An AI cover is a new version of an existing song made with AI tools. Most often the vocal is sung by a generated voice, and the visuals around the track are generated from a prompt. VEED covers the second part: you bring the cover audio you made and have the rights to, and the platform builds the music video, the lyric captions and a spoken intro in your own cloned voice.

How do I make an AI cover with VEED?

Making an AI cover video takes three steps. Upload the cover track you recorded or produced, write a short prompt that describes the visuals and pick an aspect ratio, then generate. Download the clip, or open it in the editor to add lyric captions and an intro in your cloned voice before you export for TikTok, Shorts or YouTube.

Can I make an AI cover with a famous artist's voice?

Cloning a real artist's voice without permission raises copyright and publicity rights issues, and video platforms can take those covers down. VEED's voice cloning clones your own voice only: you read a consent script on screen, and the terms of use prohibit impersonation and audio deepfakes. Record the cover in your own voice, then use the clone for spoken intros and outros.

What's the difference between an AI cover and an AI-generated song?

An AI cover reworks a song that already exists, so the melody and lyrics belong to the original writer and the new part is the performance or the visuals. An AI-generated song is original from the first note, made from a text prompt. On VEED, the AI music generator writes original tracks, and the AI cover flow turns a cover you already have into a video you can post.

How much does it cost to make an AI cover on VEED?

VEED's AI cover generator runs on AI credits. You can sign up without a credit card. The credit cost depends on how many videos you generate, and you see it on the generate button before you commit. Editing the clip afterward is on the free plan, and some export options need a paid plan. Visit the [VEED pricing page](https://www.veed.io/pricing) for current plans and credit add-ons.

How do you make an AI cover of a song for TikTok?

AI covers on TikTok are vertical clips, usually the chorus, with the lyrics on screen. Upload your cover, write a prompt for the visuals, choose 9:16 and generate. Open the clip in the editor, add captions styled in your colors, trim to the hook, and export. Reuse the same project for Reels and Shorts, and switch to 16:9 for a YouTube upload.

Turn your cover song into a post-ready music video

An AI cover is a new version of an existing song made with AI tools, usually with a generated voice on the vocal or generated visuals around the track. VEED handles the video side of an AI cover: upload the cover audio you recorded or produced, describe the look you want, and the platform builds a clip that matches the mood of the song.

Singers, producers and fan editors post AI covers to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Reels and YouTube, where a cover travels as a video, not an audio file. Add lyric captions, record a spoken intro in your own voice with AI voice cloning, and export at the ratio each platform expects. Use a song you hold the rights to perform and share.

How to make an AI cover:

Step 01

Upload your cover track

Start a project and upload the cover you recorded or produced, as audio or as a video with sound. Keep it to the section you want on screen, such as the chorus. Use a song you have the rights to perform and share.

Step 02

Describe the visuals and pick a ratio

Write a short prompt for the look: a neon city at night, a hand-drawn animation, a lo-fi bedroom scene. Choose 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, or 16:9 for YouTube, then hit generate. The visuals follow the mood of your track.

Step 03

Polish it and export

Download the clip as is, or open it in the editor to add lyric captions with the auto subtitle generator, a spoken intro in your cloned voice, and your handle on screen. Export once per platform and post.

From a cover track to a finished music video in minutes

A cover on its own is an audio file. Paired with visuals, it is a post. Upload the track, describe the scene, and get a clip sized for TikTok, Reels, Shorts or YouTube, with lyric captions and your name on screen, in minutes rather than an evening in a timeline.

Visuals that match your version of the song

The prompt is the design. Describe the mood, the palette and the pace, generate, and re-prompt until the scene fits the way you sang it. Drop in your own footage or photos where you want them, pull your fonts and colors from Brand Kit, and the result looks like it came from you, not from a template.

One place for every cover you post

Make the full video with the AI music video generator, or score an original track with the AI music generator when you want something that is yours from the first note. Then subtitles, a voice intro, a thumbnail and a vertical cut for each platform, all in the same project.
