What the price counts

Two meters run side by side: minutes of Speech-To-Speech voice morphing a month (3 free, 60 Creator, 180 Professional) and a pool of AI Tokens charged per character for text-to-speech and translation and per second for transcription.

Voice AI services, like Text-To-Speech, Translation, Speech-To-Text and Cleaning consume tokens on a per character or per second basis, as outlined…

Voices that use more

Premium third-party voices burn the token pool faster: the published table charges 1 token per character for Altered, Azure, Google, Polly and Watson voices but 8 tokens per character for Google Studio voices.

Higher quality third party voices (like the 'Google Studio' voices) consume a higher number of Text Tokens per character, this is displayed on the…

Past your allowance

Altered says exceeding a plan's limits may bring extra charges or capped usage, but it publishes no price for an extra minute or an extra token anywhere on the pricing page, so the cost of going over is unknowable in advance.

Usage limits depend on your subscription plan. Exceeding these limits may result in additional charges or limitations on your TTS usage.

Unused credits

Unused AI Tokens carry into the next month automatically, but the comparison table marks Monthly Rollover with a dash in the Free column, so rollover starts on the paid Creator plan; morphing minutes are not described as rolling over.

Unsued AI Tokens are automatically allocated to the following month

Commercial use

Publishing commercially starts one plan up from free: the Creator plan's license allows it only for teams of five or fewer with under $100k of revenue or funding, and the unrestricted Commercial License arrives with Professional.

It allows commercial use of the Outputs as long as the overall revenue or funding from relevant activities is below $100k over the last 12 months.

Long scripts and chapters

A transcription editor is built for podcasts and long recordings and an editable history lets you revisit and recompute any single edit, but Altered states it has no multi-track editing and names no chapter structure for a book-length project.

Navigating and understanding the structure of long voice recordings can be challenging, especially for those not experienced in reading waveforms.

Several speakers

One project can carry several voices: Altered pitches driving a whole multi-character production single-handed, and the video workflow describes morphing voices into diverse character dialogues inside one file.

Rapid Voice Cloning builds a usable clone from 4-8 seconds of audio and Altered says it is available to every user at no extra cost, though it warns likeness is lower than a full Custom Voice.

Professional cloning

Local Voice Cloning trains a higher-fidelity model from two minutes to an hour of recordings on your own machine and is listed on every plan, but it needs an NVIDIA RTX 2080/3080/4080 with 12GB; the top tier is a studio-trained Custom Voice.

Your voice trains their models

Training on your recordings is opt-in and priced: the Real-Time Pro AI Improvement Program trades a discount for consent to train on your voice, keeps anonymized audio up to 36 months, and you can withdraw in account settings and revert to standard pricing.

You can withdraw your consent at any time in your account settings. If you withdraw, you'll revert to the standard subscription price.

Dubbing and translationYes

Video dubbing

You import the video and dub it in the speaker's own voice through a documented five-step chain: transcribe, translate, adapt, revoice with text-to-speech, then morph onto a rapid clone of the original speaker.

morph the audio with a rapid clone of the original speaker, ensuring a seamless and engaging multilingual experience

Dubbing and translationNo

Lip sync

Altered edits only the audio stream of an imported video and says so plainly; Time-Locked Mode preserves the existing lip synchronization rather than regenerating mouth movement for the new language.

It is important to remember that you are not operating on the video file but on the audio of the video.

Dubbing and translationYes

Editing the translation

The translated script is yours to fix before the voice is made: the workflow has you translate, then adapt the text to the other language's cultural context, and transcription edits include moving and splitting word boundaries.

Captions and subtitles

Transcription can be aligned to an imported script or generated from the audio, edited, and exported as SRT, plain text or CSV, and a translated transcript yields subtitles in the target language.

Voice to video

Imported video frames are shown time-aligned with the waveform and all edits run in Time-Locked Mode, so recording, text-to-speech and morphing stay on the picture's timeline and can be exported back to video.

All audio effects and edits are made in the Time-Locked Mode that preserves the time-line and the lip synchronization.

Team seats

Multi-Seat working with pooled quota across seats is marked only in the Enterprise column of the comparison table, and because Enterprise is quote-only Altered publishes no per-seat price.
