Get $5K in Murf credits to build with AI voices—50M characters, 3 months.
You get $5,000 in credits (50 million characters) to test Murf's text-to-speech API over 3 months. That's access to 200+ realistic voices across 20+ languages, voice customization, style adjustments, and collaboration tools. The real win: you can validate whether AI voice makes sense for your product before spending real money. After the trial ends, you'll pay $1 per 10K characters on a pay-as-you-go basis, or lock into their Business Plan at $66/month if you're a regular user. Note that credits expire at the 3-month mark—there's no rollover or extension. Best for founders building voice features into apps, content platforms, or accessibility tools who need to prove the unit economics work first.
