Google Flow Music, running on the former Riffusion infrastructure
Flow Music is Google music product, deployed on the former Riffusion domain infrastructure, and it is the only system in this category that delivers output in mp3, wav and m4a plus separated stems across all four plans, free tier included. It carries no rank in our table because Google publishes no track-length specification and its current model has no row on any benchmark.
- downloads and stems on every plan
- from $6 a month
- Lyria 3.5 model

How Riffusion migrated onto Google infrastructure
Loading riffusion.com renders content titled Google Flow Music, and flowmusic.app serves the identical page. This finding is confirmed by two independent observations: the terms-of-use link on both domains resolves to policies.google.com, meaning this product operates under Google own terms of service; and the documentation link resolves to support.google.com/flow, an official Google help centre carrying eight articles.
One older trace remains in the structure and is notable in its own right: the flowmusic.app sitemap references the producer.ai domain, and the Artificial Analysis music benchmark still lists FUZZ rows under the creator name Producer.ai. The product migrated from a startup onto Google infrastructure without the legacy naming being cleaned up.
The plan architecture, and how it maps onto a Google AI subscription
Four plans are defined: Free with daily top-up credits, Starter at $6 with 3,000 monthly credits (documented as roughly 600 songs), Plus at $18 with 10,000, and Member at $48 with 30,000. Concurrent-generation capacity is defined as 2, 8, 12 and 16 respectively across the same tiers.
Like the Suno pricing page, this one defaults to the annual-billing view with a "save 25 percent" badge attached, so month-to-month billing costs more. That monthly figure is not published and has not been calculated here.
One detail the Google help centre documents that appears nowhere else: an existing Google AI subscriber pays nothing additional. The AI Plus subscription carries the benefits of the Starter plan, AI Pro carries those of Plus, and AI Ultra carries those of Member. For an existing subscriber, this system is effectively already provisioned at no extra cost.
The one specification implemented only here
The output file. In this category, Udio provides no download capability at all, and Suno enforces a monthly ceiling; Flow Music offers mp3, wav and m4a downloads across all four plans, plus separated-stem delivery, and the Google help centre even documents selecting multiple songs to receive them bundled as one zip file. For the use case of music laid under video, separated stems mean the drum level can be pulled down without regenerating the entire piece.
The system also generates music videos using the Veo model, and it runs a section called Spaces, where a text description specifies an instrument, a game or a plugin to be built. These are documented on the vendor own pages and have been reviewed, not operationally tested.
Why it carries no rank
Two of the table five columns are empty for this product, and the gap is not attributable to this platform. First, nowhere in Google documentation is the maximum length of a Flow Music track specified. Second, the model named on the home page is Lyria 3.5, and no such row exists on the Artificial Analysis music benchmarks.
The Lyria 3 Pro figure could have been substituted here. That was not done, because that model is the API variant and this is the consumer product, and borrowing a sibling-model score is precisely the error that undermines a benchmark table integrity. So it carries no rank, and the reason is documented.
From Iran
The Google help article specifies that the user must be located in one of the supported regions, and must also be eighteen or older. The link meant to display the region list resolves back to the same article. So the existence of a restriction is documented, and its exact contents are unknown. The Gemini country list has not been imported here either, because that list belongs to a different product.
Using it from Iran
This column carries a date and says how it was checked, because most listicles guess it. Where we have only read a vendor policy page, the note below says exactly that.
- Reachable
- not checked
- Payment
- not checked
- Free tier
- yes
- Measured on
How we checked: Google own help article specifies that usage requires being located in "one of our supported regions", and the link on that phrase resolves back to the same article. So a regional restriction is documented to exist, and the exact contents of the list are unknown. The country list for Gemini or the Google API is not a valid source for this product and has not been used here.
Documented strengths
- Downloads in three formats plus separated stems, on every plan including the free tier
- The cheapest entry point in this category, with no added cost for Google AI subscribers
- Music videos generated with the Veo model, inside the same workspace
- Official Google documentation, which is scarce in this category
Known weaknesses and limits
- No maximum track length is published anywhere.
- Its current model, Lyria 3.5, has no row on any benchmark, so quality is not comparable.
- The month-to-month price is not published and the page defaults to the annual rate.
- A regional restriction is in effect and the list of supported regions is not accessible.
- The plans page specifies nothing about commercial rights to the output.
Technical verdict
If the operating scope is music under video or under a podcast and the output file must be delivered, this is today the only system that implements that capability on every plan. If the selection criterion is vocal quality, the missing rank should be taken seriously: no row on a benchmark means no independent body outside Google has measured it, not that quality is low.
Frequently raised questions, with documented answers
Is Google Flow Music the same thing as Riffusion
They run on the same infrastructure. riffusion.com and flowmusic.app render one application, and the terms link on both resolves to policies.google.com. The current name on the page is Google Flow Music.
Can you download songs from Flow Music
Yes, in mp3, wav and m4a, plus separated stems, on all four plans including the free tier. Multiple songs can also be downloaded together as one zip file.
Do I pay again if I already subscribe to Google AI
No. The Google help centre specifies that AI Plus carries the Starter plan benefits, AI Pro carries the Plus benefits, and AI Ultra carries the Member benefits.
