## Logic Pro gets paid AI access
Apple updated Logic Pro with an option to buy more usage of Apple Intelligence features for a one-time purchase price of forty nine dollars and ninety nine cents.
## Why some features have limits
Intelligence Usage Packs let users access Apple Intelligence features that have usage limits because they rely on cloud-based AI models from OpenAI or Google Gemini.
## How the packs work
Packs can only be used by the Apple Account that purchased them. Family Sharing is not supported. Unused usage rolls over month to month but expires twelve months after purchase.
## More apps coming this month
Apple expects to add the buy more usage option to other Creator Studio apps this month, including Pixelmator Pro, Final Cut Pro, Motion, Pages, Keynote, and Numbers.
## Key takeaway

Apple introduced fifty dollar Intelligence Usage Packs for Logic Pro, letting users buy more access to cloud-based AI features with usage limits.
