| Which plan to pick | Starter at $6 is enough for occasional voiceovers with a commercial licence. Most creators land on Creator at $22 for the professional voice clone and more minutes. Pro and Scale are for teams or anyone building products on the API. | If you already pay for Google AI Pro, you have Veo; use it through Flow for the most control.
