Pricing history

Launches internationally as ByteDance's answer to its Chinese sibling app Jianying

2022

First Pro subscription tier launches with premium templates and effects

Oct 2026

Drops the Standard tier, adds a top Ultra tier ($79/mo, 8,645 AI credits), and reprices Teams to $12.49/seat/mo (2-seat minimum) from a flat $24.99/user

Should you pay for it?

The free tier of CapCut is good enough for casual use. Pay $19.99/mo only when you start hitting daily caps or need access to the better models.
