Frequently Asked Questions
How does Amazon Polly charge for text-to-speech usage?
Amazon Polly bills by the number of characters processed. Different voice families use different rates, so Standard, Neural, Long-Form, and Generative usage should be modeled separately.
Why does this calculator focus only on standard commercial TTS usage?
This version is intentionally scoped to the core commercial text-to-speech workload. It does not separately model Speech Marks or GovCloud pricing so the form stays aligned to the most common billing path.
