Talking photo cost and credit calculator
Plan short clips without guessing what “one credit” means. The calculator mirrors the production rule: one credit for each started 10 seconds of audio, with a 60-second limit per job.
Estimate credits before you upload
Each clip is billed in started 10-second blocks. A 10.1-second clip uses 2 credits, while ten separate 1-second clips use 10 credits.

before tax
Suggested combination: 1× Starter. It covers 2 credits. This estimate uses TalkingPhoto’s listed prices and does not predict competitor charges or taxes.
Keep clips intentional
Trimming 20.1 seconds to 20 seconds reduces a clip from 3 credits to 2. Remove silence before uploading.
Count separate jobs
Billing rounds each submitted job separately. Combining lines into one coherent recording can use fewer credits than many tiny clips.
Preview first
Eligible new accounts can test one view-only clip up to 5 seconds before buying credits.
