The AI music market is exploding. Suno just hit $300M ARR. Udio raised $10M. Every content creator, game developer, and video editor wants AI-generated audio — and they want it now.
But building your own music generation pipeline? That means GPU servers, model hosting, ffmpeg pipelines, and weeks of engineering. What if you could add AI music generation to your app with a single API call?
That's exactly what PixelAPI (https://pixelapi.dev (https://pixelapi.dev/)) now offers.
What You Can Generate
PixelAPI uses Meta's MusicGen model to create audio from text descriptions:
• Background music for videos, reels, and ads
• Podcast intros and outros
• Game soundtracks and ambient audio
• Sound effects for apps and games
• Lo-fi beats, orchestral scores, electronic tracks — any genre

)
gen_id = resp.json()["generation_id"]
while True:
result = requests.get(f"https://api.pixelapi.dev/v1/image/{gen_id}", headers=headers).json()
if result["status"] == "completed":
print(f"🎵 Audio ready: {result['output_url']}")
break
elif result["status"] == "failed":
print(f"❌ Failed: {result.get('error')}")
break
time.sleep(3)
JavaScript:
const resp = await fetch('https://api.pixelapi.dev/v1/audio/generate', {

headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_KEY',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: JSON.stringify({ prompt: 'epic orchestral trailer music', duration: 20 })

const { generation_id } = await resp.json();
// Poll /v1/image/{generation_id} for result
