| Plans | Free Free Trying a few clips a day. | Free Free Trying it on a few videos. |
Google AI Plus AUD $7.99/mo Light users who also want more Gemini. | Starter $15/mo Solo creators posting a few shorts a week. | |
Google AI ProOur pick AUD $32.99/mo Anyone making video most weeks. | ProOur pick $29/mo Anyone posting daily or running a team. | |
Google AI Ultra From AUD $149.99/mo Studios and agencies living in Flow daily. | Business Custom Agencies and media companies at volume. | |
| Which plan to pick | Google AI Pro is the sensible pick. The 1,000 Flow credits a month cover regular use of the fast model, and you get Gemini, 5TB of storage and YouTube Premium Lite for the same price. Ultra is for studios living in Flow every day. | Free is enough to see if the clips are any good. Starter removes the watermark, but Pro is the plan most people end up on: it adds the scheduler, all 9 posting platforms, extra brand templates, 16:9 and 1:1 reframing and export to Premiere. Business only makes sense for agencies or media teams. |
