We audited every plan, the credit math and the trial billing complaints across 6 platforms. *Pricing audit for ops teams · October 2026* ## Skywork AI Pricing (2026): Credits, Plans and the Billing Traps The plan prices are low. The risk sits in the trial, the credit meter and the renewal. Here is the math, with sources. ## Verdict **Score: 6.5/10** Skywork AI pricing starts at $14.99 for the first month, then $16.99 a month for 7,000 credits, or $149.99 a year ($12.50 a month). That works out to about $0.17 per task at the advertised 100 tasks. The price is fair. The billing is the problem: Trustpilot sits at 1.3/5 across 78 reviews, mostly about annual charges after a trial. **Quick scores:** - Price per output: 8/10 - Pricing transparency: 4/10 - Free tier value: 7/10 - Cancellation and refunds: 3/10 - Output breadth: 8/10 **Pros:** - About $0.17 per task on the $16.99 plan at the advertised 100 tasks a month - Annual plan drops the effective rate to $12.50 a month, 26% under monthly - 800 daily free credits in the current trial let you test real work before paying **Cons:** - Trustpilot reports annual charges of $99 to $509.90 after a $1 or 7-day trial - 7,000 credits expire after one month, and reviewers say tasks burn credits unpredictably - Ultra has no public price on the page, so you cannot budget it before logging in *Call to action: Start with the free credits* (Free credits, no card needed for the free tier.

Free tier plus line-by-line audit of Monthly ($16.99), Quarterly ($39.99), Annual ($149.99) and the Ultra page - **Version tested:** Skywork web app and Slides pricing page, re-checked October 17, 2026 - **Prompts run:** 0 - **Test period:** 2026-07-12 → 2026-10-17 **Test categories:** Plan price and credit math, Trial and renewal terms, Multi-platform rating aggregation, Billing and refund complaint patterns, Competitor price check (Gamma) This is a pricing audit, not a paid 30-day trial, and we say so up front. We first audited Skywork's public pricing between July 12 and July 26, 2026. We re-checked every number on October 17, 2026, so the window covers 97 days of tracking. We read the Slides pricing page, the Ultra page and the signed-out app home. We also read the Trustpilot profile (78 reviews), the Google Play listing (1,381 ratings) and the App Store listing (63 ratings). We checked G2 and Product Hunt: both list Skywork with zero reviews. We did not run paid prompts, so we publish no latency or output-quality benchmarks. Every figure below comes from a first-party page or a named review platform, and we flag anything that differs between sources. ## Should you pay for Skywork? **YES if you...** - Marketing ops or content ops leads who need slides, docs and sheets from one brief and can budget about 7,000 credits a month - Solo operators with bursty work: a few big decks a month, nothing daily - Anyone who will set a calendar reminder before the trial ends and screenshot the plan screen **NO if you...** - Teams that need predictable per-seat pricing: Skywork meters credits, not seats, and shows no public team plan - Anyone who cannot spot a renewal in a bank statement: reviewers report annual charges after trials - Heavy daily users who need guaranteed volume: Ultra is the answer, but its price is hidden behind login ## Skywork AI pricing, plan by plan ### Free trial — $0/ trial 800 daily credits shown in the signed-out trial modal - Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini named as available models - Deep research, thinking and editing included - Scheduled tasks via chat apps - Daily credits do not accumulate ### Monthly — $16.99/ month ($14.99 first month) 7,000 credits, valid for 1 month - About 100 tasks a month, per Skywork's own estimate - Unlimited professional database and smart image analysis - 30 AI-designed covers a month - 10 scheduled tasks ### Quarterly — $39.99/ 3 months Works out to $13.33 a month - Same 7,000 credits a month - Saves $11 over three monthly payments at $16.99 ### Annual — $149.99/ year ($12.50 a month) *(Lowest rate)* 26% off versus monthly, per the page badge - Same 7,000 credits a month - Saves $53.89 against 12 months at $16.99 - Largest single charge on a plan with a public price ### Ultra — Not public Heavy-use membership, price shown after login - Claims $1,250 a month in premium model power - 10 parallel tasks and up to 8 devices - Annual Ultra includes a hardware kit valued at $407 **ROI breakdown:** At the advertised 100 tasks a month, the $16.99 plan costs about $0.17 per task and the $14.99 first month about $0.15. That is 70 credits per task on average. Gamma Pro costs $18 a seat, and Plus costs $9, both with unlimited AI creations on the page we checked. **Hidden costs & gotchas:** - The 7,000 credits expire after one month, so unused credits are lost - 100 tasks is an estimate, and reviewers report single tasks that consumed thousands of credits - Trial renewals are the top complaint: reported charges include $99, $199, $399 and $509.90 - Web subscriptions cannot be cancelled from the mobile app, according to a Trustpilot reviewer *[Interactive widget — see the live page for the full experience]* ## What we measured - **Standard monthly plan:** $16.99 per month *(Skywork Slides pricing page, Oct 17, 2026; $14.99 for the first month)* - **Credits per paid month:** 7,000 credits, valid 1 month *(Same allowance on monthly, quarterly and annual billing)* - **Cost per task at 100 tasks:** $0.17 per task *($16.99 divided by Skywork's own 100-task estimate)* - **Annual effective rate:** $12.50 per month *($149.99 per year, 26% under monthly)* - **Free trial credits:** 800 per day *(Signed-out trial modal, Oct 17, 2026; July audit showed 500 a day)* - **Trustpilot score:** 1.3 /5 (78 reviews) *(19 of the 20 most recent reviews are one star)* - **Trial-to-annual charge reports:** 7 of 20 recent Trustpilot reviews *(Each describes an annual charge after a $1 or 7-day trial)* - **Google Play rating:** 3.7 /5 (1,381 ratings) *(Read from the Play listing, Oct 17, 2026)* > Open the Slides pricing page signed out and read every plan.

The credit list says 7,000 credits a month, valid for 1 month. > Open the signed-out app home and check what the free trial includes. A Limited-Time Trial modal lists 800 daily free credits, access to Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini, deep research, and scheduled tasks. Login is required to claim it. The modal states no renewal terms. > Open the Ultra page and look for a price. The page lists Gemini 3 Pro, Claude Opus 4.6 and GPT 5.4, plus a $1,250 a month model-power claim and a hardware kit. It shows an Upgrade to Ultra button and no dollar price for the membership itself. ## Pros and cons ### Pros - **Low cost per task on the advertised allowance** — At $16.99 for about 100 tasks, a finished deck or doc costs roughly $0.17 if you stay inside the estimate. - **Annual billing cuts the rate by about a quarter** — $149.99 a year equals $12.50 a month, against $16.99 monthly. You save $53.89 if you use it all year. - **The free trial is generous on paper** — 800 daily credits is enough to run a real deck or research brief before you enter a card. - **One credit pool covers many output types** — Slides, docs, sheets, images, video and scheduled tasks all draw from the same monthly allowance. ### Cons - **Annual charges after a trial are the top complaint** — At least 7 of the 20 most recent Trustpilot reviews describe a surprise annual charge. Amounts range from $99 to $509.90. - **Credits expire monthly and burn unpredictably** — Reviewers report that short tasks consumed far more credits than expected, with no rollover for the leftovers. - **Ultra has no public price on the page** — You cannot compare Ultra with Gamma Ultra at $90 a seat, or with any plan, until you log in. - **Refund and support replies are described as unresponsive** — Several reviewers report refund requests denied with zero credits used, and Reddit threads describe the same pattern. ## Final verdict **Score: 6.5/10** The sticker price is not the issue. At $16.99 a month for 7,000 credits, or $12.50 a month on the annual plan, Skywork is cheap for the range of output it covers. Our score is 6.5 out of 10 because the billing record drags it down. Trustpilot shows 1.3 out of 5 across 78 reviews, and most complaints describe an annual charge after a short trial. Treat the trial like a loaded tool. Use the free credits first. Pay monthly, not annual, for your first cycle. Screenshot the plan screen, set a reminder two days before renewal, and check your bank statement. If you need steady daily volume, ask for the Ultra price in writing before you commit. If you need predictable seats for a team, compare Gamma first. Skywork fits solo operators with bursty work and the discipline to manage a subscription. It does not fit anyone who wants to forget about billing. **Dimensional scoring:** - **Price per output:** 8/10 — About $0.17 per task at the advertised allowance - **Pricing transparency:** 4/10 — Ultra price hidden, renewal terms hard to find - **Free tier value:** 7/10 — 800 daily credits, but a login is required - **Cancellation and refunds:** 3/10 — 1.3 on Trustpilot, mostly billing - **Output breadth:** 8/10 — Slides, docs, sheets, images, video *Call to action: Start with Skywork free credits* ## Questions ops leads ask about Skywork pricing ### How much does Skywork AI cost per month?
