Which plan to pickStarter 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.Use the free credits first, then pay for Plus month to month until you know how many credits a video really takes you. Only switch to yearly once your usage is steady, because refunds are refused after you've used any credits.Test on the free credits, then take Pro if you make video every week. Standard's 660 credits go quickly once you start redoing clips. Paying yearly saves about a third, but only commit once you know you'll keep using it, because cancelling is the most common complaint.
