Speechify free vs Premium

Speechify’s official pricing page, checked Nov 11, 2026, lists a Free plan and Premium at $29 / month, or $139 billed yearly. The official student article (updated July 14, 2026, checked the same day) says the free plan is “genuinely free, not a trial that flips to a charge after seven days,” and that no credit card is required.

$0Free: listen at speeds up to 1.5×, 10 “robotic sounding voices,” text-to-speech features only, listen anywhere
$29 / moPremium, billed monthly, on speechify.com
$139 / yearPremium annual billing. The student article calls that about $11.58 a month and “roughly 60% cheaper” than monthly. The pricing page is labeled “SAVE 60%” on yearly.
Speed / voicesFree caps at 1.5× and 10 voices. Premium: 1,000+ voices, 60+ languages. The pricing page says “listen at 5x faster speeds”; the July 14 student article says Premium listening “up to 4.5x.” Those are both official Speechify pages; we are repeating both rather than picking one.

The student article also says the free plan’s voices are “more basic,” fine for shorter reads, and that in practice “serious student users tend to settle at 2.5x to 3x,” which is above the free 1.5× cap. That is Speechify’s own guidance, not a test of ours.

Is the Speechify free plan a trial?
