Opus Clip pricing and what each plan covers for long videos

Opus Clip pricing in November 2026 is Free with watermarked exports, Starter at $15 a month, Pro at $29 a month and Business on custom quotes. The pricing page does not list monthly processing minutes or credits, and caps uploads by file size (10 GB on Free and Starter, 30 GB on Pro and Business) rather than by minutes. So the real question is how many long videos a plan covers, which you have to confirm with Opus Clip before you subscribe.

Turn your uploads into a number before you pay

Work out your monthly source minutes first: videos per month times their length. A weekly 45 minute video is about 195 minutes a month. Two 75 minute podcast episodes a week is about 650. Then ask Opus Clip support or read the plan details for how many of those minutes each tier processes, and whether a 90 minute file is treated as one unit or many.

If the answer is vague, assume the low plans are sized for occasional clipping and price the one above it. That is the common way a $15 plan becomes a $29 plan within two months.

Where the bill drifts

  • Free-plan watermark. Fine for a test, not for a channel.
  • File size is not length. A 10 GB limit says little about a 3 hour stream in 1080p, which can exceed it.
  • Seats. Starter has no team seats, so a second editor means Pro.
  • Approval and workspaces. Business is custom priced, so an agency with sign-offs should ask for a quote early.

When to look at a different billing unit

Opus Clip is a good fit for creators who clip a handful of videos a month and want a known name at a low entry price. If you publish long videos every week, run a channel on autopilot or deliver clips to clients who approve them, a plan billed by source minutes is easier to size. ShortsCreator Creator is $49 a month ($24 billed yearly) for 150 source minutes, Studio is $149 ($74 yearly) for 500 minutes with channel autopilot, and Agency is $499 ($249 yearly) for 1,800 minutes with client workspaces and reviewer approval. Each suggested moment shows the exact quote, a 0 to 100 score and the reason.

FAQ

Opus Clip lists Free at $0 with watermarked exports, Starter at $15 a month, Pro at $29 a month and Business on custom pricing. The page we checked does not show yearly prices or monthly processing minutes, so confirm what each plan covers for your video length before subscribing.

Opus Clip has a free plan, but exports carry a watermark and the limits are low, so it suits testing rather than a channel. Watermark-free export starts on Starter at $15 a month. ShortsCreator has no free plan and offers a one-time demo on your own video without a card.

It is worth it for creators who clip a few videos a month and want a low entry price. It is less clear for weekly long-video channels and agencies, because the pricing page does not state monthly minutes or an approval workflow. Test one video you know well first.

The pricing page limits uploads by file size, 10 GB on Free and Starter and 30 GB on Pro and Business, and does not give a length in minutes. A long 1080p recording can reach those sizes, so check with Opus Clip if you upload full podcasts or streams.

ShortsCreator Agency is built for client work with 1,800 source minutes, 25 channels, 10 seats, a workspace and brand kit per client, and reviewer approval before publishing, at $499 a month or $249 billed yearly. Opus Clip Business is custom priced, so compare quotes.
