- The official Korean won price was not confirmed. Monthly billing prices and first-month promotions follow the official pricing page, and the monthly equivalents with annual billing are calculated from "2 months free with annual billing" (confirmed from a third-party source).
- As of the check date, limited-time promotions such as extra credits for v4 use are running on Creator and above plans.
Which plan for whom
- Free: People who want to hear the voice quality for themselves. At about 10 minutes per month it is only suitable for personal tests.
- Starter: Individuals who want to use short results commercially, such as YouTube Shorts narration. For $6/mo you get commercial use and instant cloning of your own voice.
- Creator: Creators who make videos or podcasts every week and audiobook authors. It includes 2 hours of audio per month and 1 precise voice clone, so the value is best.
- Pro: Professional producers and app developers who need large amounts of high-quality audio, such as audiobooks and lectures.
- Scale: Small production companies and startups where several people must share the same voices and projects.
- Business: Companies running voice agents or bulk dubbing. Credit unit prices are low and seats are generous.
- Enterprise: Organizations that need security contracts (HIPAA, SLA, SSO), such as healthcare and finance.
- API: Developers who want to add voice to a service can test on Free and then choose Creator to Business according to usage.
