What the one window replaces
A solo show usually runs on five tabs and five invoices. Here is what those cost, at list price, before CastGenX.
| The job | The usual tool | A month |
|---|---|---|
| Hosting and the RSS feed | Buzzsprout | $19 |
| Editing | Descript, Riverside | $16–29 |
| Clips, show notes and posts | Castmagic | $39 |
| AI voices | ElevenLabs | $5–22 |
| Loudness and leveling | Auphonic | $0–11 |
That is roughly $80–120 a month across five tools, none of which talk to each other. Creator is $39 a month, or $31 billed yearly, for the whole chain in one window.
List prices from each vendor's public pricing page, read on 3 October 2026. If one has changed, tell us at hello@castgenx.com and we'll fix the table.
Add-ons
Monthly, cancel any time, sold inside the studio. Each one is a switch, not a plan change.
| Add-on | A month | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Premium Voices | $49 | ElevenLabs studio voices for your AI speakers. Voicing with them burns 4 credits per 1,000 characters (Deepgram voices burn 1). |
| Extra team seat | $95 each | One more teammate in your Studio workspace, beyond the 3 included. |
| AI Imaging Elite | $19 | 30 high-end cover images a month at 2K and 3000 px. Premium cover art needs it. |
| AI Music | $49 | 30 minutes of AI-composed music a month: beds, intros, outros and stingers. |
| Brand-free | $15 | Removes the “Made with CastGenX” footer, mark and audio tag from your episodes. |
| Signature Music Library | $25 | The full licensed music library: loopable beds, intros, outros, stingers and full pieces, cleared for every platform. Every plan gets a 10-track starter set. |
| Elite SFX | $15 | The full sound-effect library, placed at your transitions automatically, instead of generating each effect with AI. |

The lifetime deal
One payment of $49 a code on AppSumo, stacked up to six codes. Credits every month, your own keys at 0 credits, and the add-ons at the same prices as everyone else.
Questions people ask before paying
- What is a credit?
- Credits pay for the costly steps. Roughly: 1 credit per 1,000 characters voiced with standard voices (about one finished minute), 4 per 1,000 characters with Premium Voices, 1 per standard cover image, 5 per high-end cover and 8 per minute of AI music. Writing, editing, mixing, mastering, captions, the feed and the Copilot cost 0.
- Do credits roll over?
- Unused monthly plan credits don't roll over to the next month. Top-up packs never expire. Plan credits stay usable until the end of the period you paid for, even after you cancel.
- Can I use my own API keys?
- Yes. Add your OpenAI, Deepgram, NVIDIA or ElevenLabs key in Settings. Calls made with your own API keys cost 0 credits. Those providers bill you directly.
- Do you charge again when I change one line?
- No. Voiced lines are cached by voice and text, so re-rendering an episode never bills the lines you didn't touch.
- Is there a free plan?
- No, but your first episode is on us: every new account gets 15 credits once, with no card and no trial clock, enough to make an episode and hear it come out green. After that you pick Creator, Pro or Studio. Your drafts are never deleted for being on no plan.
- Is there a lifetime deal?
- Yes, on AppSumo: $49 a code, up to six codes stacked into Tier 1–6. The details are on the lifetime deal page.
- Can I cancel?
- Any time, from Settings → Plan & billing. Your feed keeps working without a plan, and you can move it to another host with one form.
