Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

VAT charges - All prices exclude VAT (Value Added Tax) which varies by location and is added at checkout. This can add 15-25% to the stated price depending on your country

2

Monthly vs annual pricing premium - Monthly plans cost 27-36% more than annual billing (Standard: €15/mo vs €11/mo annual, Pro: €49/mo vs €33/mo annual)

3

Copyright restrictions on lower tiers - Free and Standard plans do NOT grant copyright ownership; AIVA retains copyright, limiting commercial opportunities and requiring platform restrictions

4

Platform monetization restrictions - Standard plan only allows monetization on YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, and Instagram. Other platforms (podcasts, films, games, commercial projects) require Pro plan upgrade

5

Download limit overage - No published overage pricing; hitting monthly limits (3, 15, or 300 downloads) requires waiting until next billing cycle or upgrading to higher tier

6

Format restrictions on lower tiers - Free and Standard plans only provide MP3 and MIDI formats. WAV and other high-quality formats require Pro plan, limiting professional audio production use

7

Track duration caps - Free plan limited to 3-minute tracks, Standard to 5 minutes, Pro to 5 minutes 30 seconds. Longer compositions require stitching multiple tracks together

8

Student discount verification - 30% annual discount and 15% monthly discount available for students/schools but requires manual verification through contact form or live chat, adding friction

9

Enterprise pricing opacity - No published enterprise pricing; requires sales contact with typical markups of 2-5x Pro plan pricing for high-volume commercial use

10

No refund policy clarity - User reports suggest difficulty obtaining refunds; cancellation and refund terms are not prominently disclosed on pricing page

11

Attribution requirement on free tier - Free plan requires credit to AIVA, adding friction for public releases and potentially affecting brand presentation

12

No API access on standard plans - API access for automated music generation not available on published tiers; likely requires Enterprise plan negotiation

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What hidden costs should I budget for with AIVA?

Beyond the license fee, budget for implementation ($5K-$100K+), training ($500-$2K per user), premium support (15-20% of license), and admin costs. Most companies see 40-60% higher total cost than the listed price.

02 Does AIVA charge for implementation?

AIVA doesn't include implementation in the license cost. Implementation is typically done by partners and costs range from $5,000 for basic setup to $100,000+ for enterprise deployments with customization.

03 How much does AIVA support cost?

Basic support is included, but premium support (faster response times, 24/7 availability) typically adds 15-20% to your annual contract. This can be thousands of dollars per year for larger deployments.

04 Are there storage costs with AIVA?

Most AIVA plans include limited storage. Once you exceed the included amount, you'll pay overage fees which can range from $50-$500+ per month depending on data volume.

05 What add-ons cost extra with AIVA?

Many features marketed as part of AIVA are actually add-ons: advanced reporting, API access, integrations, and specialized modules. Each can add $10-$100+ per user per month.
