What Kits.AI does

Kits.AI, operated by Arpeggi Labs, Inc. and headquartered in San Francisco, is an AI audio platform built for music producers, vocalists, and independent creators. The platform centers on a library of 100+ royalty-free, licensed AI voice models and offers instant voice cloning from as little as 15-30 seconds of dry vocal audio, a Voice Designer for creating custom singing voices from scratch, and a suite of vocal processing tools including vocal removal, stem splitting, AI mastering, harmony generation (up to 7 voices), AI vocal repair, and an AI instrument library. Underlying technology is a proprietary diffusion transformer architecture paired with a singing-specific vocoder, advanced through an internal Kits Research function, with a flagship 'Kits VC' model and a hand-curated, consent-based training dataset certified by Fairly Trained.

The business operates on a freemium-to-subscription model with a free tier, paid plans starting at $10/month, and an advanced instant voice cloning tier starting at $14.99/month, distributed through a self-serve web platform (kits.ai and app.kits.ai), a downloadable desktop application, and a public developer API. Customer segments are horizontal, spanning professional and independent music producers, vocalists, content creators, and SMBs across the US, Spain, France, Brazil, South Korea, and India. In January 2026 Kits.AI was acquired by Splice, a music creation platform, integrating its licensed voice technology into Splice's broader creator ecosystem following Splice's Universal Music Group licensing deal.

Core offering

Kits.AI provides a web-based AI audio studio that lets music creators clone voices from short audio samples, apply 100+ royalty-free licensed voice models, generate vocal harmonies, isolate stems, master audio, and convert voice inputs into instrumental sounds. The platform is sold via a freemium subscription (free tier plus paid plans starting at $10/month) and complemented by a developer API for programmatic integration of voice conversion, blending, and vocal removal. An artist-facing revenue-share program (Kits Earn) lets vocalists monetize licensed voice models used by other creators.

Product overview

Kits.AI is a unified AI-powered voice production platform providing studio-quality audio tools for music producers and creators. The platform centers on an AI Voice Library of 100+ royalty-free voice models and offers voice cloning capabilities (Instant Voice Cloning for quick 15-30 second captures, and Professional Voice Cloning for higher fidelity). The platform's vocal processing suite includes Vocal Remover, Stem Splitter, AI Mastering, and AI Vocal Repair. Creative vocal tools encompass Harmony Generator (up to 4-part harmonies), Vocal Layers (up to 7 voices), Voice Designer (create voices from scratch), Voice Blending (combine voices), and Voice Variants (edit voice parameters). Additional tools include AI Instrument Library for converting voice to instruments, Key and BPM Finder, and Text-to-Speech. The Kits Earn program enables artist revenue-sharing. A public API allows developers to integrate these capabilities into external applications. In January 2026, Kits.AI was acquired by Splice.

Direct peers

• Boomy: AI music generation platform enabling users to create and distribute original songs quickly. Targets the same indie producer/creator segment as Kits but focuses on full-song generation rather than vocal tools.
• ElevenLabs: Leading AI voice generation and cloning platform serving creators, developers and enterprises. Most direct competitor to Kits' instant voice cloning and AI speaking voices, with significantly larger funding and broader language coverage.
• Udio: AI music generation startup producing high-fidelity songs with vocals from text. Competes with Kits for the same music creator audience and increasingly bundles vocal synthesis as part of end-to-end generation.
• Lovo AI: AI voice generation and cloning platform with a stock voice marketplace and developer API. Closely comparable to Kits' voice library + API combination for content creators and voiceover use cases.
• Voicemod: Real-time voice changer and AI voice platform for gamers, streamers and creators. Comparable to Kits' real-time voice conversion and blending features for consumer creator use cases.
• Resemble AI: Enterprise-focused voice cloning platform offering real-time synthesis and voice agents. Directly comparable in core capability (custom voice cloning) with stronger enterprise/SDK orientation.
• Suno: Generative AI music platform that creates full songs (including vocals) from text prompts. Overlaps with Kits' target user (indie producers and creators) and threatens the 'vocal-first' workflow that Kits optimises.
• Play.ht: AI voice generation and text-to-speech platform with API access for content creators and enterprises. Comparable to Kits' speaking voices, API distribution and developer tooling.

Broad incumbents

• iZotope: Established audio software maker (RX, Ozone, Neutron) used in professional music production. Comparable to Kits on the mastering, vocal repair and audio-quality toolset, but as a broader, incumbent DAW-adjacent suite.
• Splice: Parent company of Kits.AI following the January 2026 acquisition; leading sample, preset and music creation marketplace. Adjacent as both a distributor and potential substitute channel for AI-powered audio tools.
