Zona asks you to read and record, then turns your voice into a personalized song. It also writes lyrics that match your mood and exports high-quality audio. Hitz AI never asks you to sing. You bring the idea or the words, choose the sound, and a lead vocal, a duet or an instrumental comes back finished.

Your voice or a finished vocal
If you want to hear yourself on the track, Zona is built for that and does it well. Many people would rather not sing, though, and some songs are better sung by someone else: a birthday song for a friend, a love song, a diss track for the group chat. Hitz AI gives you a female lead, a male lead or a duet, and a choice of four models for how the song is performed.
Which one is for you
Pick Zona if singing it yourself is the point.
Pick Hitz AI if you want a finished vocal in any of 21 genres or your own custom style, two takes per song, and a built-in iMessage extension.

Questions
Do I have to sing in Hitz AI?
