Apple Adds $49.99 AI Usage Packs to Logic Pro

Apple has introduced a one-time purchase option for Logic Pro users who reach the app’s monthly limit for certain AI features. The pack costs $49.99 and is the first such offering in Apple’s Creator Studio apps.

Logic Pro’s AI assistant can help with music-production tasks, including starting a song, creating a vocal track from a prompt and working on an existing project. The amount of usage available depends in part on how complex a user’s exchanges with the assistant are.

Eligible Creator Studio subscribers across the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Brazil, France, Germany, India and Mexico may purchase additional usage. The purchase is linked to the Apple Account used to make it and cannot be shared through Family Sharing.

Any extra usage carries over between months, but expires 12 months after purchase. It is used only after a user has exhausted the regular monthly allowance. In Logic Pro, customers can check their usage and find the purchase option under Intelligence Features in the app’s menu.

Apple is expected to add the option to other Creator Studio apps in November, including Final Cut Pro and Pixelmator Pro. Pages, Keynote and Numbers are also due to gain access to Apple’s AI chatbot.
