## About

AI-powered tool for composing and generating original music tracks

## Activity summary

Restricted for users in Syria. Community testing in March 2026 confirmed that core features work from Syria, including account creation and music generation, but upgrading to a paid plan fails because the payment provider cannot be reached from Syrian connections. No outreach to the company has been made yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-03-05 — Investigated. Community testing confirmed that Udio is accessible for core features but payment is blocked. The main website (udio.com) loads normally, account creation and sign-in work, song generation completes successfully (tested with a classical piece about Damascus), and generated songs can be shared publicly. However, attempting to upgrade triggers a Stripe checkout at payment.udio.com, which returns a "Something went wrong" error indicating the payment provider cannot be reached from Syria. This is consistent with Stripe blocking transactions from Syrian IPs. Status updated from unknown to restricted.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025.
