Gumlet pricing
What Gumlet costs, what each plan is metered on, and what to expect as your traffic grows.
What Gumlet costs
Plan-based, metered on storage minutes + monthly streaming GB with overages. Free (1 seat, 60 storage min, 100 GB/mo). Creator $6/mo, Growth $19/mo, Business $99/mo, all billed annually; monthly billing is higher ($9/$29/$149). Streaming overage runs $0.50/$0.15/$0.10/$0.06 per GB by tier. DRM is a $99/mo add-on. Enterprise is custom.
What works
- Two products on one bill. You get managed video hosting (adaptive streaming, live, AI subtitles and chapters) and a separate image-optimization CDN that auto-serves AVIF and WebP to speed up your pages. For a team that would otherwise pay two vendors, that is a real saving.
- Priced well under Vimeo and Wistia for what it includes: a genuine free-forever tier, and paid plans from $6 monthly on annual billing. Reviewers consistently praise fast playback and value, and the aggregate scores back them up, at 4.7 across 357 G2 reviews and 4.9 across 202 on Capterra as of late 2026.
- Content protection built for paid courses: one-click Widevine and FairPlay DRM (a $99-a-month extra), dynamic watermarks, plus domain and geo restrictions and signed URLs on the standard plans. It is why people leave YouTube or an over-priced Vimeo plan.
What to watch
- Reliability is the recurring worry. A community thread documented every embed on an account suddenly returning a dashboard-only error, and AppSumo buyers reported an outage with no fix ETA and support slow to respond. Pilot it and keep a second host you can fail over to.
- Overages, not hard caps. Bandwidth is metered and billed past your plan allowance, and users flag the lack of a hard spend limit as a risk on public or viral videos. Set usage alerts and ask support about caps before you go live.
- It hosts and protects video; it does not make the video sell. There are in-player CTAs, forms and Meta/Google pixels, but no per-second retention curve split by buyers and non-buyers and nothing that ties a play to a cart-verified sale. Selling on cold paid traffic needs a conversion player on top.
