Speechify credits calculator

Convert Speechify Studio credits — or a whole plan — into minutes of voiceover, dubbing and avatar video. Studio meters by the second, which makes the math clean until you switch modes and the rate jumps 3× or 30×.

Quick answer: 1 Speechify Studio credit = 1 second of voiceover, so Starter’s 7,200 monthly credits are exactly 2 hours of finished audio (≈ $0.16/minute at $19/mo). Dubbing burns 3 credits per second and avatar video 30 — the same pool lasts 40 minutes dubbing or just 4 minutes of avatars.

Plan pools, prices and per-second rates verified on Speechify's pages, Jul 2026 (voiceover 1 cr/s · dubbing 3 · avatar 30; unchanged re-exports free). Studio Free carries no commercial usage rights. Regenerated takes bill again — treat results as planning figures.

How Speechify Studio credits convert

The per-second meter is Speechify’s cleanest idea: a 10-minute YouTube narration costs exactly 600 credits, so Starter covers roughly 12 such videos a month with credits left over. The trap is the mode spread — the identical pool buys two hours of voiceover, 40 minutes of dubbing, or four minutes of avatar footage. The full mechanics, including what happens on re-exports, are in our Studio credits explainer.

Two licensing notes before you budget: Studio Free’s 600 credits carry no commercial usage rights — the license starts at Starter, detailed in our commercial-use read — and Premium (the $29 listening app) includes no Studio credits at all. For how Studio’s voices stack against the field, see the Speechify review and the ElevenLabs vs Speechify comparison.

Speechify credits FAQ

Studio meters by time, not words: 1 credit buys 1 second of voiceover, dubbing burns 3 credits per second, and avatar video burns 30 per second — all from one pool. So Starter's 7,200 monthly credits equal exactly two hours of finished voiceover.

Seconds-metered, and what that costs at scale

Speechify meters credits as seconds of finished voiceover, so runtime is the unit that matters, not script length — and dubbing bills 3x from the same pool. ElevenLabs meters characters instead, with a $6 commercial floor and credits that roll over up to two months on paid plans, which is the cheaper shape for bursty narration work.
