Who is unlimited video editing for?
It works best for companies with consistent, repeating content needs — not one-off projects.
SaaS Marketing Teams
Product demos, explainer videos, YouTube content, paid ads — all types, all in one subscription. No vendor management.
6–20 videos/moB2B Agencies
Multiple client brands on one plan. Separate brand kits, consistent quality, no per-brand retainer markups.
10–40 videos/moContent-Led Brands
YouTube + Reels + podcast + ads from one source. Consistent editing style builds brand recognition faster.
8–25 videos/moFounder-Led Startups
Stop spending 20+ hours/month editing. Focus on the business; get professional videos at a cost that scales.
4–12 videos/moE-commerce / DTC
High-frequency video ads, UGC edits, product showcases. Test 8 hooks on the same budget as 2 agency ads.
12–40 videos/moCoaches & Educators
Course content, YouTube, webinar clips, and testimonials. Professional edits without hiring a full-time editor.
4–15 videos/moWhy unlimited plans win for multiple brands
Agencies and multi-product companies pay per-brand retainers to agencies and manage separate freelancers per client. There is a better way.
One subscription, unlimited brand kits
Each brand gets its own font stack, colour palette, motion templates, and tone-of-voice brief — maintained permanently. No re-briefing every project.
Consistent quality across all clients
The same editor team handles all brands, so quality is consistent. Freelancers sourced per-brand introduce style variance that hurts credibility.
Single invoice vs 10 vendor relationships
One monthly payment instead of managing freelancer contracts, agency retainers, and ad-hoc invoices per brand. Accounting loves it.
Scale without cost scaling
Adding a 5th client brand to your subscription doesn't increase your monthly cost. Agency retainers and freelancer pools do.
