How it works
Four steps. The first three are free, so you know exactly what you're buying before you buy it.
- 1
Tell us about themFree
Their name, dog or cat, what they're like, and what you want the song to say. Four short fields — it takes under a minute.
- 2
Hear the songFree
We write the lyrics, then compose and record an original song. It arrives in about a minute. Don't like it? Rewrite it. As many times as you want.
- 3
Add one photoFree
One clear, front-on photo of their face. We check it immediately and tell you whether it will work — before you spend anything.
- 4
They sing it$9.99
We animate your photo to the song and send you a 15-second vertical video in 1080p, no watermark. Takes a few minutes; we email you when it's ready.
What makes a good photo
This matters more than anything else. The video inherits whatever the photo gives it.
- Face the camera — front-on photos work best
- Get close: their face should fill a good part of the frame
- A slightly open mouth helps the singing look natural
- One pet per photo
- Bright, sharp, unblurred
JPG or PNG, under 5 MB. Photos with human faces are rejected automatically — see our Acceptable Use Policy.
Common questions
Why is the song free but the video isn't?
Generating a song costs us a fraction of a cent. Generating video costs real money per second. So we let you iterate on the song as much as you like, and charge only when you commit to the video.
How accurate is the lip sync?
Their mouth opens and moves with the singing, and their head moves to the rhythm. It won't form human vowel shapes — dogs and cats don't have lips for that. What you get is a pet who convincingly appears to be singing.
Can I use my own song?
No. The original song is the point — it's what makes the video specifically about your pet. It also keeps everyone clear of music copyright.
What if the photo doesn't work?
We tell you before you pay. If we can't find a clear animal face, or we detect a human face, we'll ask for a different photo.
Free until you order the video. Questions? hello@singingtails.com
