Prices in USD. ### Snipri pricing Free, Starter, Pro and Scale. Every plan's price and limits are on the [pricing page](https://www.snipri.com/pricing). ### Spikes Studio pricing - Basic: free, watermarked, 720p, clips stored for 7 days - PRO+: $32.99/month or $14.09/month billed yearly, 300 minutes per month (3,600 a year), 1080p, no watermark, clips stored for 90 days, scheduler - Enterprise: $115.99/month or $56.34/month billed yearly, 1,200 minutes per month, 1080p, clips stored with no limit, API on application ## Why choose Snipri over Spikes Studio ### Ten hour-long streams on the first plan Ten one-hour streams are 600 minutes, twice what PRO+ gives each month, so on Spikes Studio they need Enterprise at $115.99/month, or $56.34/month billed yearly. On Snipri they are ten videos, which Starter covers for $29.90/month. ### Retitle a clip after 90 days Spikes Studio stores clips for 7 days on Basic and 90 days on PRO+, with no limit only on Enterprise. Snipri keeps every clip on every plan, the free one included, so an old clip can be retitled and downloaded again. ### Both people in a podcast frame Spikes Studio names podcasters among its users. When a podcast is filmed as one wide shot, Snipri stacks the two speakers in a single 9:16 frame or cuts to the one talking, so nobody is cropped out. ### When Spikes Studio is the better fit - You want transitions, zooms and branded captions added to each clip for you - You want a scheduler for your social accounts on PRO+ - You need captions in a language Snipri lacks (Spikes Studio lists over 99) ## How Spikes Studio and Snipri work ### Spikes Studio Spikes Studio's home page speaks to aspiring creators, video professionals, small businesses and podcasters. 1.
