| Which plan to pick | Start on Plus for a month and watch the usage page closely, especially when the agent is working. Only move up to Pro once you know which models and workflows you'll use, because Veo clips cost about three times as much as Ray3.2. | 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. | Pro is the one for almost everyone: 2,500 credits is around 500 songs, with commercial rights and 20 downloads a month. Go Premier only if you need stems and the Studio editor, or you download more than 20 tracks a month. |
