A year of updates, not a leash
That $47.34 is a one-time purchase. You get everything in the Tool Box today, and every update, new tool, and new release we ship over the next year.
After year one, renewing is entirely your choice. The tools you already own keep working, forever, exactly as they did with your last update, whether you re-up or not. You only renew at $47.34/year when you decide the newer versions are worth it: new tools, new features, and new DaVinci Resolve support.
Pick updates back up whenever you like. No penalties, no re-buying, no lapse fees. Resume where you left off.
Your price is yours
The price may go up for new members down the road. It will not go up for you. The day you join, your rate locks in and stays locked, even if you step away for a year or two and come back.
Owning beats renting
Most tools like these are a subscription. Miss a payment and they stop, mid-project, mid-timeline, and everything you built with them goes dark until you pay again.
The Tool Box works the other way around. You buy in once. Updates are optional. And whatever you've paid for keeps running, on your machine, for as long as you want it. Three years of grading might cost you $47.34 or $142.02, depending on how many years of updates you choose. Whatever you've paid for, you keep.
Color is never just forward. Some months you're deep in a project, some months you're not cutting at all. Sometimes you open a piece from years ago and want to regrade it, a different mood, a different intention. Reaching for the exact tool you made those looks with, years later, and finding it still there, still working: that's what owning your tools means.
The same way you've invested in your camera, your lenses, your monitor and your rig, we want the Tool Box to be another tool in your kit. One that helps you make images worth looking at.
