$129/mo
Elite — every feature
One subscription replaces the stack
Most video agencies stitch together review (Frame.io ~$75) + PM (Monday ~$60) + billing (~$30) + a client portal tool. That’s $165+/mo across four subscriptions, four logins, and four places to update when something changes.
Timeliner Elite is $129/mo flat for a 5-seat team with all of it built in: review, PM, internal-then-client gating, white-label client portal, billing, team analytics. Or start on Pro at $79/mo (3 seats — $59 base + 2 included) if you’re a solo editor or 2-person team.
