A Youka alternative for artists releasing their own songs
Youka is a karaoke maker: its AI removes the vocals, syncs the lyrics word by word and exports a sing-along video, in the browser, on desktop or with an extension. TONTRIA Clips is built for artists promoting their own music: it keeps your voice, brings the synced lyrics from the song link, puts karaoke captions on your music video, shows and rehearsals, and makes the Spotify Canvas and vertical clips for TikTok, Reels and Shorts — with 30 free credits and plans from USD 10 a month.
The free plan includes 30 credits to start, no card needed.

When TONTRIA is the better choice
- It is your song and you want people to hear your voice: TONTRIA syncs the lyrics to the singing instead of removing it. See the lyric video maker and the karaoke and lyric video editor.
- The release needs more than one video: the lyric video, the Canvas, the release pieces and vertical clips with karaoke captions in one plan.
- You have a music video, a show or a rehearsal and want the moments that work alone on TikTok, Reels and Shorts: see music video to Shorts and live performance clips.
- You want to start free: 30 credits without a card, then USD 10 a month.
When Youka may suit you better
- You need an instrumental with the lyrics on screen to sing over, at home, at an event or for a cover.
- You want the stems of the song, a desktop app or to play karaokes offline.
- You make sing-along videos of many songs and want duet colors and translation lines in the same video.
An artist can use both: Youka to rehearse over an instrumental and TONTRIA to post the lyric video and the clips with their own voice. If you post covers, read how to post a cover song first, since the original song has its own owners.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Youka cost?
As of October 23, 2026, Youka’s pricing page lists Basic at USD 9.99 a month (100 credits, about 20 karaokes), Standard at USD 19.98 (200 credits, about 40) and Pro at USD 29.97 (300 credits, about 60), all with the same features and cancel anytime. A track uses between 5 and 10 credits depending on whether you provide the lyrics, and monthly credits expire 60 days after they are issued.
Is Youka free?
New accounts get 15 credits on signup, no card needed — Youka says that covers about 3 karaoke videos and calls it a free trial, not unlimited free processing. Its small audio tools (pitch, speed, cutter, key and BPM finder) are free without signing up. TONTRIA Clips gives 30 credits to start, one time, with no card: about seven lyric videos of three and a half minutes.
Can TONTRIA remove the vocals from a song like Youka?
No. TONTRIA Clips does not make instrumentals or sing-along tracks: it keeps the voice and syncs the lyrics to it, because it is made for artists posting their own songs. If you need the vocals removed to sing over a track, Youka is the closer fit.
Is TONTRIA cheaper than Youka for lyric videos?
Per song, usually yes: in TONTRIA Clips a 3½-minute lyric video uses about 4 credits (1 credit = 1 minute processed) and the Creator plan gives 150 credits for USD 10 a month (USD 7 billed yearly), while Youka uses 5 to 10 credits per track from 100 credits for USD 9.99. They do different jobs, though: Youka’s price includes removing the vocals.
Can I put karaoke lyrics on my own music video with TONTRIA?
Yes. Upload the video or paste a YouTube link and ask Milo, the editor, for karaoke lyrics: each word lights up as it is sung, inside the safe zone of TikTok, Reels and Shorts, in vertical or horizontal. A one-minute clip uses about 2 credits.
What app can I use instead of Youka?
If you are an artist and want the lyric video of your song, karaoke captions on your clips, the Spotify Canvas and vertical clips in one account, TONTRIA Clips does it from your song link, with 30 free credits and no card. If you want instrumentals with the lyrics to sing along at home or at an event, Youka is built for that.
