AI. Give it a try!”
