How we checked this

We read the pricing and feature pages for each product and checked pricing and limits on October 12, 2026. Clypse prices, credits, clip limits, and export details come from our product and billing data, including the Free, Pro, and Studio plans observed that day. We matched like-for-like plans and billing periods, and separated published capabilities from hands-on testing. Where a product page did not state a detail, we left it out rather than infer it. Recommendations therefore reflect documented product information, while workflow impressions are based on practical use.
