Developers adding sound, music or voice to video apps must join a $10-a-month API club first, then pay per use.

Kenning's take

What it does

Pika Audio is Pika's first set of audio models, announced in August 2026. Pika Soundtrack adds synced sound to video, Pika Music makes songs from prompts and lyrics, Pika SFX makes sound effects, and Pika Speech turns text into speech with preset or cloned voices. At launch they were available only through the Pika API Club, a paid developer membership.

• Pika Soundtrack, video to synced sound and music
• Pika Music, songs from prompts, lyrics and reference tracks
• Pika SFX, sound effects from text
• Pika Speech, text to speech with voice cloning
• Pay-as-you-go API pricing

Who it suits. Developers and creators who want low-cost generated sound, music and voice in their apps or videos.
