Pricing is completely out of control
Pricing is completely out of control I was using Opus Clip on the free tier and I was blocked from downloading a short, I thought hey why not upgrade and try out some of the other features. I’m going around trying the extra features for the next week or so and I’m not getting any error messages when I set up scheduling and b-roll for various videos. I come back to find none of my scheduled posts have worked and all of the videos lined up to receive b-roll had failed. Then I looked closer at the tiers, it seems I upgraded to their Starter Tier for $15 month. None of the features I was trying to use were on that plan. So then I’m thinking what can I actually do on my $15 plan, the only difference I can see is that there is no longer a watermark. I considered upgrading to the Pro plan to get scheduling and B-Roll but you only get a good price if you pay $170 upfront for a year otherwhise it’s $29 a month. Who are these prices for, creators that are already very successful. I don’t understand why this company will not cater for the smaller creator which amounts to millions of hobbyists. Opus clip in their lack of wisdom provide a ‘Starter tier’ at $15 which is more expensive or matches other a.i subscriptions like Suno etc.. and you know what the so called Starter tier is absolutely miserable, you can’t do anything special on it. I feel like this company is destined to fold and I hope they do, it would be nothing for them to implement a tier for smaller creators, the starter tier should be that solution, the user could have a limited number of B-Roll and scheduling. Thoroughly unimpressed, to think that I have been a customer since the start and even after acquiescing to the prompts to upgrade and paying $15 a month I still don’t get to try their B-Roll feature or scheduled posting.

Thank you Francis for the specific suggestions of what you would like to see be added to the Starter plan. While you aren't yet able to schedule your clips on the Starter plan, you are able to directly publish them to your YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram accounts. Both AI B-roll and stock B-roll has been added to the starter plan with a daily limit.
