What does speech cost?

Paste text, see the character count and the price per model, from short clips to audiobook scale.

Last reviewed July 17, 2026

How this is computed

Speech is billed per character. The estimate multiplies your text's character count by each model's per-1K-character rate and shows the in-idapt price including the speech service markup shown in the app. Replays of already-generated audio are served from cache and cost nothing.
