FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you want to know about SongRise.
Recording
What do I sing for the recording?
Anything you want. Your favorite song, a lullaby, a hymn, something you made up. SongRise needs to hear your voice, not a specific song. Sing whatever feels comfortable.
How long is the recording?
60 seconds. That gives SongRise enough to learn your vocal tone, pitch, and style. You will see a timer counting down while you record.
Does my singing quality matter?
Not at all. Sing off-key, forget the words, hum. SongRise captures your voice, not your singing ability. The finished song will be polished and on-pitch. Your voice, but better.
Can I re-record if I don't like my first take?
Yes. You can re-record as many times as you want before submitting. Once you submit, SongRise learns your voice. You can also record a new voice sample later if you want to start fresh.
Songs
How long does it take to get my song?
About 60 seconds after you submit your recording. SongRise writes personalized lyrics based on your goals, composes the music, and produces the final song in your voice. You get two variations to choose from.
What genres are available?
Pop, R&B, Acoustic, Lo-fi, Gospel, and Jazz. Each genre carries a different mood. Pop for energy, Acoustic for quiet mornings, Lo-fi for winding down. You can try the same affirmation in different genres to find what resonates.
Can I choose the lyrics?
You choose the affirmation theme (confidence, self-love, gratitude, calm, etc.) and SongRise writes lyrics personalized to that theme. The lyrics are structured as a real song with verses and a chorus. Custom lyrics are on the roadmap.
Can I share my songs?
Yes. Every song has a shareable link. You can also download the MP3 and share it however you want. Post it on TikTok, send it to a friend, add it to a playlist.
How long are the songs?
Songs are typically 2 to 3 minutes long. Long enough to feel like a real song. Short enough to listen to during a morning routine or commute.
How is this different from regular affirmation apps?
Other apps play spoken affirmations in a generic voice, or whisper subliminal text over ambient music. SongRise creates real, produced songs with actual music and lyrics, sung in YOUR voice. Hearing yourself sing your affirmations activates both brain hemispheres and bypasses your skepticism filters.
Voice & Privacy
Is my voice recording safe?
Yes. Your recording is encrypted in transit and at rest. It is stored on private, encrypted cloud storage. We never sell your voice data, use it for training, or share it with third parties. Your recording is used only to create your songs.
Who hears my recording?
Only you. Your recording is used to create your songs and nothing else. No human ever listens to it. No one at SongRise has access to the raw audio.
Can I delete my voice data?
Yes. You can delete your voice recording and all associated data from your account settings at any time. Deletion is permanent and immediate.
Billing
How much does SongRise cost?
A single song is $2.99 (one-time). Monthly unlimited is $7.99/month. Annual unlimited is $49.99/year (saves 48%). All plans include a free 10-second preview before you pay.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. Record your voice and get a free 10-second preview of your first song. No credit card required. You only pay when you want to unlock the full song.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel your subscription anytime from your account settings. You keep access until the end of your billing period, and every song you already have is yours to keep forever.
What happens to my songs if I cancel?
Every song you already have is yours forever. You can download them as MP3 files before or after canceling. They stay in your library as long as your account exists.
Do you offer refunds?
Web purchases can be refunded within 7 days if you have not created any songs during that billing period. Single song purchases are non-refundable once the song has been created. App Store purchases follow Apple's refund policy.
Technical
What devices work with SongRise?
SongRise works in any modern web browser on your phone, tablet, or computer. Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge are all supported. A native mobile app is coming soon.
Do I need a microphone?
Your device's built-in microphone works fine. Phones, laptops, and tablets all have microphones that capture enough vocal detail. A quiet room helps, but is not required.
Can I use SongRise offline?
Creating songs requires an internet connection. But you can download your songs as MP3 files and listen offline in any music player.
