Who it’s best for

• YouTubers.
• Wedding filmmakers.
• Small agencies.

Who should skip it

What it costs

Prices checked October 31, 2026, from Artlist’s own pricing page unless noted. Prices change often, so check the official page before you buy.

• Plans were listed from about $19.99 to $99.99 a month billed yearly (checked October 30, 2026).
• Its help center says refunds within 14 days are possible only if nothing was downloaded.

What we like

• Licenses cover content made while subscribed.
• Big music catalog.
• Footage too.
• Trustpilot 3.2.

What to watch for

• Pricey yearly plans.
• Refund only if unused.
• Billing complaints.
• Search can be slow.
