Open the pickerAI voice tool pricing: What the numbers actually show
- Text-to-speech is not priced per hour, and that hides a 3x gap. Converted to cost per finished hour of audio, Speechify Studio works out at about $4.17/hr, ElevenLabs Creator at $10.91/hr, and Murf Creator at $14.50/hr on monthly billing. Same job, triple the price.
- The cheapest commercial licence in AI voice costs $6. ElevenLabs Starter is the lowest price at which you are legally allowed to publish what you generate. Every free tier in the text-to-speech group forbids commercial use.
- Synthesia’s entry plan is no longer the same as free. Synthesia switched to credits this month. Starter’s ~150 minutes a year are now granted on top of the 10 free minutes a month every plan carries, so it roughly doubles your output rather than matching it. That was our standing complaint about this tool, and it no longer stands.
- Nobody lets music credits roll over. Suno, Udio and Soundverse all reset monthly. Only credits you buy as add-ons survive the cycle.
- “Unlimited” almost always has a second cap behind it. Fireflies’ unlimited transcription is limited by storage minutes. Otter’s monthly minutes are limited by a per-conversation ceiling. Read the second number.

Text-to-speech and voice cloning
This AI voice tool pricing guide breaks down every plan and what you actually pay. Prices below are for a single seat. “Cost per hour” is our own calculation — see the method note at the bottom.
| Tool | Free tier | Entry paid plan | Cost per hour of audio | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ElevenLabs74 languages · Visit site | 10,000 credits/mo (~10 min)3 projects, 2 voice slots, no commercial licence | $6/moStarter · 30,000 credits/moCheapest commercial licence | $10.91at Creator, $22/mo | Credits roll over two months at most and are forfeited if you cancel or downgrade. Professional voice cloning needs Creator ($22). |
| Murf AI30+ languages, 200+ voices · Visit site | 10 minutes totalOne-time, not monthly · no commercial rights | $29/mo$19/mo billed annually ($228/yr)Creator · 2 hrs/mo | $14.50$9.50 on annual billing | The free 10 minutes is a lifetime allowance, not a monthly refill — the most common complaint we see. |
| Speechify Studio20 languages | 600 credits (10 min voiceover)No cloning, no commercial rights | $100/yr~$8.33/mo · annual billing onlyStarter · 24 hrs/yr | $4.17Cheapest per hour | Credits burn at different rates: voiceover 1/sec, dubbing 3/sec, avatar video 30/sec. Avatar work drains a plan 30x faster. |
| LOVO (Genny)100+ languages, 500+ voices | Not verified this month | Not verified this month | — | The whole LOVO site, including genny.lovo.ai, returns “this deployment is temporarily paused” and serves no pricing page at all. Last time we could read it, Basic was $24/mo on annual-only billing. We are not republishing that figure until the site is back. |
| Resemble AI23 languages (zero-shot cloning) | Flex $0/moPay-as-you-go credits that never expire · 1 team seat | $350/mo$280/mo billed annuallyTeam · 5 seats | Not publishedContact sales | The public pricing page now prices deepfake detection ($0.035/sec). Actual voice generation rates are quote-only. |
Two tools we could not verify this monthPlayAI (formerly Play.ht) would not load for us at all this month — neither play.ai nor play.ht returned a page — so there is nothing to read a price off. LOVO has gone further: its whole site, Genny included, is serving a “deployment temporarily paused” holding page instead of a product. We would rather leave a gap than publish a number we did not see. We retried both on 1 November and nothing has changed: play.ai and play.ht still fail to resolve, and lovo.ai and genny.lovo.ai still serve the paused holding page. Second month dark for both.
Dictation, transcription and meeting notes
These are priced by minutes, hours or storage rather than characters, so the trap is usually a second cap sitting behind the headline one.
| Tool | Free tier | Entry paid plan | Next tier up | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wispr Flow100+ languages · Mac, Windows, iOS, Android · Visit site | Limited words per weekWispr no longer publishes the numberStill the most generous free tier here | $15/mo$12/mo billed annuallyPro · unlimited dictation | $23/mo$18/mo annually · GrowthSSO and admin controls | Notetaker now runs on Mac and Windows; other platforms are still listed as coming. The free cap resets weekly and is counted per platform, but Wispr has taken the 2,000-word figure off its pricing page this month and now says only “limited words per week”. |

AI music, dubbing and synthetic voice video
In this group the thing you are buying is usually the licence, not the features. Read the commercial-rights column first.
| Tool | Free tier | Cheapest commercial licence | Next tier up | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soundverse AIText to music, stems, voice · Visit site | 1,000 tokens on signupnon-commercial only | Not verified this month | Not verified this month | Soundverse has taken every figure off its pricing page, which now names Free, Creator, Pro and Max tiers without a price against any of them. Paid plans are still described as carrying full commercial rights. We are not filling the prices in from memory. |
| SunoText to song | 50 credits/dayNo commercial rights | $10/mo$8/mo billed annually · Pro2,500 credits/moNow level with Udio | $30/mo$24/mo annually · Premier10,000 credits/mo | Subscription credits never roll over, daily or monthly. Only add-on credits you buy separately persist. |
| UdioText to song, voice control | 100 credits/moHard cap of 10 credits/day · 3 full-length songs/day | $10/mo$8/mo billed annually ($96/yr) · Standard2,400 credits, no daily limit | $30/mo$24/mo annually ($288/yr) · Pro6,000 credits/mo | No rollover on any tier. Commercial rights are not stated on the pricing page — check the terms before you publish. Top-ups: 100 credits $3, 1,000 credits $25. |
| HeyGen175+ languages · avatar video and dubbing | 3 videos/mo, 1 min each1 custom avatar, 30+ languages | $29/mo$24/mo billed annually · Creator600 credits/mo, 1080p | $49/moPro · 1,000 credits, 4KBusiness $149/mo, +$20/seat | Unused monthly credits now roll over for one further month; annual subscribers accumulate them until renewal.

| Synthesia160+ languages, translation into 80+ | 10 min video/mo500 credits/mo · Synthesia logo on output | $29/mo$18/mo billed annually · Starter~150 min/yr on top of free, 125+ avatars | $89/moPro · ~720 min/yr$64/mo annually · 180+ avatars | Synthesia moved to credits this month and the old complaint no longer holds. Starter’s ~150 minutes a year now sit on top of the 10 free minutes a month every plan carries, so it roughly doubles the free allowance rather than matching it. Creator has been renamed Pro. |

Across the whole range extra minutes run $0.83–$3.64. |
How we built this and how it stays honest
- Source of truth. Every figure was read off the vendor’s own pricing page in a browser on 1 November 2026. Where a page renders prices only in JavaScript, we loaded it properly rather than scraping the HTML. If a page could not be read, the tool is listed as unverified instead of filled in from a third-party site.
- Monthly versus annual. The large number is the price when you pay month to month. The small grey line underneath is the effective monthly price when you pay for a year up front. Several vendors show only one of the two by default, so we toggled.
- Cost per hour of audio. Our own calculation, not the vendor’s. Where a plan is sold in hours we divided directly. Where it is sold in credits we used the vendor’s own conversion and, for ElevenLabs, the common approximation of 1 credit per character and roughly 1,000 characters per minute of speech. Treat it as a comparison aid, not a contract.
- What we leave out. Promotional and first-month discounts, student pricing, and limited-time offers. Otter was running Pro at $8.49 the day we checked; we list the regular $16.99 because the promo will be gone before you read this.
- Currency. All prices in USD, as shown on each vendor’s page. Taxes vary by country and are not included.
