Staccato writes MIDI rather than audio, which is the distinction that matters to anyone actually producing. Create generates from a prompt, Accompany adds parts to what you have, Rewrite alters it and Extend continues it, up to 16 tracks and 32 bars, dragged straight into any DAW.
MIDI keeps the output editable, assignable to whatever instrument you want and yours to change bar by bar, where a generated audio stem is a finished thing you either use or discard. The company also says it trained on music theory rather than mainstream songs, which is a defensible answer to the provenance question hanging over generative music.
Basic is $11.99 a month for personal use, Pro is $14.99 with commercial rights and a $4.99 first month, a one-time purchase covers updates to 2029, and a three-month free trial is available by booking a call. Commercial use is gated behind Pro, the trial requires a sales call rather than a signup, and generated MIDI is a starting point that still needs arranging.
