> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · Plan cards, Creator column price cell with the billing control clicked to 'monthly', checked 27 October 2026

**Cost for 10 hours a month (heavy use)** · Partly — $120 a month on Professional for 10 hours of 60 minutes. credits counted per character or per word are converted at the standard hour: 52,000 characters, 9,300 words Creator might cost less, but no overage price is published, so it could not be priced past its allowance.

> $120 excl. Tax per month billed monthly
> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · Plan cards, Professional column price cell with the billing control clicked to 'monthly', checked 27 October 2026

**Promotion and regular price** · Yes — yearly shown monthly: the pricing page opens on the annually tab, where Creator reads $30 per month billed annually, while the regular month-to-month rate is $40 and the page labels the annual saving Save 25%.

> $30 excl. Tax per month billed annually
> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · Plan cards, Creator column with the billing control set to 'annually', checked 27 October 2026

**What the price counts** · Yes — 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 in the table below.
> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · '* Tokens' explainer under the plan comparison table, checked 27 October 2026

**Voices that use more** · Yes — 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 voice cards in the library.
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/how-does-altered-studio-calculate-usage-charges/ · FAQ answer, 'How does Altered Studio calculate usage charges?', checked 27 October 2026

**Past your allowance** · Partly — 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.
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/are-there-any-usage-limits-and-what-happens-if-i-exceed-them/ · FAQ answer, 'Are there any usage limits, and what happens if I exceed them?', checked 27 October 2026

**Unused credits** · Partly — 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
> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · Plan comparison table, AI Tokens section, 'Monthly Rollover' row tooltip, checked 27 October 2026

**Commercial use** · Partly — 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.
> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · Plan cards, Creator column, 'Creator License' description, checked 27 October 2026

### The voices

**Stock voices** · Yes — The library pairs 20 professional actor voices with more than 800 voices of ordinary people for secondary characters, and all four plans list both sets; text-to-speech adds hundreds of third-party cloud voices.

> The Voice Library contains up to 20 Professional and 800+ Common Voices for Speech-To-Speech Voice Morphing and as well as 20 Professional voices and hundreds of 3rd party Cloud TTS voices
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/how-many-voices-are-available-in-altered-studios-voice-library/ · FAQ answer, 'How many voices are available in Altered Studio's voice library?', checked 27 October 2026

**Languages** · Yes — Text-to-speech covers more than 70 languages and transcription and translation 75+, while accent handling is narrower: professional voices convert your accent to American or British, or keep your own accent in Timbre mode.

> Altered's Text to Speech supports more than 70 languages
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/how-many-languages-does-altered-tts-support/ · FAQ answer, 'How many languages does Altered's TTS support?', checked 27 October 2026

**Re-voice your recording** · Yes — Speech-To-Speech voice morphing is the core of the product: you record your own performance and it comes back in another voice while your timing, inflection and delivery are preserved.

> Our unique technology allows you to change your voice to any of our carefully curated portfolio or custom voices and create compelling professional voice performances.
> — https://www.altered.ai/altered-studio/ · Hero section, 'Altered Studio for Content Creation', checked 27 October 2026

**Emotion, pace and emphasis** · Yes — Morphing exposes named creative dials for Target Prosody, Pitch Offset, Decreak, Age Shift and Gender Shift, and the text-to-speech side offers a choice of emotional and non-emotional speaking styles.

> The Speech-To-Speech Voice Morphing effect has a variety of creative controls such as Target Prosody, Pitch Offset, Decreak, Age Shift, and Gender Shift.
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/what-creative-dials-are-included-in-speech-to-speech-voice-morphing/ · FAQ answer, 'What creative controls are included in Speech-To-Speech Voice Morphing?', checked 27 October 2026

**Long scripts and chapters** · Partly — 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.
> — https://www.altered.ai/blog/introducing-the-new-transcription-editor-for-podcasts-and-long-voice-recordings/ · Opening paragraph of the product update, checked 27 October 2026

**Several speakers** · Yes — 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.

> Drive a whole multi-character production by yourself, create engaging performances, from whispered secrets to shouted commands.
> — https://www.altered.ai/altered-studio-features/ · 'Create a whole voice production by yourself' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Audio you get** · Yes — Projects save to .wav or Altered's own .altf, exports let you pick the audio codec and target bitrate, and 48kHz sample-rate output is reserved for the Professional plan and above.

> you are saving to an audio file (e.g. .wav, .altf, etc) and not to a video file
> — https://www.altered.ai/blog/audio-and-text-editing-inside-videos/ · 'How it works' section, paragraph on File→Save, checked 27 October 2026

### Cloning a voice

**Instant cloning** · Yes — 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.

> Rapid Voice Cloning requires only a few seconds of training data and is available at all times to all users at no cost, but has lower likeness than a full Custom Voice.
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/what-is-the-difference-between-rapid-voice-cloning-and-a-custom-voice/ · FAQ answer, 'What is the difference between Rapid Voice Cloning and a Custom Voice?', checked 27 October 2026

**Professional cloning** · Yes — 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.

> With only a few minutes to an hour of recordings, you can easily craft lifelike voice clones with ease. Fine-tuning process runs locally on your computer, ensuring your privacy.
> — https://www.altered.ai/voice-cloning/ · 'Custom Voices, No Custom Fees with Local Voice Cloning' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Consent of the voice’s owner** · Yes — The terms put the burden on you in writing: you must hold the rights to the source recording and, if you are not the speaker, have that person's consent, and Altered reserves the right to keep a private record of the source files.

> You must hold the rights to use the Source Voice to create and use the Custom Voice. If You are not the speaker in Source Voice recording then You must have the consent of the person speaking.
> — https://www.altered.ai/terms-and-conditions.html · Clause 3, 'Custom Voices', item 4, checked 27 October 2026

**Your voice trains their models** · Partly — 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.
> — https://www.altered.ai/real-time-pro/ai-improvement-program/ · 'Your rights' section, checked 27 October 2026

### Dubbing and translation

**Video dubbing** · Yes — 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
> — https://www.altered.ai/blog/audio-and-text-editing-inside-videos/ · 'Use Cases' section, 'Multilingual Voice-Dubbing', step 5, checked 27 October 2026

**Lip sync** · No — 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.
> — https://www.altered.ai/blog/audio-and-text-editing-inside-videos/ · 'How it works' section, paragraph preceding File→Save, checked 27 October 2026

**Editing the translation** · Yes — 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.

> adapt the text (if needed) to fit the cultural context of the other language
> — https://www.altered.ai/blog/audio-and-text-editing-inside-videos/ · 'Use Cases' section, 'Multilingual Voice-Dubbing', step 3, checked 27 October 2026

**Captions and subtitles** · Yes — 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.

> use the Speech-to-Text effect to transcribe the audio, edit the transcription as needed, and export the transcription as an SRT
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/how-do-i-use-altered-studio-to-create-subtitles-for-my-video-content/ · FAQ answer, 'How do I use Altered Studio to create subtitles for my video content?', checked 27 October 2026

### Working with it

**Voice to video** · Yes — 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.
> — https://www.altered.ai/blog/audio-and-text-editing-inside-videos/ · 'How it works' section, paragraph on Time-Locked Mode, checked 27 October 2026

**Team seats** · Partly — 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.

> Allows quota pooling across multiple seats.
> — https://www.altered.ai/pricing/ · Plan comparison table, Advanced section, 'Multi-Seat' row tooltip, checked 27 October 2026

**API** · Partly — An API exists but only for Enterprise customers, which the comparison table confirms with dashes against Free, Creator and Professional; the ethics page explains the gate as a deliberate anti-misuse choice.

> Yes, we offer an API for our Enterprise customers to easily integrate Altered Studio into other systems.
> — https://www.altered.ai/faqs/does-altered-ai-have-an-api/ · FAQ answer, 'Does Altered AI have an API?', checked 27 October 2026

**Platforms** · Yes — web, windows, mac: Altered Studio runs in the browser and locally on Windows and macOS, and Altered states flatly that it is not supported on mobile devices, so there is no iPhone or Android app.

> It runs online as well as locally on Windows and Mac using local computing resources.
> — https://www.altered.ai/altered-studio/ · 'Introducing Altered Studio' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Works inside** · Yes — It plugs into the tools around it rather than inside them: files can be opened, shared and saved directly in Google Drive, and exported audio imports cleanly into other audio or video editors.

> Safely access, share and work with your audio files directly in Google Drive.
> — https://www.altered.ai/voice-editor/ · 'Stay Secure' section, checked 27 October 2026

### Labelling and rights

**AI labelling** · Partly — The terms say outputs may carry watermarks or electronic fingerprints that let Altered trace creation, and removing them voids your rights, but labeling is discretionary and no tool is offered for you to check a file yourself.

> Outputs may contain watermarks or other electronic fingerprints that allow the Company to track usage and to audit the creation or use of Objectionable Content.
> — https://www.altered.ai/terms-and-conditions.html · Clause 2, Objectionable Content, item 8, checked 27 October 2026

**Who owns the audio** · Partly — The Commercial License on Professional is a perpetual, royalty-free worldwide license to the outputs, so finished audio survives cancellation, but the service is licensed rather than sold and the right to use a Custom Voice ends with the subscription.

> Custom Voices can only be used in conjunction with a valid Subscription and the right to use the Custom Voices will cease at the end of the Subscription Period
> — https://www.altered.ai/terms-and-conditions.html · Clause 3, 'Custom Voices', item 3, checked 27 October 2026
