Production stack planner · pricing verified July 2026
Build the AI pipeline that fits your niche — and your budget.
Nine tools across four production stages, scored against your channel format, output volume and monthly spend. The builder returns one recommended stack, what it costs, how many hours it gives back, and where the next dollar earns the most.
Configure your channel
Niche
Sets how each stage is weighted. A gaming channel barely needs generated B-roll; a finance channel lives or dies on research quality.
Budget & volume
Assumes ~10-minute long-form videos. For Shorts, count each clip as one.
Used to convert saved hours into a dollar return. Set it to what an hour of your time is worth.
Your recommended stack
Prices are the vendor's published rates as of July 2026 and exclude taxes and API overage. Tiers marked unconfirmed did not show a clean monthly sticker price on the official page — verify before you buy.
Where the next dollar goes
Every upgrade available from your current stack, ranked by hours returned per dollar added. Anything above the line pays for itself at your hourly rate.
