Every Synthesia plan, how many credits each one gives you, and the cheapest plan for the AI avatar videos you make.
Estimated cost
The calculator uses Starter and the Pro credit tiers, counted per month: on yearly billing Synthesia gives the year's credits up front (for example 72,000 a year on Pro, which is 6,000 a month). Paid plan credits come on top of the free allowance of the Basic plan, 500 credits a month. A typical finished minute of video uses about 100 credits, more if the avatar is on screen throughout.
The tier that fits your usage is highlighted in the table below as you move the calculator.

Pro on the card is for 6,000 credits a month (72,000 a year on yearly billing); more credits raise the price, as in the table. On monthly billing the first month is $9 on Starter and from $49 on Pro. You can buy extra credits from Plan & billing if you run out. Studio Avatars are a paid add-on at $1,000/year.
Basic is free. Starter costs $19/month, or $14/month billed yearly ($168/year). Pro starts at $89/month, or $59/month billed yearly ($708/year), for 6,000 credits a month and goes up to $676/month ($448/month yearly) for 48,000. Enterprise is custom.
Yes. The Basic plan is $0 with 500 credits and 10 minutes of video a month. Videos carry a Synthesia watermark.
Synthesia counts the avatar footage generated, not the length of the finished video. A typical finished minute uses about 100 credits, more if the avatar is on screen throughout. Dubbing uses 80 credits per minute with lip-sync and 40 without.
On monthly billing, Starter's first month is $9 (then $19/month). Pro's first month is $49 with 6,000 credits a month (then $89/month), $95 with 12,000, $179 with 24,000, $259 with 36,000 and $329 with 48,000.
