Plan Comparison

|---|---|---|---|
| Videos per month | 10 | 20 | Custom volume |

Cost Per Video Breakdown
| Plan | Monthly Cost | Videos | Cost/Video |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | ~$110 | 10 | ~$11.00 |
| Creator | ~$220 | 20 | ~$11.00 |
The per-video cost is effectively the same across Starter and Creator. The Creator plan simply doubles your monthly output. Pro pricing is negotiated individually and likely offers a lower per-video rate at higher volumes.
Which Plan Is Right for You?
Starter (~$110/mo) — Best for solo freelancers testing the platform or producing ads for 1–2 clients. Ten videos per month is enough to build a portfolio and validate demand before scaling up.
Creator (~$220/mo) — Best for active freelancers or small agencies producing ad creative for multiple clients. Twenty videos per month supports 3–5 clients comfortably, especially when combined with bulk generation for A/B testing.
Pro (Custom) — Best for agencies and high-volume advertisers who need 50+ videos per month, access to the full 1,000+ actor library, and actor cloning capabilities.
Is Arcads Worth It?
The value depends entirely on how you use it. Here is a straightforward ROI calculation.
Freelance ad creation scenario:
- Arcads Creator plan: ~$220/month for 20 videos
- Your cost per video: ~$11
- Client charge per video: $75–150
- Revenue from 20 videos: $1,500–3,000
- Profit after Arcads cost: $1,280–2,780
Even at modest client rates, the margins are strong. Compare this to hiring human UGC creators at $80–500 per video — Arcads reduces your production cost by 85–95%.
Self-service e-commerce scenario:
- Without Arcads: 10 UGC videos/month at $100/each = $1,000
- With Arcads Starter: 10 videos/month = ~$110
- Monthly savings: ~$890
The math is clear for anyone producing video ads at any meaningful volume. The main question is whether the AI-generated quality meets your audience's expectations — and for short-form social ads, it generally does.
How Arcads Compares on Price
| Tool | Approximate Cost Per Video | Free Trial |
|---|---|---|
| Arcads | ~$11 | No |
| Creatify | ~$2–5 | Yes |
| HeyGen | ~$1.60/min | Yes (1 min) |
| Synthesia | ~$2–4/min | Demo only |
Arcads is the most expensive option per video, but it is specifically optimized for UGC-style ad content. If raw cost matters more than ad-specific realism, Creatify is a cheaper alternative worth evaluating.
