What Udio costs, in plain terms
Udio runs on monthly credits. The Free plan costs $0, needs no credit card and gives 10 credits per day, 100 per month, with a cap of 3 full-length songs per day. Standard costs $10 per month, or $96 per year (which works out to $8 per month), and includes 2,400 credits per month. Pro costs $30 per month, or $288 per year (which works out to $24 per month), and includes 6,000 credits per month.
