D-ID is the talking-photo and Studio avatar product in this batch, with a cheap annual entry and a separate API pricing page. A still image or a Studio presenter becomes a speaking clip. Creators comparing a low Lite or Pro sticker, and developers comparing an API, are the people this check informs. On 2026-10-17 a browser snapshot opened d-id.com/pricing/studio with the annual toggle selected. The monthly toggle was not clicked. Monthly list prices for the same plans are not observed. This page does not invent them. A figure the annual view did not show is not observed.

Who it's for

D-ID fits a creator who wants a talking photo or a Studio avatar at the annual prices printed on Lite and Pro, and a builder who needs API access mentioned on the Studio cards. Trial is $0 for 14 days, with 3 minutes across Videos, Agents, Translate, and API, a watermark, API access, and personal use. That is a short personal test, not a publishing plan and not a forever free grant. Lite is the annual entry with a D-ID watermark and 10 minutes a month on the selected step. Pro is the annual step that names a commercial license, an AI watermark, and one voice clone, with 15 minutes a month on the selected step.

A training org that also buys learner seats is looking at a different purchase. HeyGen is the creator-tilted avatar studio with a checked translation table and an official MCP URL. Creatify is the product-URL ad studio. ElevenLabs is the voice when one included clone is not the speaker. CapCut cuts the export. OpusClip and Submagic clip a long recording. They do not animate a still.

The matching paths are AI avatar for a presenter and UGC ads when the talking photo is a spokesperson test. Pro is the first card in this extract that prints a commercial license. Trial prints personal use. Lite's commercial terms were not observed.

What it does

The Studio page prices Videos, and the Trial line also names Agents, Translate, and API inside one 3-minute pool. Lite, Pro, and Advanced then show a selected credit step and a minute allowance together. This check does not know whether the credits and the minutes are one meter or two gates. Both numbers are printed. Neither is converted into the other.

Lite, on the annual view, had 40 credits selected. Buttons for 52 and 64 credits were also there. Their prices were not observed, because only the selected step was read. The selected Lite step is 10 minutes a month, with a D-ID watermark. A first-month "Unlimited videos" fair-use footnote is on that plan. The fair-use rules beyond that label were not observed. Do not plan a month of unlimited renders from the word unlimited.

Pro had 60 credits selected, with 100 and 240 as alternate buttons. Alternate prices were not observed. The selected step is 15 minutes a month, a commercial license, an AI watermark, and voice clone 1. What "AI watermark" removes or adds, compared with the D-ID watermark on Lite, was not observed as a definition. Advanced had 400 credits selected and 100 minutes a month. Alternate Advanced credit buttons were not observed. Advanced's watermark rule, voice-clone count, and commercial-license sentence were not observed. Enterprise is "Let's talk." The enterprise bundle was not observed.

Resolution, stock avatar counts, language counts, and a maximum length per render were not observed. Translate is named on the Trial pool. The language list behind Translate, and whether Lite, Pro, or Advanced include it, were not observed.

Pricing tiers

Verified on 2026-10-17 from the annual toggle at d-id.com/pricing/studio. The monthly toggle was not opened. If a monthly checkout shows different stickers, those stickers are not the table below, and this page will not guess them.

Plan	Annual view	Selected allowance	What the card named
Trial	$0, 14 days	3 minutes for Videos, Agents, Translate, and API	Watermark, API access, personal use
Lite	$4.7/mo, $56 billed annually, labeled 20% off	40 credits selected; 10 min/mo	Also 52 and 64 credit buttons, prices not observed. D-ID watermark. First-month "Unlimited videos" fair-use footnote.
Pro	$16/mo, $191/yr, labeled 45% off	60 credits selected; 15 min/mo	Also 100 and 240 credit buttons, prices not observed. Commercial license. AI watermark. Voice clone 1.
Advanced	$108/mo, $1,293/yr	400 credits selected; 100 min/mo	A percent-off label was not observed on this card. Watermark, clone count, and commercial terms not observed.
Enterprise	Let's talk	not observed	Contact path.

Three multiplications show that the billed totals and the monthly displays are close and not identical. They are arithmetic, not a correction of the page. $4.7 times 12 is $56.40. The printed annual total is $56. $16 times 12 is $192. The printed Pro total is $191. $108 times 12 is $1,296. The printed Advanced total is $1,293. This directory stores both numbers in each pair. It does not round one into the other, and it does not declare a rounding rule the page did not print.

The percent labels are also not a back-door to a monthly list price. Lite says 20% off. Pro says 45% off. The price those percents discount was on the monthly toggle, which was not opened, so the undiscounted monthly stickers are not observed. Dividing $4.7 by 0.8, or $16 by 0.55, would invent those stickers. Advanced did not show a percent in the notes used here.

A separate API pricing page exists at d-id.com/pricing/api. Studio plans already include API minutes. The dollar stickers on that API page were not observed on this pass. Do not paste a per-second API rate from memory or from another vendor. Whether the included API minutes are the same 10, 15, or 100 minute grants, or a second pool, was not observed.

Pros

The annual Studio view prints dollar amounts for Trial, Lite, Pro, and Advanced, so a solo test has a price before Enterprise.
Trial states the 14-day length, the 3-minute pool, personal use, a watermark, and API access in one place.
Pro states a commercial license and a voice-clone count of 1 next to $16 a month on the annual view and $191 a year.
Lite and Pro show the selected credit step and the alternate buttons, so a buyer can see that 40 and 60 are choices, not the only packs, even though the other pack prices were not read.
A separate API pricing page is acknowledged, and Studio access to API minutes is stated, which keeps the developer path visible while its prices stay unmarked.

Cons

The monthly toggle was not opened. Anyone paying month to month cannot take these stickers as the monthly list.
The displayed monthly price times 12 does not equal the printed annual total on Lite, Pro, or Advanced. Both figures have to be read.
Credit buttons besides the selected step have no prices in this note. Choosing 52, 64, 100, or 240 credits requires the live control.
Lite's first-month unlimited line is a fair-use footnote. The cap inside that footnote was not observed.
No MCP server URL was observed. An agent cannot be pointed at a D-ID MCP endpoint from this check.
API page prices were not observed. "API access" on Trial is not a rate card.

Usage flow

Start on the annual Studio view, not on an assumed monthly sticker. Read Trial as $0, 14 days, 3 minutes shared by Videos, Agents, Translate, and API, personal use, with a watermark. Render one clip at the length you post.
If the test needs a month of minutes, read the selected annual step you will actually buy: Lite at $4.7 a month ($56 billed annually) for 40 credits and 10 minutes, Pro at $16 a month ($191 a year) for 60 credits and 15 minutes, or Advanced at $108 a month ($1,293 a year) for 400 credits and 100 minutes. Open the monthly toggle in the product before you compare a month-to-month invoice. This page did not.
Export, then caption and reframe in CapCut. If one voice clone on Pro is not enough, or the plan you chose did not print a clone count, make the read in ElevenLabs only after D-ID accepts that audio. External audio by plan was not observed.

Workflow usage

On AI avatar, D-ID is the talking-photo option at the annual Lite and Pro prices above. HeyGen stays the default presenter on that workflow when you need the HeyGen credit card, the translation table checked on 2026-10-16, or the remote MCP URL HeyGen printed. D-ID's Translate feature is named inside the Trial's 3-minute pool. No language count was on this Studio snapshot, so that word is not a language table you can budget from. Keep scripts inside the minute line of the selected step: 10, 15, or 100. Credits may bind you first. The credits-to-minutes formula was not observed.

On UGC ads, D-ID fits a spokesperson test when Pro's commercial license is the term you need. Trial is personal use. Lite did not print a commercial license in this extract. Creatify remains the default when the input is a product URL and the output is an ad variation. A D-ID still of a real person needs the same consent you would require on any other avatar tool. The Studio page did not print a consent workflow. That gap is not observed, not a waiver.

OpusClip and Submagic belong after a long talking video exists and you want captioned clips. They are not the mouth on the still.

Underlying models

No avatar engine and no speech model was named on the annual Studio snapshot. "Studio," "Agents," "Translate," and "voice clone" are product words. They are not a model card. This page does not list D-ID as a host for a third-party generator. Whether Agents calls another vendor's model was not observed. When the shot has to be a named video model, generate it elsewhere and bring the file back. When the voice has to be a catalog speaker beyond the one clone Pro names, use ElevenLabs. Those hops do not draw on the 40, 60, or 400 selected credits until D-ID prints a model name and a burn.

API and MCP

has_api is true. Trial lists API access inside the 3-minute pool. The synthesis of this check says Studio plans already include API minutes. A separate pricing page is at d-id.com/pricing/api. This entry does not set api_url to that pricing URL. A pricing page is not a base URL, an auth scheme, or a reference. The developer host, the header name, and the per-minute or per-credit API prices were not observed on this pass.

mcp.official is false. No official MCP server URL was observed, so there is no mcp.url. Do not invent a path under d-id.com.

HeyGen and Creatify printed official MCP endpoints on their own checks. ElevenLabs is the voice API when the face stays in D-ID and the read is built elsewhere. A D-ID Studio login does not authenticate those other products. CapCut had no public creator API on its check. OpusClip lists limited API access without a base URL in its extract. Submagic names a Business + API plan and did not confirm a public docs URL on its check. None of those facts fill in D-ID's API rate card.

Similar tools

HeyGen is the fuller creator avatar studio, with plan cards that were checked on a monthly and annual basis and an MCP URL. D-ID's checked advantage in this pass is the low annual Lite and Pro display, plus API minutes included on Studio, with the API price page still unread.
Creatify builds ads from a product URL. D-ID builds a talking photo or a Studio presenter. Use Creatify when the URL is the input. Use D-ID when the still or the Studio actor is the asset.
ElevenLabs supplies voices beyond the single clone Pro printed. CapCut supplies the timeline.
OpusClip and Submagic supply clips and captions from a long file. They do not replace the 3-minute Trial or the minute lines on Lite, Pro, and Advanced.

FAQ

Are these D-ID prices the monthly prices?

They are the annual Studio view opened on 2026-10-17. Lite shows $4.7 a month and $56 billed annually. Pro shows $16 a month and $191 a year. Advanced shows $108 a month and $1,293 a year. The monthly toggle was not clicked. Monthly list prices are not observed. Do not compute them from the 20% or 45% labels.

Why doesn't $4.7 times 12 equal $56?

Because the page printed both figures, and they differ by a fraction of a dollar. $4.7 times 12 is $56.40. The billed total on the card is $56. Pro is $16 times 12, which is $192, beside a printed $191. Advanced is $108 times 12, which is $1,296, beside a printed $1,293. Keep both. Checkout charges the checkout total.

Does Lite include a commercial license and a voice clone?

Those lines were printed on Pro: a commercial license, an AI watermark, and voice clone 1. Lite printed a D-ID watermark, 10 minutes a month, and a first-month unlimited-videos fair-use footnote. Lite's commercial terms and clone count were not observed. Trial printed personal use. Advanced's license and clone count were not observed.

How many API minutes does Pro include, and what does the API page cost?

Studio plans include API minutes, and Trial includes API access inside a 3-minute pool. The API pricing page exists. Its stickers were not observed. Whether Pro's 15 Studio minutes are the API allowance was not observed. MCP was not observed.

What do the other credit buttons cost?

Lite also showed 52 and 64. Pro also showed 100 and 240. This pass recorded prices only for the selected steps: 40, 60, and 400 credits. The other button prices are not observed. Open the control before you budget a larger pack.
