Storyblocks provides subscription access to a stock media library and tools for video production. Its collection includes over 10 million human-made assets, such as footage, templates, music, sound effects, photos, vectors, and illustrations. The AI Toolkit offers video editing, video and image generation, and voiceover on some plans; these tools use monthly credits. An Adobe Creative Cloud plugin lets users search, preview, and download library assets in Premiere Pro and After Effects. Maker is an online video editor linked to the library, and Maker for Teams adds brand kits, collaboration tools, and custom templates. Templates are available for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, and Apple Motion. A free account offers watermarked previews, folders, and Maker video creation, but not a free trial membership. Essentials is 21.00 USD per month billed annually; Unlimited All Access is 30.00 USD per month billed annually; Small Business is 40.00 USD per month billed annually. The Small Business license is for one employee at an organization with fewer than 50 employees, excluding agencies, production companies, and broadcast companies.
