Topaz Labs discontinued perpetual licenses for Topaz Video AI. New purchases now require an annual subscription — Personal at $299/year or Pro at $699/year.
Total Cost Over Time
A subscription compounds every year. A one-time license doesn't. Here's the real cost side by side:
| Time Period | Topaz Personal | Topaz Pro | AI Video Enhancer Studio |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | $299 | $699 | $129 |
| 2 years | $598 | $1,398 | $129 |
| 3 years | $897 | $2,097 | $129 |
Two years of Topaz Personal ($598) already costs 4.6x more than AI Video Enhancer Studio's one-time $129 price — and the license never expires or renews.
An Honest Comparison
Topaz Video AI isn't standing still: it now supports AMD GPUs (not just NVIDIA), and its specialized generative models — Starlight, Iris, Dione, Astra — go beyond what AI Video Enhancer Studio attempts to do. If your workflow depends on those models or you're on a non-NVIDIA GPU, Topaz remains the more capable tool.
AI Video Enhancer Studio is the affordable, one-time-purchase option for NVIDIA RTX owners whose workflow is mainly upscaling and frame interpolation. For the full pricing breakdown, read our Topaz Video AI price analysis for 2026.
