Runsheet pricing: free forever, paid plans from $12.
4 a month
About one a week through Runsheet, and Plan my month fills your next 3 slots.
15 a month
Three or four a week, Shorts and long videos together, and Plan my month fills your next 15 slots.
7 days
The latest stretch of the curve, enough to see that it gained 79 views this week.
Everything recorded
The whole curve. That is how you tell a video that died on day two from one that is still compounding, and it is what the format verdict is read from.
Snapshots are recorded 2 times a day on every plan and are never deleted. The plan decides how far back you can read, so upgrading later hands you your own past rather than starting a new one.
Free
One video a week, free forever, no credit card.
$0
No credit card, and it never expires.

How the free plan works
Sign up with Google, or with an email and a password. No credit card, no trial countdown, nothing expires. You connect your channel, queue up to 3 videos at a time, publish them with the thumbnail and the playlist attached, and read the last 7 days of every curve.
Snapshots keep being recorded whether or not you ever pay. The plan decides what you can read, never what gets kept, so there is no version of this where waiting costs you your own history.
What grows with the plan
Channels, watched channels and catalogue depth each draw on YouTube’s daily API quota, so they grow with the plan: checking a rival costs 3 quota units, and snapshotting your catalogue costs 3 more per 50 videos.
Cue credits and AI thumbnails are a paid call on every press, so they grow with the plan too, refilled on the 1st of every month.
What a credit buys
One balance runs every AI tool in Runsheet, on the website and through the MCP server, and a call that fails is refunded. Paid plans can add 1,000 more for $5 whenever a big month needs them.

What stays free whatever happens.
The cadence planner
Turns the hours you have in a bad week into a rhythm you can keep. Runs in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.

Read the guides →The methodology
Every finding, its formula, and the sample size behind it. Published so you can check it.
See the thresholds →And one thing that is free on every plan: your video goes from your browser straight to YouTube, so there is no storage bill to pass on to you and no copy of your unreleased work on our servers.
What you are paying for.
Runsheet holds the week as a running order, publishes in one pass, and keeps a per-video daily curve so a format verdict means something. The plans differ in how much of it you get: how many channels, how far back you can read, how many Cue credits and AI thumbnails a month, and the rest of the table above.
The full comparisons →Questions worth answering
How much does Runsheet cost?
Free is $0 and needs no credit card. Starter is $12 a month, or $108 a year. Creator is $29 a month, or $264 a year. Network is $69 a month, or $624 a year. No per-seat charge and no percentage of anything. Each plan has a monthly publishing allowance, listed in the table above.
Can I look around without signing up?
Yes. The live demo opens the real app with a practice channel of your own, already filled with 25 published videos, three scheduled, two weeks of view history, some saved ideas and two other channels to compare against. No sign-up and no credit card, and it is deleted after 12 hours.
What happens to my data if I downgrade?
Nothing is deleted. Snapshots keep being recorded whatever you are paying, for as much of the catalogue as the plan covers, and the plan decides how far back you can read and how many channels stay open: the channels you connected first stay open, and any beyond the new plan's count wait, with everything on them, until the plan covers them again. Upgrading later hands you your own past rather than starting a new one. The CSV export of your own snapshots comes with every paid plan and stays open after you cancel.
Can I cancel, and how do refunds work?
Cancel from Settings whenever you like, in two clicks, with no retention flow to sit through. You keep the plan, and every day you paid for, until the end of the period. After that the account goes read only: nothing is deleted, snapshots of your 50 most recent videos keep being recorded twice a day, the last 30 days stay readable, and the CSV export of your own snapshots stays open. A charge that should not have happened at all, like a duplicate or a renewal after you had cancelled, is worth mailing me about. The full refund policy, including your statutory rights, is on the refunds page linked in the footer.
