The short version

  • Only Play.ht has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: ConnectWise rMM, backup and cybersecurity products require filling out a quote request form rather than showing a price; only ScreenConnect remote support pricing is shown directly on the site, per connectwise.com, August 2026; Play.ht the vendor's own pricing FAQ as captured by the Internet Archive on 20 January 2022 states words do not roll over between subscription cycles and reset each renewal, that payments already made are non-refundable, and that running out of words requires a separate one-time purchase; no dollar figures appear in this capture but the mechanism is stated plainly by the vendor
