Starter and Creator first-month discounts are separate from renewal prices.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On October 13, the page advertised Starter at $1 for the first month, with \u201cUntil Oct 18,\u201d and Creator at $11 for the first month. The regular monthly prices shown alongside those offers were $6 and $22. A first-month offer is a short-term entry price, so use the regular rate when budgeting recurring work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Annual billing is advertised as paying for ten months. Calculated monthly equivalents at the regular prices are $5 for Starter, $18.33 for Creator, $82.50 for Pro, $249.17 for Scale and $825 for Business. Those are annual-cost equivalents, rather than a month-to-month payment option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For students comparing discounts across providers, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/ai-audio-model-student-discounts\/\">AI audio model student discounts guide<\/a> separates provider offers from platform offers. A GlobalGPT discount does not change ElevenLabs\u2019 official API rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"credits-and-promos\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Credits, retries and launch promotions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2019ElevenLabs' <a href=\"https:\/\/elevenlabs.io\/docs\/help-center\/technical\/what-models-do-you-offer-and-what-is-the-difference-between-them\">model and credit documentation<\/a> describes one credit per character for v4 in UI generations, excluding credit multipliers. In a Creative plan, a 10,000-character pass therefore uses 10,000 base credits. Leave room for the lines you will regenerate rather than budgeting only the final script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official pages still carried a banner saying \u201c3x credits included on Creator+ until October 12\u201d when checked on October 13. That date had already passed. The displayed plan allowances above are a dated record of the page, and the expired banner does not establish an active free-generation offer. Verify the allowance and promotion attached to your checkout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overage eligibility also varies. The <a href=\"https:\/\/elevenlabs.io\/docs\/overview\/administration\/billing\">official billing documentation<\/a> refers to Enterprise and legacy Creator, Pro, Scale and Business plans for usage-based billing, with a configurable spending threshold. Do not assume every new plan has the same overage option or price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A repeat submission is not automatically a free regeneration. Our T5 test used a new API task with the same script as T1. It was designed to produce another sample, rather than to test an official Creative retry entitlement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"hands-on\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our Eleven v4 and Turbo audio tests<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We ran ten GLBGPT API tasks: five scripts with Eleven v4 and the same five with Eleven v4 Turbo. Both routes used the stock Mark voice, with no custom voice upload.

GlobalGPT\u2019s displayed rates were 330 credits per 1,000 characters for v4 and 165 for Turbo. That gives an estimated 304.92 and 152.46 platform credits before per-task rounding. These are displayed-rate calculations, not a verified account debit total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For comparison, applying ElevenLabs\u2019 official list rates to the same inputs gives approximately $0.0739 for v4 and $0.0370 for Turbo, before tax. GlobalGPT\u2019s displayed platform equivalents were $0.33 and $0.165 per 1,000 characters. The platform has separate billing; its rate is not the official API rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If speech is one part of a larger creative project, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/generate-voice-edit-ai-video-one-place\/\">generating, voicing and editing AI video in one place<\/a> can simplify the handoff between assets.

Creative subscriptions use a separate credit allowance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Eleven v4 free?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ElevenCreative has a Free plan with 10,000 displayed monthly credits. The launch promotion referred to October 12; it should not be treated as an active unlimited free offer on October 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is v4 Turbo cheaper than standard v4?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, at the official API list rates: Turbo is $0.04 per 1,000 characters, versus $0.08 for standard v4. That is half the input cost for the same number of charged characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the regular ElevenCreative Starter price?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The regular monthly Starter price is $6. On October 13, the page advertised $1 for the first month with \u201cUntil Oct 18.\u201d That introductory offer is separate from the regular monthly rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do Creative credits equal the API character allowance?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. The Creative page lists a shared creative-credit pool, while the API page lists model-specific character equivalents for dollar-denominated usage. Do not add those figures as independent allowances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are all repeated generations free?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No automatic free retry was established by our test. Repeating the same text through the GLBGPT API created a new task. Any eligible official app regeneration benefit needs its own terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I use Eleven v4 on GlobalGPT?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. We verified and used GlobalGPT\u2019s Eleven v4 and Eleven v4 Turbo audio-generator routes for all ten samples. GlobalGPT uses its own platform credits and displayed model rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does the test prove Turbo has 100 ms latency?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Our timing measures asynchronous GLBGPT task completion, with medians of 24 seconds for v4 and 20 seconds for Turbo. It does not measure streaming latency or time to first audio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I use generated audio commercially?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ElevenLabs lists a commercial license on paid Creative plans. The Free tier is for non-commercial use with attribution. Voice consent, plan terms and any platform-specific rights still matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commercial rights should be checked against the <a href=\"https:\/\/elevenlabs.io\/pricing\">official plan terms shown on the pricing page<\/a> and the generation route you use. A platform test is not evidence of a universal license for every voice or account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\n    \"@context\": \"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\n    \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n    \"mainEntity\": [\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"How much does Eleven v4 cost per 1,000 characters?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"ElevenLabs\\u2019 official API list price is $0.08 per 1,000 characters for Eleven v4 and $0.04 for v4 Turbo, excluding tax.
