AIVA requires an active internet connection to generate music, which can be a hindrance in environments with unreliable or limited network access.

Expensive at scale for extensive projectshigh

Pricing tiers are based on usage and become prohibitively expensive for large-scale production or frequent use, such as in game development where multiple tracks may be needed.
