Apple starts charging $49.99 for extra AI usage in Logic Pro
🎧 Listen to this story
Apple has started selling its Intelligence Usage Packs in Logic Pro for $49.99, or about R$ 300, allowing continued access to some AI features after the monthly limit is reached. The pack is consumed after the included allowance runs out and applies only to the Apple Account that bought it; Family Sharing is not supported. Unused credits roll over from month to month but expire 12 months after purchase. In Logic Pro, the limit affects an assistant that can start songs, set up vocal tracks and refine projects, according to The Verge. The features rely on cloud-based AI models from OpenAI or Google Gemini.
According to Tecnoblog, the pack is available in Brazil, Germany, Canada, the United States, France, India, Mexico and the United Kingdom. The option is expected to be added this month to other Creator Studio apps, including Pixelmator Pro, Final Cut Pro, Motion, Pages, Keynote and Numbers. Creator Studio costs R$ 39.90 per month in Brazil.
Why it matters · editorial interpretation
The separate charge ties continued use of AI features in creative apps to credits with an expiration date and no family sharing. As Apple plans to extend the model to other Creator Studio apps, users will need to consider this cost in addition to the monthly subscription.
