- [API: yes — A documented speech API with official software kits for a dozen languages, a command line tool and a hosted assistant connector is sold on its own plans.](https://typecast.ai/text-to-speech/)
- [API price: yes — The API plans publish a per-credit rate with one credit equal to one character: $0.075 per 1k credits inside the $15 Lite plan, $0.07 per 1k inside the $280 Plus plan, so a million characters of speech is priced in public rather than quoted.](https://typecast.ai/pricing/api/)

**Trade-offs against TTSMaker:**
- [Promotion and regular price: no — none. The price shown first is the plain month-to-month rate: each plan card opens with its Monthly control selected at $29, $49 and $149, and only switching the card's own control to Yearly drops Creator to $24 a month billed as $288 for the year, advertised as two months free rather than as an introductory discount.](https://www.heygen.com/pricing)
- [Past your allowance: partial — Only the team plan can buy extra credits: Business tops up in blocks of 100 credits for $5, which is 5 cents a credit, with optional auto-reload, while Creator and Pro cannot buy packs at all and must move up a plan or a credit tier when the month's allowance is gone.](https://help.heygen.com/en/articles/15126059-how-to-use-credits-on-heygen)

- [Long scripts and chapters: yes — Story Studio is a project editor for long-form, multi-speaker audio, and its credit rule says blocks whose audio is current are free, so single blocks can be regenerated cheaply.](https://docs.fish.audio/overview/platform)

**Trade-offs against TTSMaker:**
- [Commercial use: partial — Publishing commercially starts one plan above the free one: the Free Tier card lists commercial use among the features it does not include and the vendor restricts free output to personal projects, while Plus at $15 a month lists commercial use allowed, limited to voices you own and have verified.](https://fish.audio/plan/)
- [Your voice trains their models: yes — The terms authorize Fish Audio to train its models on your content and usage data, and the only published way out is the Enterprise plan's zero data retention, not a self-serve switch.](https://fish.audio/terms/)
