Pricing
Founding beta — pricing applies when paid plans open. We are in the founding beta: every plan below applies once paid plans open, and every price is owner-approved today, not a future estimate. Model usage is bring-your-own provider (subscription, API, or local compute). There is no hidden inference markup.
Standalone products
Monthly price shown first; the annual price is 2 months free versus paying monthly, every month.
Learning
Learn while making: lessons, exercises, and feedback grounded in the actual project rather than separated into a generic course.
$29/month
or $290/yr — 2 months free
7-day free trial, card required
Story
Develop and finish long-form stories in a project that keeps its own canon, structure, and editorial history instead of losing them to the chat window.
$39/month
or $390/yr — 2 months free
7-day free trial, card required
Prep
Turn a script, treatment, or book into evidence-linked coverage, breakdowns, department packets, and production-ready project intelligence.

or $490/yr — 2 months free
7-day free trial, card required
Edit
Bring generated and traditional media into a governed DaVinci Resolve workflow with explicit staging, protected operations, and readback.

Film
Carry an approved story through scenes, shots, generation, assembly, and professional finishing without inventing a second identity system for the media.

or $790/yr — 2 months free
7-day free trial, card required
Launch
Carry the same project intelligence into the website, edition, campaign, and release materials instead of rebuilding the story for marketing.

Auteur Studio — capacity plans
Studio is sold through capacity plans, not a per-product bundle price. Base capacity comes included with every standalone product above, at no extra charge; a Studio plan (or Enterprise) always supersedes Base.
Every Studio plan includes every released product — Story, Prep, Film, Edit, Learning, Launch, Build — plus shared memory, canon, research and evaluation. Game is included as a developer preview.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Members | 1 | 1 | 1 | 5 |
| Concurrent runners | 1 | 2 | 6 | 12 |
| Active cloud workspaces | 2 | 3 | 8 | 15 |
| Local Nodes | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
| Price | Included with every standalone product | $249/mo or $2,490/yr | $399/mo or $3,990/yr | $799/mo or $7,990/yr |

Enterprise
Enterprise is sales-assisted only — no self-serve checkout, no published price. Two offers, both by arrangement:
Enterprise Cloud
For organizations that need contracts and control: dedicated capacity on our infrastructure, pooled runners, more members, organization policy, invoicing and annual agreements. Single sign-on and audit export are available by arrangement.
Enterprise Private
Custom, fully private builds hosted on your own servers, running local AI models -- your projects, data and models never leave your building. Available by arrangement for qualified corporate partners with legal or compliance requirements.
Trials
A 7-day free trial (card required) is available for Story, Prep, Film, Edit, Launch, Learning, Build, and Studio (trial capacity matches Studio Solo's limits). Bring your own AI providers during the trial — no Auteur-managed inference is included.
Bring your own provider
Model usage is bring-your-own provider (subscription, API, or local compute). There is no hidden inference markup.
Not offered
Auteur Science is alpha and is not offered at any price. Auteur Game is a developer preview with no price yet — join the waitlist from its product page.
Questions
Does the annual price ever change once I am on it? Standard Annual is simply 2 months free versus paying monthly, at the same monthly rate already shown above. Founding Annual on Studio is locked for as long as your subscription stays active.
What happens to my Founding Annual rate later? It stays locked while your subscription stays active. The Founding Annual offer itself is limited to the first 100 founding accounts or the first 60 days, whichever comes first.
Can I get a refund? Founding Annual on Studio carries a 30-day full refund. See our Refund and Cancellation Policy for the general policy.
Do I need my own AI provider account? Yes. Every plan is bring-your-own provider — subscription, API, or local compute. There is no hidden inference markup.
Can Auteur run entirely on our own servers? Yes — for qualified enterprise partners we offer fully private, on-premises builds with local AI models. Contact us.
