What's free?
The desktop editor is free on macOS and Windows: importing, transcription, cutting and export all run on your machine at no charge. In the cloud, searching stock footage and validating an edit are free too — an agent can check its work before it spends anything. You start with $20.00 in credits, no card.
How does render billing work?
Rendering bills by output minute at $0.50 a minute, rounded up. A clip up to a minute costs $0.50; a two-and-a-half-minute cut rounds up to three and costs $1.50. 4K counts double and 720p counts half, so you pay for the video you actually ship, not for a plan tier.
Do I pay for a render that fails?
A failed render is not charged as a completed render. Other completed cloud operations, such as transcription, Director runs, or previews, have their own usage charges. Validate the composition for free before rendering to catch structural errors early.
Is there a subscription or a seat count?
Neither. CueFrame is prepaid credits against measured usage — no monthly minimum, no per-seat pricing, and nothing to cancel. Top up when you want more.
Do credits expire?
No. Credits stay on your balance until you spend them.
What if my volume is large or I need SSO?
Contact sales for volume pricing and requirements such as SSO, audit logs, SLAs, and dedicated support. We’ll scope the offer around your expected usage and team’s needs.
