- Suno raised a $400 million Series D round, valuing the company at $5.4 billion.
- Universal Music Group, Sony, and GEMA sued Suno for training its AI on copyrighted songs, amending their complaint to add over 61,000 additional works beyond the original 560.
- Warner Music Group settled with Suno and secured a licensing deal in November.
- Suno reports users generate more than 7 million songs per day and the app remains near the top of the App Store music charts.
- Bond Capital led the Series D round, with participation from IVP, Forerunner, Union Square Ventures, Alkeon, and Quiet, alongside existing investors.
Why it matters: Suno gains massive capital and a higher valuation, enabling further product development, while music labels continue legal battles that could shape licensing norms for AI‑generated songs.
