An app called Hook Music is accusing the AI music generator Suno of copying its whole deal. Hook's founder, Gaurav Sharma, backed by investors like Kygo's fund and Edgar Bronfman Jr., says Suno's new "Create Hook" feature directly mirrors their own brand and tech for remixing music.
Hook claims it built a legit system for rights and payments over the years. They argue that Suno's similar naming and function could confuse users, threatening their trademark. The startup says it is reviewing legal options.
This conflict follows Suno's recent massive funding round and a new licensing deal with Warner Music. Other copyright lawsuits against Suno from international groups are still pending.
