Flexible stem separation with web, app, plugin, and API access.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
LALAL.AI is an AI audio-processing platform for musicians, producers, DJs, podcasters, video editors, and other media professionals. Its Stem Splitter separates audio and video into vocals, instrumentals, drums, bass, guitars, piano, synthesizer, strings, and wind instruments. Users can preview results, compare selectable neural networks, choose output formats, and use vocal de-echo and reverb reduction. The platform is available on the web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, through a VST3-compatible plugin, and via an enterprise API.
Pricing is structured as a free Starter plan and two paid annual-billing tiers. Starter is always free and includes 10 minutes in the Relaxed Queue, a 200 MB upload limit per file, and free result previews, while full downloads are unavailable. Lite costs $7.50 per month when billed annually and adds unlimited Relaxed Queue minutes, 90 Fast Queue minutes per month, 2 GB uploads per file, result downloads, and batch processing. Pro costs $15 per month when billed annually and raises the Fast Queue allowance to 250 minutes per month while retaining the other Lite features. Paid plans suit recurring production work; Starter is better for previewing the service.
Its main strength is breadth across workflows. Audio and video uploads, selectable output formats including MP3, OGG, AAC, AIFF, WAV, and FLAC, and batch processing support practical production tasks. The VST plugin enables local offline stem separation in compatible DAWs, including Ableton Live, Reaper, and Audacity, while the API supports enterprise integrations. LALAL.AI is a strong fit for users who need flexible access across devices and environments. Those seeking full downloads, batch processing, or larger uploads should choose a paid tier rather than relying on Starter.
