Which AI video generators can add sound?
Last verified 2026-10-10Paid placement never changes our picks.
Short answer
As of October 2026, start with Google Veo in Flow if you want dialogue, effects and ambient sound generated with the picture, Dreamina if you want Seedance video with music, effects and lip sync, and Luma if you want several audio-capable models under one subscription. The main catch: audio support varies by model and plan, so confirm it before paying.

Prices come from each tool's fact block. "See pricing page" means we have not confirmed the number on the official pricing page in the last 30 days, so we do not show one.
How to choose
- If you want sound generated together with the clip → Google Veo (Google states native dialogue, effects and ambience), Dreamina's Seedance models or PixVerse (its site states native audio).
- If you already have a silent clip and want to add sound → Runway or Pika (both sell separate music, voice and sound-effect tools; their pages do not say the video models output audio).
- If you want to compare audio-capable models without new accounts → Luma (Plus is $30 a month and lists Veo, Kling and Seedance options, with audio costing extra credits).
- If you already pay for a Google AI plan → try Veo in Flow first (Flow credits come with Google AI plans; the free plan has only limited Flow access).
- If the video includes a real person's voice → use only voices you have consent for, and check each plan's watermark and commercial licence before publishing.

Where sources disagree
- Native sound vs add-on audio tools: Veo, Seedance and PixVerse describe sound generated with the video; Runway and Pika sell audio as separate tools. Roundups often blur the two.
- Kling audio: Kling's homepage calls its latest model audio-visual but does not say native audio outright; Luma's model table shows audio for an earlier Kling version.
- Which Veo you get: Google's plan page lists video generation from AI Plus upward but not the Veo version per plan; one fact check found the newest Veo tied to Ultra.
- OpenAI Sora: Sora is often listed for video with sound, but OpenAI is discontinuing it per press reports, so it is not a pick.
