Alibaba's ath group launches HappyShrimp, a new AI music generation tool

Alibaba's ATH (TokenHub) business group has released HappyShrimp, a new AI application available on both iOS and Android platforms, updated to version 0.2.14 on the App Store. This launch marks the third installment in Alibaba's Happy Series, following the video generation model HappyHorse and the 3D interactive video model HappyOyster. HappyShrimp allows users to generate complete songs—including lyrics, composition, arrangement, and vocals—simply by describing desired emotions, stories, or musical styles in natural language. The tool supports two output modes, Smart Lyrics and Instrumental, and includes features like Music Recipe and Make a Similar Track for iterative creation. For pricing, the standard monthly membership in China is set at approximately 30 yuan, allowing for the generation of 150 songs, equating to roughly 0.2 yuan per track. International users can subscribe starting at $14.90 monthly, with credit packs beginning at $9.90. The platform also offers tiered options ranging from 89 yuan to 1,149 yuan for heavy users.
