Opus Clip Pricing 2026: Plans and Real Cost per Video
OpusClip's cheapest paid plan is Starter at $15/month for 150 credits, monthly only. One credit is one minute of source video, so a clip from a 1-minute source costs about $0.10, or $0.05 on Pro billed yearly. The catch is that you pay for the minutes you upload, not the clips you get, and it only works from footage you already have.

Credits
What the credits actually buy
"1 credit = 1 minute of video processing." Credits measure the source video you upload, not the clips you get. "Credit quota resets every month from your subscription date"; Starter credits roll over one more month and Pro credits roll over for 2 months.
The derived number
What one 8-second video really costs
The unit: one captioned clip from a source video of up to 1 minute (1 credit = 1 minute of source video processed). Plan price divided by what one output consumes.
| Plan | Cost of one | How we got it |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $0.10 | Source of 1 minute or less = 1 credit; $15 / 150 = $0.10 |
| Pro (monthly) | $0.10 | $29 / 300 = $0.097 per credit |
| Pro (annual) | $0.05 | $14.50 / 300 = $0.048 per credit |
Heavy use
What 100 videos a month cost
| Plan | 100 a month | How we got it |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $15 | Fits in 150 credits if the 100 clips come from 150 minutes of source video or less (for example five 30-minute podcasts). Clip yield per source is not guaranteed. |
| Free | n/a | 60 credits a month, watermark, no editing and exports that expire after 3 days. |
One plan, every model
Paying for OpusClip and three other AI tools?
Hooked Pro is $29 a month for 1,000 credits across Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0, Seedance 2.0, Nano Banana Pro and GPT Image 2, plus AI UGC ads, captions and TikTok slideshows in the same plan. Or pay $89 once for the Studio and run it on your own API keys, at the provider's price.
Same yardstick
The same maths on Hooked
For clipping long videos you already have, OpusClip is cheaper: about $0.10 per source minute on Starter, against 8 credits ($0.23) per captioned clip on Hooked. OpusClip does not generate new footage or avatars. Hooked is the better fit when you need to create the video too (UGC ads, slideshows, generated clips with several models in one $29 plan), or want to pay provider cost through Studio ($89 one-time, bring your own API keys).
| On Hooked | Credits | Pro, monthly | Pro, yearly | Studio, your own key | 100 a month |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Captioned short clip | 8 | $0.23 | $0.19 | n/a | $29 (Pro) |
Pro is $29/month or $290/year for 1,000 credits a month; extra credits come in packs from $19 for 500. The Studio is $89 once and runs on your own API keys, so you pay the model provider directly at their rate.
