Same credit model — without the plan walls. More minutes per pound, the editor on every plan, and a free tier that actually exports clean. Prices checked June 2026.
| OpusClip | ClipDocker | |
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | 60 credits every month — all clips watermarked, files expire in 3 days, no editor, no virality score | 60 credits once — top-ranked clip watermark-free, full editor, all caption styles, AI AutoFrame |
| Entry paid plan | Starter $15/mo — 150 credits, watermark-free, no clip editor | Pro £19.99/mo — 500 credits, watermark-free, full editor, TikTok scheduling |
| Popular plan | Pro $29/mo — 300 credits, editor, scheduler, 2 seats, 100 GB | Studio £39.99/mo — 1,000 credits, 30 clips per job |
| Top plan | Business — custom pricing, API access | Max £79.99/mo — 2,000 credits, 30 GB uploads |
| ≈ Price per source minute | $29 ÷ 300 ≈ $0.10 | £19.99 ÷ 500 ≈ £0.04 |
Both tools use the same honest credit model — 1 credit = 1 minute of source video, clips themselves are free. The differences are in what each plan unlocks.

OpusClip is the biggest name in the category — and you pay for that name twice: once in price per minute, and again in plan walls. The thing most people actually need after the AI does its pass — fixing a trim, restyling a caption — costs $29/month there and £0 here.
ClipDocker is the creator's platform: every plan ships the full editor, virality scoring, AI AutoFrame, five named caption styles, captions in 99 languages, and direct TikTok publishing. You upgrade for more minutes — never for permission to use the product.
Per minute, substantially: ClipDocker Pro works out around £0.04 per source minute (500 credits for £19.99) vs roughly $0.10 on OpusClip Pro (300 credits for $29) — and the editor is included at every tier rather than gated.
Only on the Pro plan ($29/mo) — the $15 Starter can download clips but not edit them. ClipDocker includes the full in-browser editor on every plan, including Free.
On ClipDocker: 60 minutes, the full editor, every caption style, AI AutoFrame, and your top-ranked clip exports completely watermark-free. On OpusClip's free plan every export is watermarked, files expire after 3 days, and the editor and virality score are unavailable.
