Checked 10 November 2026 against each product’s own site; every cell links its source where one exists, and products change, so check theirs before you decide. Prices are in US dollars per hour, and each product counts its hours differently: Studiotake counts an hour of finished episode, however many cameras recorded it; Eddie AI counts hours of footage, each camera file on its own length; Descript counts media hours, the media you upload or record; OpusClip counts minutes of video processed. Studiotake: $19 for 5 episode-hours (the same number in euros; €22.99 including VAT in the EU). Eddie AI: $10 for 1,000 credits, which its pricing page says is about an hour of footage imported and edited, and $45 for 5,000, about two 3-hour projects, so 6 hours. Its podcast recipe pages give 313 credits to import 1 hour 15 minutes of footage, then 100 to 500 credits for the full episode and 100 to 490 for the clips, 513 to 1,303 in all, more than its 500 free credits. Descript: $24 a month billed monthly for 10 media hours and 400 AI credits a month on its Hobbyist plan. OpusClip: its pricing page says 1 credit is 1 minute of video processing, so Starter, $15 a month for 150 credits, is $6 an hour. Castmagic: its Hobby plan, $29 billed monthly, gives 30 transcribed hours as a library total and does not say they renew each month, so we give no hourly price. A three-camera episode here is one hour finished, recorded on three cameras with 10 to 20% cut, so about 3.5 hours of footage in all (3.3 to 3.75). Eddie AI: importing costs 250 credits an hour of each file, billed in 15-minute blocks, so three files of 1.1 to 1.25 hours are about 938 credits; its recipe pages put the full-episode run at 100 to 500 credits and the clips run at 100 to 490; 1,138 to 1,928 credits is about $10 at the $45 pack's rate to $19 at the $10 pack's. Descript: it counts the media you upload, so three camera files are 3.5 media hours, $8.40 at $2.40 (its help centre: media minutes are the time used when uploading or recording media); recorded in Descript's own Rooms, a session counts once, however many people take part. OpusClip: it takes one video and uses 1 credit a minute, so a finished hour up to one 1.25-hour camera file is $6.00 to $7.50. Studiotake counts the finished hour, however many cameras recorded it and however much was cut. Studiotake keeps your recordings on your Mac. Three things reach our server, each only when you use it: a video scheduled to post waits there until it is posted, parts of the transcript pass through it to the AI provider, and support requests you send reach us (privacy policy).
