What does each Artlist plan cover?
Music & SFX Social includes music, stems, sound effects and the Premiere Pro extension. Its license is for personal use: you can clear and monetize one personal channel per social platform.
Music Pro has music and stems without sound effects. Music & SFX Pro adds the sound effects library. Both carry Artlist’s Pro license, which covers up to 3 channels per social platform, unlimited YouTube videos, podcasts, websites, client work, paid ads, broadcast and TV. It’s meant for creators, freelancers and companies of up to 50 people.
AI plans are priced by monthly credits: 16,500 on Starter, 40,000 on Core and 80,000 on Creator. All three include access to 100+ models, the Image Editor, 3D model creation and Artlist Studio. Starter allows up to 1,650 AI images or 103 AI videos a month, and Creator up to 8,000 images or 500 videos. Core and Creator add unlimited generations on select models. The license covers commercial use.
Max bundles the whole catalog: music, stems, sound effects, footage, templates, LUTs, plugins and the AI tools. Its price depends on the credit tier you select, and the 80,000-credit tier unlocks unlimited generations on select models. The Pro license on Max covers up to 3 channels on any platform, commercial use, client work and global distribution.
Max Business costs $4,788 a year for 7 team members, the full stock catalog, 180,000 credits, legal indemnification and priority support. It’s licensed for companies with 50+ employees and for agencies. Larger custom business plans go through Artlist’s sales team.
Is Artlist cheaper monthly or annually?
Annual billing is cheaper on every plan that offers both. On the AI plans Artlist advertises 40% savings for paying yearly:
- AI Starter: $143.88 a year against $239.88 paying monthly, $96 less
- AI Core: $287.88 a year against $479.88 paying monthly, $192 less
- AI Creator: $499.99 a year against $839.88 paying monthly, $339.89 less
- Music & SFX Social: $119.88 a year against $179.88 paying monthly, $60 less
Music Pro and Music & SFX Pro are listed with annual prices only. Annual billing is also the only way to get the 2 extra months, since monthly plans don’t qualify.
What does Artlist cost with 2 extra months?
The partner offer extends your first annual term from 12 to 14 months at the same price. On Music & SFX Pro, $299 then covers 14 months, which is $21.36 a month instead of $24.92. On Music & SFX Social, $119.88 covers 14 months at $8.56 a month.
There’s no code to type. You open Artlist through the partner link, a banner confirms the 2 extra months, and you choose any annual plan.
Can you try Artlist before paying?
Artlist has a free account with no time limit and no card required. It lets you preview the music and footage catalog with watermarks and try a few AI generations. The Artlist free trial guide lists exactly what it includes.
If you subscribe and change your mind, Artlist refunds within 14 days of a payment, but only if you haven’t downloaded, generated or used anything. The rules are in Artlist cancellation and refunds.
