A competitor's pricing quoted from memory is worth less than nothing to you, and it goes stale in a fortnight. If a number is not published, we do not publish it.
Pricing explainer
What Arcads costs, and why the honest answer is to ask them.
Arcads makes AI actor videos for paid ads, and it is good at that. The thing a buyer wants before committing is a number. As of the date on this page we could not find a published price list on their site, so here is the useful version instead: what drives the bill in this category, what to ask for, and what to weigh it against.
Ground rules
What this page will and will not tell you.
arcads.ai is the only authority on what Arcads costs. If a price list is up there now, use it and treat this page as out of date. The date this page was last edited is at the bottom of it.
Zoomies is an organic tool in the same broad category. Read the section on where per-asset pricing beats ours with that in mind, because it is the part we had the least incentive to write.
The structure
What actually drives the bill for AI UGC ads.
Whatever the sticker says, the shape of the cost in this category is consistent, and it is the shape that decides whether you can afford it.
Actor videos are generated one at a time and priced by the render or by a credit that stands in for one. Your monthly bill is a function of how much you make, not of how long you have been a customer.
Paid creative learns by variation. Ten scripts against four actors against three hooks is a hundred and twenty renders before you have learned one thing, and that is a normal first month, not an aggressive one.
A delivery that lands wrong was still generated. Budget for the ones you throw away, because in this category they are most of them.
Someone has to write the thing. Whether that is you at midnight or a copywriter at a day rate, it belongs in the comparison even though no tool bills you for it.
The other shape
Flat pricing, and when it is the wrong one.
Zoomies charges a flat monthly price, published, sized by finished posts: Free at zero for three posts once, Starter at $29, Growth at $49, Studio at $149. You can work out the cost of a month of posting before you sign up, which is the only real advantage of this shape.
Per-asset pricing is not a worse idea. It is the correct idea for paid media, where the creative is a small line next to the ad spend and the whole method depends on making far more variants than you keep. Charging a flat fee for that would either cap you at the wrong moment or overcharge everyone who does not test hard.
Flat pricing is the correct idea for a habit. If the goal is that something goes out every week for the next year, a meter you have to watch is the thing that eventually makes you stop, and stopping is the actual failure mode this category has.
So the question is not which pricing is fairer. It is whether you are buying attention or earning it, and those two answers point at different tools.
Verdict
How to get a real number.
Ask Arcads for a quote against a specific month: the number of scripts, actors, and variants you actually intend to run, not a hypothetical. Per-asset vendors quote very differently depending on volume, and a generic price is not the price you will pay.
Then price the same month here, which takes no conversation because the plans are on the site. Compare the two against the outcome you want rather than against each other.
If the honest answer is that you are running paid media with a working funnel, buy the ad tool. Zoomies is the wrong shape for that and no discount fixes it.
FAQ
Questions worth asking
How much does Arcads cost?
We do not know, and we are not going to guess. As of the date on this page we could not find a published price list on arcads.ai. Ask them for a quote against the number of videos you intend to make in a month, since per-asset pricing varies a lot with volume.
Can Zoomies make ad creative instead?
Partly. There is a sponsored tone mode that presents the product directly, and every export is watermark-free, so an approved post can be run as paid creative. There are no AI actors and no script-to-performance generation, so it is not a like-for-like replacement.
How does Zoomies pricing work?
Payments are off during the private beta, and every workspace uses the Free allowance of three finished posts once. Starter, Growth, and Studio prices stay public as planned post-beta tiers so people can tell us which pace fits. No card or paid subscription is created during the beta.
Does Zoomies publish directly to TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube?
Zoomies schedules and publishes through official platform APIs. Your workspace only shows channels whose official connection is approved and enabled, and nothing publishes without a human approving the post first.
