DISCO.ac pricing tiers in 2026

DISCO.ac publishes three self-serve tiers plus custom Enterprise pricing. Artist includes unlimited files and two users. Plus and Pro are priced for one user and 1,000 files, and each extra user adds the plan price again. Prices below were checked on disco.ac/pricing in October 2026.

DISCO Artist: $10.80 per month annual ($12 monthly)

DISCO Artist is $10.80 per month with annual billing ($129.60 per year) or $12 billed monthly.

Its Insights are limited and it has no Reports or Email Creator.

DISCO Plus: $16.99 per month annual ($18.99 monthly)

DISCO Plus is $16.99 per user per month with annual billing ($203.88 per year) or $18.99 billed monthly, for 1,000 files. It adds inboxes for receiving files, the Email Creator, assigned URLs and CSV catalog editing, with advanced playlist stats, limited Insights and limited Reports.

DISCO.ac add-on pricing in 2026

DISCO sells two optional add-ons, billed on the same cycle as the plan. Neither is an analytics add-on: playlist stats come with every plan.

Discovery Suite: from $10 per month

The Discovery Suite starts at $10 per month for 250 files and rises with file count. It includes DISCO Catalogs, auto tagging, similarity search, lyric transcription and instant instrumentals. DISCO’s published auto tag categories cover genre, mood, tempo, instruments, vocals and BPM, but not musical key.

Watermarking: from $29 per month

Watermarking starts at $29 per month for one watermarked playlist. It adds inaudible, re-encoding resistant watermarks so a leak can be traced. DropCue does not offer audio watermarking, so if you need it, this is a reason to stay on DISCO.

DISCO pricing summary: what one user really pays

Billed monthly, one user pays $12 on Artist, $18.99 on Plus or $29.99 on Pro. Adding the Discovery Suite takes Pro to about $39.99 per month, and adding Watermarking as well takes it to $68.99 per month. A team multiplies the Plus or Pro price by the number of users.

Frequently asked questions about DISCO pricing

Is DISCO.ac worth the price?

DISCO.ac is worth it for composers and agencies whose supervisor relationships already use DISCO and recognize disco.ac links, and for anyone who needs watermarking. For composers who do not need those, DropCue ($8 to $15 per month billed annually) costs less and includes AI tools on Pro without an add-on.

Does DISCO.ac have a free trial?

Yes, DISCO offers a free trial from its pricing page. DropCue offers a 7-day free trial of Pro features with no credit card required.

Can I cancel DISCO.ac anytime?

Check DISCO’s terms for refunds on annual plans.

Most working catalogs migrate from DISCO to DropCue in 15 to 30 minutes for 200 to 1,000 tracks.

What is the most accessible professional DISCO alternative?

DropCue Artist at $8 per month annual ($96 per year) is a lower priced alternative to DISCO Artist ($10.80), with no track limit, password protection, expiring links, download controls, branded share URLs and basic analytics. DropCue Pro, from $15 per month, adds per-recipient analytics, AI tools, email campaigns, the portfolio page and an unlimited submission inbox.

Does DISCO.ac charge per-seat fees?

Yes, on Plus and Pro. Both are priced for one user, and each added user adds the plan price again (two users on Pro is $59.98 per month billed monthly). Artist includes two users. DropCue team seats work the same way: on Pro and Studio each seat is a full copy of the plan at the plan price.
