Apple’s $50 Intelligence Usage Packs extend access to some AI features

Apple has introduced a one-off $49.99 “Intelligence Usage Pack” in Logic Pro, giving users more access to certain AI features after they reach usage limits. The move matters because some Apple Intelligence tools rely on cloud-based models from OpenAI or Google Gemini, so their use is capped.

The additional usage is tied to the Apple Account that buys it and cannot be shared through Family Sharing. Unused usage rolls over each month but expires 12 months after purchase; in Logic Pro, the limit depends on how complex conversations with its AI assistant are. Apple is expected to add the purchase option to other Creator Studio apps, including Pixelmator Pro, Final Cut Pro and Motion, as well as Pages, Keynote and Numbers.
