Artlist rebrands Contact-Sales tier, adds multi-model AI credit perks
What happened
Between the Jul 6, 2026 and Jul 13, 2026 captures of Artlist's pricing page, Pulse recorded 3 changes: 'AI Agent' and 'License covers commercial use' were removed as standalone feature bullets from the AI Starter, AI Creator, and AI Professional plan cards; The 4th, Contact-Sales tier's on-page label changed from the descriptive 'Businesses and teams' to the plan name 'Custom Business'; AI Creator and AI Professional plans now display a 'Plus Unlimited across N models' badge next to credits (13 and 16 models respectively) and add Seedream 5.0 Pro to the no-credit-cost model roster. Pulse files it as a packaging change (feature removed, plan renamed, limit increase) with a downward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 12, 2026) lists AI Starter at $11.99, AI Core at $23.99 and AI Creator at $41.67.
It lands 13 days after Artlist's previous change, "Artlist Starter plan bundles 70+ AI apps, agent, commercial license" (Jun 30, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Artlist expands AI model counts and overhauls generation controls" (Jun 23, 2026) and "Artlist cuts AI model access, shifts Seedance Pro to credits-only" (Jun 15, 2026). Artlist has been tracked since 2026-06-04.
