Article Song por AndrewKR

ArticleSong transforms any web article into an original AI-generated song! Choose from multiple musical styles and listen within minutes.

Requires a SunoAPI key from sunoapi.org to function. Optional Anthropic API key enhances lyrics quality. The author of this extension is not affiliated with Suno or sunoapi.org in any way.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. Navigate to any article on the web
2. Click the ArticleSong extension icon
3. Choose your preferred song style:
- Musical (Broadway-style theatrical)
- Spoken Word (hip-hop/poetry)
- Meme Song (internet culture humor)
- Cute (kawaii/upbeat pop)
- Informative (educational/documentary)
- Or use the article text directly as lyrics
4. The extension extracts the article content using Mozilla's Readability library
5. Lyrics are generated (via SunoAPI or optionally via Anthropic Claude for enhanced quality)
6. SunoAPI forwards your request to Suno.ai for professional music generation
7. Start listening in ~40 seconds via streaming, full download ready in 2-3 minutes

KEY FEATURES:
✓ Streaming playback - Audio starts in 30-40 seconds, no waiting for full generation
✓ High-quality downloads - Save completed songs as MP3 files
✓ Multi-request tracking - Generate multiple songs simultaneously
✓ Complete history - Review all your previously generated songs
✓ Persistent audio player - Injected at the top of webpages for easy access
✓ Progress indicators - Real-time status updates during generation
✓ Cancellation support - Stop generation if you change your mind
✓ Works on any readable webpage - News articles, blog posts, Wikipedia, and more

TECHNICAL FLOW:
Article Text → Lyrics Generation (SunoAPI or Anthropic) → SunoAPI → Suno.ai → Your Song!

REQUIREMENTS:
• SunoAPI key (REQUIRED) - Get yours at sunoapi.org. This intermediary service connects to Suno.ai for music generation. Pricing varies by plan.
• Anthropic API key (OPTIONAL) - For enhanced lyrics via Claude (~$0.10 per song). Without this, SunoAPI generates lyrics directly (still produces great results!).

PRIVACY & SECURITY:
• No data collection or tracking by this extension
• All API keys stored locally in your browser (encrypted by Firefox)
• No external servers operated by us
• Extension makes direct API calls on your behalf
• Song history stored locally only
• Open source code available for inspection

PERFECT FOR:

WHAT MAKES THIS SPECIAL:
Unlike text-to-speech readers, ArticleSong creates actual music with melody, rhythm, and style. Each generation is unique and tailored to your chosen musical genre. The streaming feature means you don't have to wait - start listening while the high-quality version is still being generated.
