An intro sting has one job and only a few seconds to do it: announce that something is starting, leave a small memorable mark, and get out of the way. There's no room for a verse or a build that takes its time, it has to arrive, make its statement and resolve cleanly, ready for a voice or a title to follow.
The prompt below is shaped for that short, decisive shape. Generate it here on your choice of model, then trim it to the exact few seconds your opener or sign-off needs.
What makes a good intro-sting prompt
Ask for it to 'build and resolve cleanly' in a few seconds, and give it a single 'memorable melodic motif' rather than a full melody, a short, distinctive figure is what people will associate with your channel or show. Keep the mix 'clean and uncluttered' so it doesn't clash with a voiceover that follows, and pick a mood that matches your brand, from polished and corporate to warm and friendly.
Intro versus outro
For an intro, ask for 'rising, building, resolves into a bright chord' so it leads forward into the content. For an outro, flip it to 'gentle wind-down, settles and fades' so it signals an ending. Keep the same melodic motif across both and you get a matched pair that bookends every episode consistently.
Start from a sting you admire
If another show's opener has the feel you want, reverse a clip of it. The tool detects the tempo and key and infers the mood and instrumentation, giving you a prompt grounded in that reference. Edit it into something original and your own before generating, so your sting is distinct rather than a copy.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this free?
- The prompt and editing tools are free; generating a sting here runs on credits, on licensed, commercially cleared models.
- How long should an intro sting be?
- Usually 3 to 8 seconds, long enough to register, short enough not to delay the content. The starter prompt resolves in about five seconds; ask for shorter or longer and trim to taste.
- Can I use the music commercially?
- Yes, we generate on licensed, commercial-cleared models (ElevenLabs, Google Lyria), so an intro or outro for a monetised video or podcast is cleared for commercial use.
