How to get started with the right Artlist plan
There are three important questions you need to answer to choose the right Artlist pricing plan for your needs:
- Are you an individual freelance creator or part of a bigger team or company?
- Where do you publish your content and do you monetize it?
- What kind of creative assets do you need?
Let’s look at each of these questions and help you find the right Artlist plan for you.
The difference between Individual, Teams, and Business licenses
Are you an individual content creator, filmmaker, or freelancer? If so, an Individual license in your name is the right choice.
Do you work at a creative agency or a company with over 50 employees? In that case, you’ll need a Business license in the company’s name for all your content to be covered, no matter who in the organization is creating it. There are also Teams plans for companies with under 50 employees where you can get 2-7 seats.
Individual license | Teams license | Business license |
For individual content creators, freelancers, filmmakers, and client work | For creative teams of 2-7 people who are not part of a creative agency or a company with over 50 employees | For creative teams who are part of agencies or companies with over 50 employees |
This article will start by explaining the plans with an Individual license, then go into the options for Teams and Business licenses.
Where and how often do you publish your content?
If you’re just starting out as a content creator or YouTuber and have no more than one channel per social platform, the Music & SFX Social plan might be the right option for you. There are annual and monthly payment options available which can give you more flexibility if you’re still growing your income stream.
Just bear in mind that you’re only covered for content you publish while your plan is active. So, if you get a monthly subscription, you can download as many royalty-free songs and sound effects as you like for your projects, and upload them to your channel. But if for some reason you don’t renew the subscription at the end of the month, you won’t be able to publish new videos that contain Artlist assets.
A monthly plan can be good for checking out the platform but if you’re going to be uploading new content every month, an annual plan will be much better value.
If you’re an established YouTuber, freelancer doing client work, professional videographer, filmmaker, or in-house creative, the Music & SFX Social isn’t the right choice.
To publish content on multiple channels, get access to the rich catalog of royalty-free footage and templates, or generate AI voiceovers, you’ll need to look at the other Artlist pricing options.
What kind of creative assets do you need?
The Artlist catalog includes high-quality, royalty-free music, sound effects, footage, and video templates. You’ll also find an AI voice generator to create professional narrations for your videos with exclusive voices, a wide range of plugins to power up your editor, pro-grade LUTs, and advanced software for video and image editing.
Artlist Max is the all-in-one subscription that gives you access to absolutely everything you need to create amazing videos: the highest quality music, sound effects, AI voiceover, stock footage, video templates, LUTs, plugins, and editing software for images and video.
There are also dedicated plans if you only need royalty-free music and sound effects, AI voiceover, or footage, video templates, and LUTs.
Let’s dive in.
