Enter how much audio you transcribe or how much narration you generate each month, and this calculator shows which plans cover it and what each one costs.

How the numbers are worked out
Transcription minutes are your hours times 60. A plan "covers" the month only if both its monthly minute allowance and its per-recording limit fit. Human transcription is billed per minute of audio. For AI voice, ElevenLabs plans are matched to the smallest plan whose monthly credits cover your characters at 1 credit per character, the rate its pricing page gives for Multilingual v2 voices. Amazon Polly is billed per million characters after its free tier, which lasts 12 months for neural and generative voices.
