Why It Converts

Free tier removes all risk — users already love the product before they see the paywall. ByteDance's brand trust and TikTok integration mean CapCut is the default video editor for a generation. 7-day free Pro trial seals the deal for hesitant upgraders.

Honest Limitations

• Most users stay on free tier — conversion to paid is lower than pure-paid tools
• 30-day cookie is short for a freemium conversion funnel
• Pro price doubled in May 2025 ($9.99 → $19.99) — may affect conversion rates
