Higher tiers are Standard at $78 per month (1,500 credits, 3 voice clones) and Premium at $153 per month (5,000 credits, 5 voice clones).

Enterprise pricing is custom, refunds can be requested within 30 days of payment, and the page body says there is no free trial even though the page title mentions one. The homepage advertises a free first video and 50 credits for new users, so confirm current terms at signup.
