What Is a Video Editing Subscription?
Last updated 27 October 2026.
A video editing subscription is a contract that buys a set amount of editing over a fixed term, at a price you agree up front. You send footage whenever you need a video, and the provider edits it to a set turnaround.
Subscriptions suit teams that make video every week or month. A team that makes two videos a year usually gets better value from a one-off project.
How does a video editing subscription compare with an agency?
An agency quotes each project. That works well for a single high-end film, but it adds a new approval cycle every time. With a subscription you agree the volume once, so a training module or sales video can start the day the footage is ready.
Compare what is included as well as the price. Check the turnaround, the number of feedback rounds, whether brand templates are set up for you and who your day-to-day contact is.
How Shootsta handles it
Every Shootsta plan includes the Shootsta platform and professional editing with a 48-hour turnaround. Brand template setup, five rounds of feedback on each project and dedicated account support come with it. Plans are annual subscriptions, and the per-video cost is typically 50-60% lower than a traditional agency.
