§ Pricing
One credit. One thousand words.
That’s it. No per-minute pricing, no character counting, no hidden fees. A typical 80,000-word novel costs around 80 credits — roughly the price of a paperback.
Every free account starts with 10 credits — enough to test a few chapters (~10,000 words) before you commit.
1 credit = ~1,000 words
We count words, not characters or audio minutes. Words are predictable — you know your manuscript length before you generate.
Regeneration is free
Don’t like how chapter seven sounds? Regenerate it with a different voice or settings. You only pay once per chapter.
Subscribe or buy once
Monthly plans give the best value and rollover. Prefer a one-time purchase? Credit packs work too — no subscription required.

Every plan includes all voices, all languages, ACX mastering, and voice cloning. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime.

Need a boost?
Top-up packs for when one month’s credits aren’t quite enough.
Two ways to pay — your call.
Want to try a single book first? Credit packs are one-time purchases — buy 25, 75, or 200 credits, use them whenever, no subscription required. A Large Pack (200 credits, $29.99) covers two full novels with room to spare.
Publishing regularly? A monthly plan is better value per credit and comes with rollover. Unused credits carry forward to the next month (up to your plan’s cap — roughly two months’ worth). If you publish twice a year, keep the Starter plan between releases and let credits build up. If you’re prolific, Professional covers two novels a month.
Either way, you always have access to regenerate chapters, try new voices, and polish your audiobooks — without watching a meter tick up.
How we compare.
Premium TTS platforms like ElevenLabs and Play.ht are extraordinary for short-form audio — ads, podcasts, social clips. For a 30-second voiceover, they’re the gold standard. But book-length narration is a different problem: 80,000+ words, consistent voice across 25 chapters, ACX-compliant mastering. That’s what StoryVox is built for.
| Feature | StoryVox | Premium TTS | Studio narrator |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost for an 80k-word novel | ~$10–15 | ~$99–330 | $3,000–5,000 |
| Time to finished audiobook | 20–45 min | Manual per-chapter | 3–6 months |
| ACX-compliant mastering | Built in | Manual post-processing | Usually included |
| Multi-language (8 languages) | Auto-detect + filtered | Varies by plan | Separate narrator each |
| Voice consistency across chapters | Automatic | Requires manual setup | Naturally consistent |
| Pronunciation dictionaries | Per-book custom rules | Limited or manual SSML | Narrator handles live |
| You own the output | 100% | Depends on plan/license | Depends on contract |
We use the same cutting-edge voice synthesis technology as the premium platforms — and we’re always upgrading. The difference is purpose: StoryVox is optimized end-to-end for books. The upload flow, the chapter splitter, the pronunciation engine, the mastering chain — all of it exists to turn a manuscript into a finished audiobook, not a 30-second clip.
