When do ElevenLabs credits reset?

ElevenLabs credits reset monthly on your billing date. Free plan credits reset every 30 days from signup. With CostGoat, you can track exactly when your credits will refresh and how many you'll receive.

Do ElevenLabs credits roll over?

No, unused ElevenLabs credits do not roll over to the next month. They expire at the end of each billing cycle, so tracking your usage matters if you don't want to waste credits you've paid for.

How do ElevenLabs credits work?

ElevenLabs credits are measured in characters. Each character of text you convert to speech uses one credit. Different voices and models use the same credit rate. CostGoat helps you monitor this usage in real-time.

How much do ElevenLabs credits cost?

ElevenLabs pricing starts at $5/month for 30,000 characters on the Starter plan. Higher tiers offer better per-character rates: Creator ($22/mo for 100K), Pro ($99/mo for 500K), and Scale ($330/mo for 2M characters).

How do I get free ElevenLabs credits?

ElevenLabs offers 10,000 free characters per month on their free tier. You can also get additional free credits through referral programs or occasional promotions. CostGoat helps you track all your credits in one place.
