Apple Creator Studio bundles some of the company’s best-known creative tools into a single subscription
Apple on Tuesday unveiled Apple Creator Studio, a new subscription bundle of professional creative software priced at $12.99 a month or $129 a year, as the iPhone maker steps up its push into paid services for creators, students and professionals.
The company has used its services business, which includes its Apple Music and iCloud services, to drive growth in recent years, helping counter slower hardware growth and generate recurring revenue.
Apple Creator Studio bundles some of the company’s best-known creative tools into a single subscription, including Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro and Pixelmator Pro across Mac and iPad.
The package also adds premium content and new AI-powered features to Apple’s productivity apps Keynote, Pages and Numbers, while digital whiteboarding app Freeform will gain enhanced features later.
Final Cut Pro will offer new tools such as transcript-based search, visual search and beat detection to speed up video editing, while Logic Pro introduces AI-powered features like Synth Player and Chord ID to assist with music creation.
Apple Creator Studio also brings access to MainStage, which turns Macs into an instrument, voice processor, or guitar rig.
Apple Creator Studio also provides access to Motion, a motion graphics tool for creating 2D and 3D effects. It also includes Compressor, which works with Final Cut Pro and Motion to customize output settings for distribution.
There’s never been a more flexible and accessible way to get started with such a powerful collection of creative apps for professionals, emerging artists, entrepreneurs, students, and educators to do their best work and explore their creative interests from start to finish, Apple’s senior vice president of Internet Software and Services, Eddy Cue, said in the announcement.
The company’s Photoshop-alternative Pixelmator Pro will be available on iPad for the first time and will offer Apple Pencil support.
The subscription launches January 28 on the App Store, Apple said.
