Synthesia swaps Syren AI time cap for tiered video quotas, cuts Basic assets
What happened
Between the Nov 2, 2026 and Nov 9, 2026 captures of Synthesia's pricing page, Pulse recorded 2 changes: Syren AI video agent usage limit changed from a flat time cap (3 minutes per video, all plans) to a plan-tiered video-count quota: Basic 1 video, Starter ~24/year, Pro ~84/year, Enterprise Custom; AI Video Assets access on the Basic plan changed from a capped allowance (3/month) to fully unavailable (✗) in the feature comparison grid.
