Official pricing page, Free card verbatim: "Free $0 — Get started on your creative journey with text-based editing and give our AI tools a spin." Comparison table: Media minutes (per editor) on Free "60 minutes (1 hr) / month", versus 600 minutes on Hobbyist, 1800 minutes on Creator and 2400 minutes on Business; AI credits (per editor) on Free "100 (one-time)", versus 400 / 800 / 1500 per month on paid plans; Multi-language transcription 25 languages; Video export (local) resolution is 720p in the first column (Free), 1080p on Hobbyist, 4k on Creator and Business; Underlord is marked "Limited" on Free.

⚠️The 100 AI credits are granted once and are not refilled monthly, unlike paid plans. The official FAQ says media time counts uploaded and recorded files whether or not they are transcribed. In the official comparison table, the "Watermark-free video export" row is "Not included" for Free and "Included" for the other 3 plans, so the official page itself says free exports carry a watermark. Reachability from mainland China was not tested.
