In years to come, some advanced Apple Intelligence features could have a price tag attached.
In the forthcoming Apple Intelligence features, there was no mention of any fees or subscription charges. That could change as early as 2027.
AppleInsider has previously discussed that future Apple Intelligence features, particularly those for more advanced users, could come with a subscription or fee structure. That said, it is unlikely that users will see such features before 2027 at the earliest, according to Bloomberg‘s Power On newsletter.
The first set of features of Apple Intelligence include a combination of intelligent summarization abilities in programs like Mail and Messages, an improved Siri assistant, image generators, and more.
As with several of Apple’s “add-on” services, such as Apple TV+ or iCloud+, more advanced features of Apple Intelligence are likely with a price tag. These features would likely be for specialized areas, or for large-scale services leveraging the Private Cloud Compute technology.
Subscription or paid features of Apple Intelligence are most likely be aimed mostly at corporate users, the education sector, or other business or specialist users. Some analysts have speculated that such a subscription could cost users as much as $20 per month.
