Apple Sells $49.99 AI Usage Packs to Creator Studio Subscribers Across 8 Countries

Summary
$49.99 usage packs now let Creator Studio subscribers buy more AI capacity after hitting monthly limits in Apple's creative and productivity apps, marking one of its earliest direct attempts to monetize AI consumption.
The caps cover features in Keynote, Pages, Numbers, Pixelmator Pro, Freeform and Logic Pro, with entry-level allowances of 50 images, 250 shapes, 50 presentations and presenter notes for 700 slides.
Apple has rolled out the option in eight countries including the U.S., U.K., Canada, Germany and India, while some cloud-based features rely on outside providers such as OpenAI and Google.
Services revenue reached $31.57 billion in Apple's latest quarter, but the new packs' impact will depend on whether subscribers pay for AI tools that rivals often bundle more freely and whether pricing covers computing costs.
