Companies that need shared credits and security controls.

Which plan to pickStart on Plus for a month and watch the usage page closely, especially when the agent is working. Only move up to Pro once you know which models and workflows you'll use, because Veo clips cost about three times as much as Ray3.2.Premium billed yearly is the sweet spot for practising: unlimited songs for about $3 a month. Only go Pro if you produce or remix and need Hi-Fi stems, separate drum parts or the plugin. App store prices can differ from the website.Pro is the one for almost everyone: 2,500 credits is around 500 songs, with commercial rights and 20 downloads a month. Go Premier only if you need stems and the Studio editor, or you download more than 20 tracks a month.
