What Suno Announced
On October 1, 2026, Suno announced Speech (beta) in a company blog post by chief product officer Jack Brody, after a month of private testing with all users. The company describes it as the first audio model that generates voice and music together as one cohesive track, in a single take — not narration stitched over a separate score.
Simple Mode and Advanced Mode
Simple mode writes the words for you from a one-line description — Suno's own example is "a pirate captain rallying his crew." Advanced mode performs your custom script verbatim, with controls for voice gender, speaking style, and take-to-take variety. A toggle switches the music off entirely, so the same model doubles as plain text-to-speech.
- Simple mode: describe the idea in one line — Suno writes the words and scores them
- Advanced mode: paste your exact script, pick voice gender, speaking style, and variety
- Music toggle: keep the score or switch it off for plain text-to-speech
- Track length: up to about eight minutes per generation
Where to Find It
Speech lives in Suno's Create tab on web, iOS, and Android — a Suno release note dated October 1, 2026 tags it for all four surfaces. This is Suno's first product beyond song generation, framed by the company as a move into "creative entertainment."
