Highlight Analysts believe Apple might charge $10-20 per month for advanced Apple Intelligence features. It potentially will require an Apple One subscription for full access. No official indication that Apple plans to charge for Apple Intelligence. Nothing in this world is free. And Apple fans are certainly not going to be pleased hearing about this new cost speculation that they might have to bear. Analysts believe that Apple might eventually charge for some of its more advanced Apple Intelligence features, potentially costing users $10-20 per month. One scenario they suggest is that Apple could require an Apple One subscription to access the full range of AI capabilities. This approach would mirror the strategy used by companies like OpenAI and Microsoft, where a limited number of AI features are free, but a subscription is needed to unlock the full set. Two analysts raised the monetization prospect when speaking to CNBC. Analysts Believe Apple Intelligence Might Cost Up to $20/month. Neil Shah, partner at Counterpoint Research, said investment in AI is expensive and Apple will want to pass that cost onto its users Shah said Apple could charge between $10 and $20 for Apple Intelligence, potentially as part of Apple One, for more premium AI features . “Apple is one of the few connected devices companies that has successfully monetized the value-added services it offers,” Ben Wood, chief of research at CCS Insight, told CNBC this week. “As a result, it has set a precedent with its users that they have to pay for more premium services. On this basis, it can’t be ruled out that Apple may choose to charge for more advanced features within its Apple Intelligence offering.” However, there's no indication that Apple plans to charge for any of the Apple Intelligence features being rolled out this year or for the new Siri features expected early next year. If that were the case, Apple would have likely announced it by now. While the idea of a paid Apple Intelligence tier in the future can’t be completely dismissed, especially given the company's focus on growing its service revenue, Apple will need to strike a balance. The challenge will be determining which AI features should be included to drive hardware sales and which could be offered as optional, subscription-based services. Craig Federighi summed up Apple Intelligence during the WWDC keynote: Apple Intelligence is the personal intelligence system that puts powerful generative models right at the core of your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. There are five key pillars of Apple Intelligence that, in combination, distinguish it from other AI (artificial intelligence) tools that already exist.
