# Getting started (https://voicelabs.now/docs/getting-started)



VoiceLabs runs entirely in the browser — there is no download, no installer, and no local GPU requirement. Everything happens at [app.voicelabs.now](https://app.voicelabs.now).

## 1. Create an account [#1-create-an-account]

Go to [app.voicelabs.now/signup](https://app.voicelabs.now/signup) and sign up with an email address and password, or continue with Google.

<Callout type="info" title="Sign-in is required">
  VoiceLabs has no guest mode: generating audio requires a signed-in account. A free account is not
  empty-handed, though — see the allowance below.
</Callout>

## 2. Use your free monthly allowance [#2-use-your-free-monthly-allowance]

Every signed-in account gets **30 minutes of generated audio each month**, free — plus one saved cloned voice and downloads of everything you make. The allowance resets at the start of each month. Once it is used up, generating needs an active free trial or a Pro subscription.

## 3. Start the 7-day Pro trial (optional) [#3-start-the-7-day-pro-trial-optional]

VoiceLabs Pro is the single paid plan. From [app.voicelabs.now/pricing](https://app.voicelabs.now/pricing) you can start a 7-day free trial:

* A card is required to start, but you are not charged until the trial ends.
* After the trial it auto-renews at US$8/month (or US$59/year) until you cancel.
* Cancel anytime before the trial ends and you pay nothing.

See [Pricing](/pricing) for the full details.

## 4. Manage your subscription [#4-manage-your-subscription]

Everything billing-related lives at [app.voicelabs.now/billing](https://app.voicelabs.now/billing): your current plan, trial status, and **Manage subscription** for changes and cancellation. Cancel before renewal and the next charge never happens.
