elevate.io (http://elevate.io) launches new structured pricing tiers

2 February 2026, London, Blackbird plc (AIM: BIRD), the developer of the browser-based collaborative video editing platform elevate.io, today announces the launch of a new tiered pricing structure for elevate.io, alongside the introduction of annual billing options, designed to align more closely with customer needs and usage requirements.

Following direct engagement with the Company's initial ideal customer profiles
("ICPs"), the Company has launched a pricing model structured as a free plan
and three paid tiers, being: Creator at $10 per month; Pro at $30 per month;
and Business at $100 per month. By validating the ICPs and their needs, the
pricing plans have been designed to address distinct use cases and value
expectations, enabling customers to quickly self-select the most appropriate
plan. This clear alignment between ICPs, product capability and pricing is
intended to simplify purchasing decisions and reduce friction at sign-up.

Ian McDonough, Blackbird Executive Chair, commented:
"elevate.io is designed to save teams who create video huge amounts of time through our multiplayer editing and instant review capabilities and therefore we are targeting teams and businesses as customers. As we move towards our scale-up phase, our pricing strategy needs to satisfy these customers, as well as individual content creators."
The tiered pricing structure creates a clear and intuitive upgrade path for customers to derive more value from the platform and, as their needs evolve, the model encourages movement to higher-value plans. The introduction of annual plans is in response to demand from business customers seeking greater budget certainty and supports longer-term customer relationships.
For
elevate.io (http://elevate.io)
, annual billing strengthens revenue visibility and cash flow, while positioning the platform to support larger, multi-user and enterprise-style deployments over time.
