The short version

  • Only Tana has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Magnific credit costs vary widely by output type, from 15 credits per 3 seconds of sound effects to up to 5,600 credits for a single video generation, making total cost hard to predict from the headline plan price, as of August 2026.; Tana the free plan hosts only 5 meetings a month with AI transcripts and summaries
