HeyBop.ai is an AI music video generator for everyone, turning songs into beat-synced music videos. Here is how it works, what it costs and what you can do with the videos.
HeyBop.ai is an AI music video generator for everyone, turning songs into beat-synced music videos. You upload a song or paste its link (or make one in Music Lab), choose a look, and HeyBop writes a shot list from the song's structure, generates every scene with AI video models and cuts them on the beat. It runs in the browser at heybop.ai.

Yes. HeyBop.ai analyses the song's tempo, beats and sections before anything is generated, plans every scene on that beat grid and cuts on the beat — the chorus gets bigger, faster shots.

Yes. Every scene is its own shot — redo just that one and the rest of the video stays exactly as it is.
Export MP4 for TikTok, Reels, Shorts or YouTube. The free hook teaser reuses scenes you have already generated; it does not include free scene generation.
Professional supports your own photos after portrait verification, plus images checked without realistic human faces. Use Standard for other people or unverified portraits.
Start with cinematic, anime, K-pop, retro or another look, then direct the story, setting and individual shots in your own words. Bring your own song, photos and visual reference, or start with a sample song. Scenes are generated for your project, not selected from a stock-video library. Edit a scene’s prompt and camera move, then regenerate just that shot. Keep the scenes you love and pay only for the new generation. Failed generations return their credits automatically.
An AI music video generator is software that makes a music video from a song with generative AI. Instead of filming, it analyses the audio (tempo, beats, sections), plans a sequence of shots, generates each shot with a video model and edits them to the music. HeyBop.ai is an AI music video generator built around the beat grid, so every cut lands on the beat.
In four steps. Listen: it analyses the song's tempo, beats and sections and finds the hook. Shot list: an AI director writes one scene per slot on that beat grid, with the same characters, wardrobe, palette and lighting throughout. Shoot: each scene is generated by the AI video model that suits it — you never pick a model. Cut: the clips are trimmed to the beat, colour-graded as one film and exported with your song.
Everyone with a song and an idea — whether you are making your first video, a personal gift, a social post or a music release. No music or video production experience is needed. Artists, bands, producers and labels can use it too, from short hook videos to full music videos.

Yes. Upload MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, AAC, OGG — up to 200 MB in the studio (50 MB when you start on heybop.ai/create before signing up). Songs from any source you hold the rights to work, including tracks made with Suno. You need the rights to the song you upload.
Yes. Paste the song's link — Suno, YouTube, TikTok, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Google Drive, Dropbox or a direct link to the file — and HeyBop.ai fetches the song for you. A Suno song brings its lyrics along, so the captions follow them. Spotify and Apple Music don't hand out audio, so HeyBop finds the same recording on YouTube and shows you which one it used. Udio links can't be imported, because Udio has switched downloads off. When a platform refuses — Instagram gives the sound only to logged-in accounts and Vimeo locks its streams — upload the file instead. You need the rights to the song.
Yes. Music Lab writes and sings a full song with vocals from a prompt or your own lyrics (20 credits a song), and it goes straight into the video. You can also start from one of the free starter tracks made for HeyBop.
Yes. Beat sync is the core of HeyBop.ai. Before anything is generated, it detects the song's tempo, beats and sections; every scene is planned on that beat grid, every clip is trimmed to it and the final edit cuts on the beat. Choruses get bigger, faster shots; quiet parts get room.
Yes. Sing along turns chosen shots into performance shots: the character sings the song to camera, lip-synced to the vocals. Singing is included at the same duration and quality. A Standard shot is 70 credits for 6 seconds (120 for 10).

Professional supports your own photos after portrait verification, plus images checked without realistic human faces. Use Standard for other people or unverified portraits. Yes. Add up to 8 characters — people, pets or mascots — each from up to 3 photos (a character sheet counts as one).

Yes, optionally. Captions are timed to the vocals, can be edited before you render, and come in several caption styles.
Quality checks offer suggestions about individual shots and transitions. They do not block the finished video or start automatic replacements. You can watch, download and share it, then decide what to change. A technical generation failure returns that job’s credits or reserved free redo. A successful result with a quality note counts as completed. Sampled checks cannot guarantee every frame or lip movement; review the playing video.
Any platform that takes video. HeyBop.ai exports MP4 in 9:16 (1080×1920) for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, 16:9 (1920×1080) for YouTube, and 1:1 or 4:5 for Instagram and Facebook feeds, plus a free 15-second hook teaser export from scenes already generated in the project. Every video can also get a public share page with an embed.

For a 3-minute song with 6-second Standard shots and no reference photos, video generation is estimated at 1,490–2,120 credits, depending on chorus reuse.

Each project gets one free shot redo per complete 30 seconds of its approved video, with at least one. Redos become available once a shot has been generated successfully. Replace one shot at the same quality, duration and singing setting, including a shot inside a longer clip. Only a successful replacement uses a redo; generation errors return it. Earlier versions stay available. Redos stay with this project; exporting again or changing versions does not renew them. After they are used up, the next attempt shows its credit price before you start.
