Shutterstock offers AI-generated, royalty-free music through technology acquired from Amper Music in 2020. Users can generate original music tracks by selecting genre, mood, and instrumentation, without any musical training required.

Shutterstock acquired Amper Music in November 2020 to strengthen its capabilities in AI-powered music creation and content search, with Amper's technology enabling users to create and customize original music using over one million individual audio samples recorded across thousands of unique instruments. Amper's standalone creation tool has since been folded into Shutterstock's platform, and users can access over 100,000 exclusive Amper-generated tracks directly from Shutterstock. he music library has also been licensed to OpenAI as training data under Shutterstock's expanded 2023 partnership.
