After publishing a support article in early September outlining usage limits for some Apple Intelligence features, the company updated Logic Pro with an option to “Buy More Usage” for a one-time purchase price of $49.99, as discovered 9to5Mac. It has a built-in AI assistant to do things like “start a new song, set up a vocal track from a single prompt, or refine an active project.”
These intelligence usage packages, as Apple calls them, will allow users to continue accessing certain Apple intelligence features that have usage limits because they rely on cloud-based AI models from OpenAI or Google Gemini. Usage packs can only be used by the Apple account that purchased them (Family Sharing is not supported), and as Apple explains on its website, any additional unused usage will carry over from month to month, but will expire 12 months after your purchase.
For Logic Pro, Apple says the usage limit “is affected by the complexity of the conversations you have with the assistant.” Users who are left without access can find the option to purchase an Intelligence Usage package in the Intelligence Features > Show Usage section of the app’s main menu. Currently, only Logic Pro has the option to purchase more usage, but it is expected to be added to other Apple Creator Studio apps this month, including Pixelmator Pro, Final Cut Pro, Motion, plus Pages, Keynote, and Numbers that will have access to Apple’s AI chatbot.
