API Wallet & Pricing - AudioPod AI

Pricing

Start free, pay-as-you-go. New accounts begin with free credits — no card required. When you need more, top up and pay only for what you use: $1 = 7,500 credits, and credits never expire. All API prices below are per minute of audio processed (input duration unless noted).

Service	Rate	$10 Gets You
Stem Separation	$0.10/min	100 min
Transcription	$0.01/min	1000 min
Text to Speech	$0.04/min	250 min
Voice Cloning	$0.04/min	250 min
Voice Conversion	$0.13/min	77 min
Speech Translation (Dubbing)	$0.40/min	25 min
Speaker Separation	$0.20/min	50 min
Music Generation	$0.04/min	250 min
Audiobook Narration	$0.04/min	250 min
Media Conversion	$0.01/min	1000 min

Minimum top-up: $1.00**. Maximum: **$ 10,000.

Premium variants and modes. Some services charge a multiplier on the base rate:

Music Generation — AudioMusic Premium (dit_variant="xl"): 2× the base rate ($0.08/min).
Stem Separation — premium packages: karaoke and vocal_gender are 1.5× ( $0.15/min); `instrument_isolator` is **2×** ($ 0.20/min). Plain modes (2stem / 4stem / 6stem / 16stem) bill at the base $0.10/min.

TTS billing model. API wallet bills TTS by the duration of the generated audio, not by character count. The per-character rate shown elsewhere in the docs applies to account-credit billing (subscription plans), not to API-wallet billing.

Noise Reduction is currently billed from your account credit balance (subscription plan credits), not from the API wallet. To use noise reduction programmatically, sign in to your account and obtain a session — the API-key

wallet path for denoising is not yet enabled.
