- Exact Premium USD monthly or annual price was not published on the official plans page.
- Whether Premium is bundled into specific Creative Cloud or Express seats should be confirmed in the Adobe checkout flow.
- Daily enhancement caps can change and should be re-read on the live plans page.
Official plans page checked 2026-08-26. Third-party pages listing Premium at $9.99/month are not treated as official Adobe list prices because that dollar figure was not on the official plans page during verification.
Monthly Creative plans: Free $0 with 10,000 credits; Starter $6 with 30,000 credits; Creator $22 with 121,000 credits, currently advertised at $11 for the first month; Pro $99 with 600,000 credits; Scale $299 with 1.8 million credits and 3 workspace seats; Business $990 with 6 million credits and 10 workspace seats; Enterprise has custom pricing, credits, seats, terms, and support.

- Some official search-indexed versions of the pricing page showed older Scale and Business figures. The summary uses the live plan values retrieved for the checked date: $299/1.8M and $990/6M.
- Commercial rights can vary for individual products under Service-Specific Terms, and Beta Services have no commercial rights.
- The data-use opt-out is prospective and does not undo model-training uses completed before the request was processed.
Official billing documentation and the live pricing page identify the current public plan structure. The Free plan has no commercial license; shared Free output requires ElevenLabs attribution. All paid plans include commercial rights provided the output was generated during the paid subscription, the user holds the necessary underlying rights, and the use complies with applicable law, the Terms, Prohibited Use Policy, and Service-Specific Terms. Paid-subscription output may continue to be used commercially indefinitely. Beta Services are excluded from commercial and production use. ElevenLabs says it uses certain submitted data to improve its models, but any user can disable 'Improve the models for everyone'; the opt-out applies to newly submitted data. Enterprise data is not used for training by default except as necessary to provide the contracted service. The Prohibited Use Policy bans replicating another person's identifiable voice without consent or legal right, harmful impersonation, and deceptive failure to disclose AI generation.
