Free plan in real output
The pricing page we read is API pricing: a $10 free API credit, then pay per 1,000 characters. Studio (web app) plan prices weren't on the page we captured.
- Falcon at $0.01 per 1,000 characters: a 10,000-word script (about 60,000 characters) costs about $0.60 in API usage.
- For non-developers, check the Studio plans in the app; we didn't capture them.
Cost at your stage
| Plan | Monthly cost | |
|---|---|---|
| Month 1 (testing, low volume) | API pay as you go | $0 |
| Month 12 (working volume) | API pay as you go | $0 |
Break-even: API usage at cents per script is covered by any paid voiceover job.
Month-12 plan is our estimate of what a solo seller at steady weekly output needs, based on the plan limits above. Costs exclude tax.
