AI Summary
About
Resemble AI is a generative voice AI and AI-security company founded in 2019 in Toronto by Zohaib Ahmed (CEO, formerly a lead software engineer at Magic Leap) and Saqib Muhammad. It began with synthetic-voice use cases for gaming, then broadened into text-to-speech, voice cloning, speech-to-speech conversion, real-time voice agents, and multilingual localization. More recently it has pivoted hard toward AI security — audio/video/image deepfake detection (its DETECT-3B-Omni multimodal model), watermarking, and audio intelligence — positioning itself as a “generative AI security” platform rather than only a voice-generation tool.
The company raised an $8M Series A in July 2023 and a $13M round in December 2025 (backed by Google’s AI Future Fund, Okta Ventures, Taiwania Capital, KDDI, and others), bringing total funding to roughly $25M. Its detection technology is marketed to entertainment companies, Fortune 500 telcos, and government agencies.

Pricing summary : How Resemble AI’s pricing model works
Resemble AI now sells through four tiers: Flex, Team, Business, and a quoted Enterprise. Flex is pure pay-as-you-go with no subscription fee ($0/mo) — you load credits into your account (credits never expire) and are billed per second (or per call) of content processed. Team and Business reintroduce a hybrid structure: a flat monthly fee that bundles a set number of team seats (5 on Team, 20 on Business) plus the same per-second/per-call usage meters at discounted rates. Team is $280/mo billed annually (save $840/yr) or $350/mo billed monthly; Business is $800/mo billed annually (save $2,400/yr) or $1,000/mo billed monthly — both save 20% on annual billing. Published usage rates: deepfake detection for audio and image at $0.03500/sec on Flex, $0.01500/sec on Team and Business; video detection at $0.07000/sec on Flex, $0.03000/sec on Team and Business; the unified “Resemble Intelligence” analysis meter at $0.02500/sec on Flex, $0.01500/sec on Team and Business; and identity search and watermark encode/decode at a flat $0.00050 / $0.00050 / $0.00020 per call across all three self-serve tiers. Voice-generation operations (text-to-speech, voice agents, speech-to-text, audio enhancement/editing) remain unpriced on this page, grouped under “Voice AI Research.”
Each tier also bundles a growing “Resemble Meetings” real-time detection feature set: Flex gets basic real-time meeting detection, Team adds “Meetings intelligence,” and Business adds org-wide calendar integration and security notifications. Enterprise is contact-sales and unlocks volume pricing on every processing rate, higher concurrency, enterprise SLAs, custom model training, SSO/SAML, dedicated support, and on-premises deployment. Resemble now nudges Business-plan customers spending over $1,000/month toward a sales conversation for volume pricing.
What makes this different: After collapsing a five-tier subscription ladder into a single Flex wallet in June 2026, Resemble reversed course again in mid-2026 and reintroduced Team and Business subscription tiers — but instead of returning to included-seconds allowances, the new tiers bundle seats plus a straight discount on the same per-second/per-call meter Flex uses, so upgrading buys cheaper unit economics rather than a different pricing mechanic. See the hybrid pricing model it now anchors on, billed via a credit-based wallet on Flex and discounted usage-on-subscription for Team/Business.
Pricing by product
The pricing page organizes around four tiers — Flex, Team, Business, Enterprise — with the same processing-rate meter running underneath all three self-serve tiers at progressively discounted rates on Team/Business.
Plans (Flex / Team / Business / Enterprise)
| Tier | Price | Included | Key mechanics |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flex | $0/mo | No subscription fee; 1 team seat included | Pure pay-as-you-go — buy credits, pay full processing rates |
| Team | $280/mo billed annually (save $840/yr) or $350/mo billed monthly | Everything on Flex, plus lower usage rates on select services, Meetings intelligence, large file uploads, batch uploads; 5 team seats included | Self-serve “Select Team” checkout; discounted usage rates are the main upgrade lever |
| Business | $800/mo billed annually (save $2,400/yr) or $1,000/mo billed monthly | Everything on Team, plus org-wide Meetings calendar integration, Meetings security notifications, Single Sign-On (SSO); 20 team seats included | Self-serve “Select Business” checkout; same discounted rates as Team |
| Enterprise | Custom | Volume pricing on every processing rate, higher concurrency, enterprise SLAs, custom model training, dedicated support, on-premises deployment, SOC 2 documentation | Sales-led, quoted |
Processing rates (all plans, per unit of content)
| Surface | Flex | Team | Business | Enterprise | Billing unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resemble Detect — audio | $0.03500/sec | $0.01500/sec | $0.01500/sec | Volume pricing | per second |
| Resemble Detect — image | $0.03500/sec | $0.01500/sec | $0.01500/sec | Volume pricing | per second |
| Resemble Detect — video | $0.07000/sec | $0.03000/sec | $0.03000/sec | Volume pricing | per second |
| Resemble Intelligence | $0.02500/sec | $0.01500/sec | $0.01500/sec | Volume pricing | per second |
| Resemble Identity search | $0.00050/call | $0.00050/call | $0.00050/call | Volume pricing | per call |
| Resemble Watermarker encode | $0.00050/call | $0.00050/call | $0.00050/call | Volume pricing | per call |
| Resemble Watermarker decode | $0.00020/call | $0.00020/call | $0.00020/call | Volume pricing | per call |
Voice-generation operations (text-to-speech, voice agents, speech-to-text, audio enhancement/editing) remain available as products under a “Voice AI Research” grouping, but carry no published per-second rate on this page.
Sales motions across products: self-serve PLG for Flex, Team, and Business (all three check out via an on-page button with no sales contact), and sales-led for Enterprise (volume pricing, SSO, SLAs, on-prem). Resemble routes Business-plan spend over ~$1,000/month to sales for volume rates.
Hidden costs : What Resemble AI users actually pay
Because Flex is metered per second, the real bill is driven by how much content you process and which operations you run — and the per-second rates span a wide band, from fractions of a cent for watermarking and identity search to $0.07/sec for video deepfake detection. The $20/user team-seat add-on is easy to overlook because it is billed monthly rather than against credits.
A small AI-security team running audio deepfake detection at moderate volume:
| Line item | Monthly cost (illustrative) |
|---|---|
| Audio deepfake detection — ~10 hours/mo ($0.04/sec × 36,000 sec) | ~$1,440 |
| Watermark encode — ~5 hours/mo ($0.0005/sec × 18,000 sec) | ~$9 |
| 2 team seats ($20/user) | $40 |
| Estimated total (small security team) | ~$1,489 |
A video-verification-heavy workload looks very different: deepfake video detection at $0.07/sec runs ~$2,520 for the same 10 hours/month of content, so long-form video review is by far the most expensive surface on the meter. Other things to budget for: higher API concurrency is gated to Enterprise (so high-throughput batch jobs may force a sales motion), and enterprise SLAs, SSO and on-prem are Enterprise-only. There is no perpetual free tier, so prototyping consumes loaded credits from the first second — and Resemble now steers Flex spend above $2,000/month toward a sales conversation for volume pricing.

Tracked range: 2022–present, via Wayback Machine snapshots of resemble.ai/pricing (2023-07, 2024-06, 2025-05) and live captures (2026-06-09, 2026-07-14, 2026-07-29).
Notable changes
- 2023-07 — Around its $8M Series A, ran a two-option model: pay-as-you-go Basic at $0.006/sec and a contact-sales Pro (unlimited voices, 60+ languages).
- 2024-06 — Moved to a five-tier subscription ladder: Creator $29, Professional $99, Growth $299, Business $499 (each with included seconds + per-second overage), plus a Personal PAYG option and Enterprise.
- 2025-05 — Restructured the ladder: Starter $5, Creator $19, Professional $99, Scale $299, Business $699, with cheaper entry, lower overage rates at higher tiers, HD 48kHz output, and 150+ language translation.
- 2026-06 — Collapsed everything into the single pay-as-you-go Flex plan (per-second usage against non-expiring credits) plus Enterprise, and folded deepfake detection into Flex — reflecting the broader pivot toward AI security after the December 2025 raise.
- 2026-07-14 — Removed voice-generation rates from the pricing page and repackaged around AI security: the page now lists only deepfake detection ($0.03–$0.07/sec), identity search ($0.0005/search) and multimodal watermarking ($0.0002–$0.0005/sec). Voice-clone add-ons ($2 rapid, $5 pro, $2 voice design) were dropped, leaving only the $20/user Team Seats add-on; Enterprise’s “up to 80%” discount claim became “based on commitment,” and the sales-conversation nudge rose from $500 to $2,000/month.
- 2026-07-29 — Reintroduced Team and Business subscription tiers, seven weeks after collapsing to Flex-only: Team ($280/mo billed annually or $350/mo monthly, 5 seats) and Business ($800/mo annually or $1,000/mo monthly, 20 seats) bundle seats plus the same per-second/per-call meter at a roughly 40–57% discount. In the same release, Flex’s own Detect rate for audio/image fell from $0.04/sec to $0.035/sec, three separate $0.03/sec “intelligence” SKUs merged into one $0.025/sec Resemble Intelligence meter, and the sales-conversation nudge moved from a Flex-wide $2,000/month threshold to a Business-plan-specific $1,000/month one. The standalone $20/user Team Seats add-on disappeared — seats are now bundled per tier (1/5/20/Custom) with no visible extra-seat price.
The Flex-to-tiers walk-back in detail
Resemble’s pay-as-you-go simplification did not survive two billing cycles. On 2026-06-09 it collapsed a five-tier subscription ladder into a single Flex wallet, pitching “no subscription fee, buy credits as you go” as the model going forward. By 2026-07-29 — seven weeks later — it reversed course and reintroduced two subscription tiers, Team and Business, sitting between Flex and Enterprise. Unlike the 2024–2025 ladder it dismantled in June, the new tiers don’t restore included-seconds allowances: they bundle seats and sell the identical per-second/per-call meter at a straight discount (roughly 40% off Intelligence, 57% off Detect and video). In the same release Resemble cut Flex’s own Detect rate from $0.04/sec to $0.035/sec, merged three $0.03/sec “intelligence” SKUs into one $0.025/sec meter, and moved its sales-conversation nudge from a Flex-wide $2,000/month threshold to a Business-specific $1,000/month one — changes that, taken together, read less like a la carte tuning and more like a course-correction after seven weeks of pure usage billing.
What’s unique : Resemble AI’s distinctive pricing mechanics
1. Per-second metering for detection and verification. Every published surface — deepfake detection, audio/video/image intelligence, identity search, and multimodal watermarking — is priced per second of content processed (identity search, per search). Using time-on-media as the value metric for security work is unusual: most detection tools meter per file or per API call. Resemble kept the same per-second meter it built for voice generation and pointed it at verification, so the billing mental model survived the July 2026 repackaging even though the voice-generation rates left the page.
2. Non-expiring credit wallet, no subscription floor. Flex has no fixed monthly fee and credits that never expire. That removes both the “use-it-or-lose-it” pressure of monthly second allowances and the commitment of a subscription — a buyer-friendly stance Resemble leans on heavily in its FAQ.
3. A wide price band inside a single security meter. Even after voice-generation rates came off the page (July 2026), the published surfaces still span two orders of magnitude on one wallet: watermark decode and identity search sit at fractions of a cent ($0.0002/sec, $0.0005/search) while video deepfake detection runs $0.07/sec — roughly 350x higher. Metering a cheap watermark and an expensive video review through the same credit balance lets Resemble monetize the full AI-security workflow without a second price book.
4. Upgrading discounts the meter instead of replacing it. When Resemble reintroduced Team and Business tiers on 2026-07-29, it didn’t bring back the included-seconds allowances it dismantled in June — every self-serve tier still runs the identical per-second/per-call meter, just at a lower rate (roughly 40–57% off Flex pricing) plus bundled seats. That’s a genuinely different upgrade lever than the 2024–2025 ladder: buyers choosing Team or Business aren’t switching pricing mechanics, only unit price and seat count.
Strengths & weaknesses
| Strengths | Weaknesses |
|---|---|
| Pure usage on Flex — no subscription floor, pay only for what you run | No perpetual free tier; prototyping burns loaded credits immediately |
| Credits never expire (rare, buyer-friendly) | Per-second video detection ($0.07/sec on Flex) gets expensive fast on long media |
| Transparent published per-second/per-call rates on every tier, including the new discounted Team/Business rates | Voice-generation rates left the page (July 2026) — those buyers must now contact sales to price |
| Upgrading to Team ($280–350/mo) or Business ($800–1,000/mo) discounts the same usage meter ~40–57% rather than swapping to a different allowance mechanic | Reintroducing subscription tiers just seven weeks after collapsing to a single Flex plan (2026-06-09 → 2026-07-29) undercuts the “we simplified” pitch |
| One wallet still spans voice generation and AI-security detection across every tier | Volume rates quote-only, and the old “up to 80%” anchor became “based on commitment” (July 2026) — no published ceiling at all |
| Bundled seats (5 on Team, 20 on Business) make per-seat economics predictable at each step | Sales-nudge threshold on Business dropped to $1,000/mo (from a Flex-wide $2,000/mo) — subscription customers get routed to sales twice as fast |
Billing UX : Resemble AI billing controls and transparency
- Billing controls — An on-page Monthly billing / Annual billing toggle (labeled “Save 20%”) switches Team and Business between $350/$280 per month and $1,000/$800 per month; Flex has no subscription fee and credits never expire, so there is no forced monthly spend. Selecting Team or Business is a direct self-serve checkout (“Select Team” / “Select Business”); only Enterprise requires “Contact us.”
- Usage visibility — A “FULL COMPARISON” table on the pricing page publishes explicit per-second/per-call processing rates for every plan side by side (Flex vs. Team vs. Business vs. Enterprise “Volume pricing available”), so a buyer can see exactly how much cheaper Team/Business usage rates are before upgrading. Resemble proactively signals a $1,000/month threshold on the Business plan where volume pricing becomes worthwhile, per its FAQ.
- Payment options — Card-based self-serve checkout for Flex, Team, and Business (Flex funds a credit wallet; Team/Business bill a flat subscription plus discounted usage); Enterprise is invoiced under a custom agreement with volume pricing, enterprise SLAs, and SOC 2 documentation.
Strategic wins : Why Resemble AI’s pricing decisions worked
1. Keeping one usage meter even after reintroducing tiers
Collapsing five monthly tiers into a single pay-as-you-go Flex plan in June 2026 removed the buyer’s hardest decision (which tier?) and aligned price directly with consumption. When Resemble reintroduced Team and Business on 2026-07-29, it preserved that discipline instead of reverting: upgrading doesn’t restore the old included-seconds allowances, it applies a straight ~40–57% discount to the same per-second/per-call meter, so every tier — Flex, Team, Business — still bills against the identical usage model, just at a different rate and with bundled seats. See how AI companies structure pricing.
2. Pricing the deepfake-detection pivot into the same wallet
Rather than spinning up a separate product and price book, Resemble folded detection into Flex at a higher per-second band. That lets the December-2025 AI-security raise translate into revenue on the existing billing rails while keeping a single account for customers who do both generation and verification. By July 2026 it took the same move further — pulling the voice-generation rates off the page entirely and letting deepfake detection, identity search and watermarking be the only prices a buyer sees — so the pricing surface now reads as a security product even though voice generation still bills against the same wallet. On 2026-07-29 it went a step further still, consolidating three separate $0.03/sec “intelligence” SKUs (audio/video/image) into one $0.025/sec “Resemble Intelligence” meter — one fewer line item for buyers to parse while nudging the effective price down. Related: outcome-based pricing trends.
3. Non-expiring credits as a trust signal
In a category full of “use-it-or-lose-it” monthly allowances, promising that credits never expire lowers the perceived risk of pre-loading a wallet — a small mechanic that makes the usage model easier to commit to. See choosing the right usage metric.
Areas to improve : Gaps in Resemble AI’s pricing approach
1. No free tier to seed the funnel
Removing the old Free/Personal tier means developers can’t kick the tires without loading credits. For a PLG, API-first product, a small perpetual free allowance (or trial credits) is usually the cheapest top-of-funnel — its absence raises the bar to first integration. See bill shock and cost unpredictability.
2. Volume rates hidden behind a quote — and the trigger keeps moving
The sales-conversation trigger has changed twice in a single quarter: raised from $500 to $2,000/month (Flex-wide) on 2026-07-14, then redefined as a Business-plan-specific $1,000/month threshold on 2026-07-29. That same July 14 change also reduced transparency by softening the headline “volume discounts up to 80%” claim to “based on commitment,” removing the one number a high-volume buyer could anchor to. Buyers still can’t model cost at scale without a sales cycle, the ceiling is unpublished, and now even the point at which they’re expected to reach out to sales has moved twice in six weeks.
3. Pricing-model whiplash — five models in three years, including a seven-week reversal
PAYG (2023), a five-tier ladder (2024), a restructured ladder (2025), a collapse to pure pay-as-you-go Flex (2026-06-09), and a reintroduction of Team/Business subscription tiers (2026-07-29) make long-horizon budgeting and procurement approvals harder — and the fact that the June “we simplified to one plan” pitch didn’t survive seven weeks turns the whiplash concrete rather than abstract. A published, versioned pricing changelog (even a simple one) would let buyers see what changed without re-reading the whole page every quarter.

Key takeaways
- Usage-only doesn’t guarantee it will stick. Resemble swapped five monthly subscriptions for a single pay-as-you-go Flex wallet in June 2026, betting simplicity would beat segmentation — then reintroduced Team and Business subscription tiers seven weeks later. The lesson for other pricing teams: validate that a pure-usage model actually converts and retains before treating it as the finished model.
- One value metric, one repackaged story. Per-second billing lets Resemble lead its pricing page entirely with AI security (detection, verification, watermarking) after July 2026 while voice generation still bills quietly against the same wallet — monetizing a strategic pivot without fragmenting the product or the meter, a discipline it kept even when it reintroduced Team/Business on 2026-07-29 at a discount on the same meter rather than a new allowance mechanic.
- Non-expiring credits lower commitment risk. A no-expiry promise is a low-cost trust mechanic that makes a prepaid usage model easier to adopt.
- Dropping the free tier has a cost. Pure pay-as-you-go with no free allowance raises friction for the developers who form the funnel.
- Frequent pricing changes are a tax on buyers. Five distinct pricing structures in three years — including a full packaging reversal within seven weeks (2026-06-09 to 2026-07-29) — signals product-market searching but undermines the budgeting and procurement confidence buyers need.
UBP implications
- Time-on-media is a viable universal meter. Per-second billing works across generation, detection, and watermarking, giving one intuitive unit for a multi-product platform — useful when surfaces differ wildly in cost.
- Prepaid, non-expiring credits soften usage anxiety. Removing expiry and minimums makes a consumption model more palatable to bursty buyers — a pattern worth copying for spiky workloads.
- Reserve discounting for the quote, but don’t remove the anchor. Resemble still keeps its steepest volume pricing behind Enterprise, and in July 2026 it softened its published “up to 80%” figure to a vaguer “based on commitment” — leaving high-volume Enterprise buyers with no way to self-qualify. But its 2026-07-29 Team/Business tiers also show a middle path worth copying: they package a straight ~40–57% discount on the same per-second meter into a self-serve subscription, no sales call required — proof that volume discounting doesn’t have to disappear behind a quote for every segment.

Bottom line
Resemble AI is a 2019-founded Toronto voice-AI company that has pivoted toward AI security (deepfake detection, watermarking) on top of its voice generation and cloning APIs. After cycling through pay-as-you-go, a five-tier subscription ladder, a restructured ladder, and a June 2026 collapse to a single pay-as-you-go Flex plan, it reversed course again on 2026-07-29 and reintroduced subscription tiers — Team ($280–350/mo, 5 seats) and Business ($800–1,000/mo, 20 seats) — that bundle seats plus a roughly 40–57% discount on the same per-second/per-call meter Flex uses, alongside a quoted Enterprise tier. As of July 2026 the pricing page still doesn’t publish voice-generation rates or voice-clone add-ons, and Flex’s own detection rate quietly fell from $0.04/sec to $0.035/sec while three “intelligence” SKUs merged into one $0.025/sec meter.

Each milestone below corresponds to a public pricing change, product launch, or material adjustment. Major events use a filled marker; minor adjustments use a faded one.
Reintroduced Team and Business subscription tiers atop Flex
Seven weeks after collapsing to a single pay-as-you-go Flex plan, Resemble reintroduced Team ($280/mo billed annually or $350/mo monthly, 5 seats) and Business ($800/mo annually or $1,000/mo monthly, 20 seats) tiers that bundle seats with a roughly 40-57% discount on the same per-second/per-call meter. Flex's own Detect rate for audio/image fell from $0.04/sec to $0.035/sec, three separate $0.03/sec 'intelligence' SKUs merged into one $0.025/sec 'Resemble Intelligence' meter, and the sales-conversation nudge moved from a Flex-wide $2,000/month threshold to a Business-plan-specific $1,000/month one.
Voice-generation rates removed; page repackaged around AI security
Resemble pulled all voice-generation per-second rates (TTS, voice agents, STS, STT, audio enhancement, audio editing) and the voice-clone add-ons ($2 rapid, $5 pro, $2 voice design) off the pricing page, regrouping voice under 'Voice AI Research'. The page now publishes only deepfake detection ($0.03–$0.07/sec), identity search ($0.0005/search) and multimodal watermarking (encode $0.0005/sec, decode $0.0002/sec). The only add-on left is $20/user Team Seats. Enterprise 'volume discounts up to 80%' softened to 'based on commitment', and the sales-conversation nudge rose from $500 to $2,000/month.
Collapsed to pay-as-you-go Flex + Enterprise
Replaced the entire subscription ladder with a single pay-as-you-go 'Flex' plan: load non-expiring credits, pay per second (TTS $0.0005/sec, voice agents/STT $0.001/sec, audio enhancement $0.002/sec). Deepfake detection ($0.03–$0.07/sec) added to Flex. Add-ons: $20/seat, $2–$5/voice. Enterprise offers volume discounts up to 80%.
Restructured tiers + cheaper entry
Reworked the ladder: Starter $5/mo (4K sec), Creator $19/mo (15K sec), Professional $99/mo (45K sec, $0.002/sec after), Scale $299/mo (120K sec, $0.0018/sec), Business $699/mo (360K sec, $0.0015/sec), and Enterprise. Added 150+ language translation and HD 48kHz output; volume overage rates fell at higher tiers.
Five-tier monthly subscription ladder
Shifted to a tiered subscription model with included seconds: Creator $29/mo (10K sec, then $0.006/sec), Professional $99/mo (80K sec, then $0.002/sec), Growth $299/mo (200K sec), Business $499/mo (320K sec), a Personal pay-as-you-go option, and Enterprise. Voice-clone counts scaled by tier.
Pay-as-you-go Basic + contact-sales Pro
Around its $8M Series A (July 2023), Resemble ran a simple two-option model: a pay-as-you-go 'Basic' plan at $0.006 per second of audio (10 voices, limited languages) and a 'Pro' plan quoted via contact-sales (unlimited voices, 60+ languages, enterprise features).
- · Resemble AI was founded in 2019 in Toronto by Zohaib Ahmed (CEO, ex-Magic Leap) and Saqib Muhammad, and graduated from the Betaworks Synthetic Camp accelerator.
- · It raised an $8M Series A in July 2023 and a $13M round in December 2025 (Google's AI Future Fund, Okta Ventures, KDDI, and others), bringing total funding to about $25M.
- · Resemble collapsed a five-tier monthly subscription ladder into a single pay-as-you-go 'Flex' plan where loaded credits never expire — a rare 'no expiry' promise in the voice-AI space.
Questions & answers
- What is Resemble AI's pricing model?
- Resemble AI now sells through four tiers: pay-as-you-go Flex ($0/mo), subscription Team ($280–350/mo, 5 seats) and Business ($800–1,000/mo, 20 seats) that bundle seats with discounted per-second/per-call usage rates, and a quoted Enterprise tier. On Flex you load non-expiring credits and pay full usage rates — deepfake detection at $0.035–$0.07/sec, a consolidated 'Resemble Intelligence' meter at $0.025/sec, identity search at $0.0005/call, and watermark encode/decode at $0.0005/$0.0002 per call. Team and Business apply a roughly 40–57% discount to that same meter.
- Does Resemble AI offer a free tier?
- There is no perpetual free tier today. The Flex plan starts at $0 to sign up — you only pay for the credits you consume — so you can create an account and load credits as needed with no minimum commitment. Earlier 2024–2025 plans included a Free/Personal tier with a small monthly second allowance, but the current model is pure pay-as-you-go.
- How much does Resemble AI cost per month?
- It depends on the tier. Flex has no fixed monthly fee — you pay per second/call: deepfake audio and image detection at $0.035/sec, video detection at $0.07/sec, and the consolidated 'Resemble Intelligence' meter at $0.025/sec; identity search and watermarking run $0.0002–$0.0005 per call. Team costs $280/mo billed annually (or $350/mo monthly) for 5 seats plus discounted usage rates, and Business costs $800/mo billed annually (or $1,000/mo monthly) for 20 seats at the same discounted rates. Resemble suggests contacting sales once a Business-plan account exceeds about $1,000/month in usage.
- Is Resemble AI pricing usage-based or subscription?
- It's both. Flex is pure usage-based — pay-as-you-go credits billed per second/call with no subscription fee. Team and Business, reintroduced on 2026-07-29, are hybrid: a flat monthly subscription that bundles seats plus the same usage meter at a discount, rather than the included-seconds allowances Resemble's 2024–2025 tiers used. Enterprise remains a custom quote.
- How much does deepfake detection cost on Resemble AI?
- On Flex, deepfake detection costs $0.035/sec for audio and image, and $0.07/sec for video; the separate audio/video/image 'intelligence' rates have been consolidated into one 'Resemble Intelligence' meter at $0.025/sec. Team and Business subscribers get the same meters at a discount ($0.015/sec detection, $0.03/sec video, $0.015/sec intelligence). Identity search is $0.0005 per call. Higher concurrency and enterprise SLAs are quoted under Enterprise.
- What's included in Resemble AI's Team and Business plans?
- Team ($280/mo billed annually or $350/mo monthly) bundles 5 team seats, discounted per-second/per-call usage rates, meetings intelligence, and batch/large-file uploads. Business ($800/mo annually or $1,000/mo monthly) bundles 20 seats, the same discounted rates as Team, plus org-wide meetings calendar integration, security notifications, and Single Sign-On. Both were reintroduced on 2026-07-29, about seven weeks after Resemble had collapsed its entire tier ladder into a single pay-as-you-go Flex plan.
