| Which plan to pick | The free plan handles most business needs. Pay for Premium only if you regularly fix video files, need to batch-process episodes, or already want Firefly Pro for images. | If you only edit video, the Premiere single-app plan is enough. If you also need Photoshop or After Effects, Creative Cloud Pro is better value than paying for apps one by one. The annual plan has an early-cancellation fee, so check it before signing up. | Start on Free to see if the capture works with your apps. If you document processes every week, Pro on yearly billing is enough for one person. Business only makes sense once several people are building guides or you need desktop capture. |
