Lumen5
Create Video Content from Articles
Bottom Line
Lumen5 is best for content teams that already publish written content and want a fast path to branded marketing video. It is less attractive for buyers who need deeper editing, original generation, or broader self-serve team controls than the single-user tiers offer.

Pricing guidance
Pricing verdict
Lumen5 is mostly a workflow-ceiling buy: pay for the tier that clears your export, storage, and collaboration bottleneck, not the longest feature list.
There is a free entry point, and paid pricing currently starts at Starts at $29USD/month.
Plan chooser
- •Basic: use it when for creating simple videos and 3,500 ai media credits is the real bottleneck.
- •Starter: use it when for content creators and 1080p video resolution is the real bottleneck.
- •Pro: use it when for small businesses and 500m stock photos & videos is the real bottleneck.
Before you pay
- There is a low-risk free/trial-style entry, so validate workflow before paying annually.
- Enterprise is usually about admin, security, or rollout control, not just a slightly bigger creator tier.
