CapCut pricing

CapCut is free to start, but AI credits, team seat counts and usage add-ons make the paid price less straightforward.

CapCut pricing FAQ

No. CapCut lists a free plan with free templates and basic editing tools. You pay for Pro, Ultra or Teams if you want their listed AI-credit allowances, 1 TB storage and Pro features; the free tier is positioned for everyday editing and exploration.

It depends on what you need. Free covers basic editing and templates. Pro is aimed at regular solo creators and includes 650 monthly AI credits and 1 TB storage. Ultra includes 8,645 credits, while Teams adds Brand Kit and shared Pro features for its seats.

Why did the US ban CapCut?

The pricing and product information we reviewed does not establish that CapCut is currently banned in the US or explain a ban. We cannot verify that premise from these sources. For the latest legal or availability status, check current official notices rather than treating the claim as settled.

Why is CapCut so expensive?

The paid plans bundle AI credits, storage and Pro features, while Ultra adds a much larger monthly credit allowance and exclusive AI features. Some Seedance generation also has separate per-second charges, and the price for buying extra AI credits is not published. Whether that spend makes sense depends on how much you use those features.
