Blackbird Introduces Tiered Pricing and Annual Subscriptions for elevate.io

LSE:BIRD
Market News
02 February 2026 8:36AM

Blackbird plc (LSE:BIRD) has rolled out a new pricing framework and annual subscription options for elevate.io, its browser-based collaborative video editing platform, as part of its push into a scale-up phase. The revised model follows engagement with early ideal customer profiles and introduces a free tier alongside three paid plans: Creator at $10 per month, Pro at $30 per month and Business at $100 per month.

The tiered structure is designed to align more clearly with different user needs, making it easier for customers to self-select the right plan while reducing friction at the point of sign-up. A clear progression between tiers also provides a defined upgrade path as usage expands. In parallel, the introduction of annual billing options reflects demand from business users seeking greater budget certainty and is intended to strengthen long-term customer relationships, improve revenue visibility and support larger, multi-user and enterprise-style deployments.

From a market standpoint, Blackbird’s outlook continues to be weighed down by weak financial metrics, including ongoing losses, cash burn and declining revenues, alongside bearish technical indicators. These pressures are partly offset by a more optimistic tone from recent earnings updates, pointing to potential EBITDA positivity and tighter cash management, as well as supportive corporate developments. Valuation remains difficult to gauge given negative earnings and the absence of a dividend.

My only concern is the cash is challengingly low and a 2p share price is not helping a small fund raise Other than that we are good Pokerchips I think you might mean Business tier Enterprise is further down the road and going by Canva and Figma is where the very big money is...

yes.. the tech investors are not interested in 2025 ..they probably have now started to see the Pro and Enterprise Tiers and thought...right..now we are starting to say something But...with Pro and Enterprise being the working horses to bring in the steady money...more is needed there .. so ..if indeed they can show the line up of partners, and third party interest etc ..plus a indication of how the product can change and survive the oncoming years then ..they might get a bite on some money.....

It’s also complex because the product isn’t fixed it is evolving rapidly and that will have a substantial affect on subscription growth So to deal with that investors will need to understand the products past, present and future roadmap development Then you need to understand what users need and the trigger points to get them to subscribe Then there is our unique offer of removing pain and friction and how quickly that is picked up by the creator market And then there is AI and it’s impac...

Hornblower I hear what you say but I doubt that growth data will be meaningful in the short term I think we would need at least 12 months of data to satisfy an external tech fund. I think so much more data is required to get a fuller picture and these investors will still need vision and understanding of elevate and its opportunity. As private investors I feel our first aim is to get to 30-40k subscribers so we can stay in business I would have thought....

Anne de Kerckhove discussed some of the metrics that are important, and loved her acronyms. Just from memory, I think it was these types of metrics / acronyms: Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) Customer Retention Rates (CRR) Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) Some of which can only be estimated to begin with, but once those metrics are sorted, you simply ramp up the sign-ups (we know that's easy), and hey presto. The problem for a lot of SaaS companies is that thes...

sb, No, not quite right...but almost. NickB As I have posted a couple of times recently, it is not the specific numbers of subs, it is the exponential growth that matters. That is why you need three consecutive data points to get two sets of increases. Simple, really....

It’s valued below build cost! The barrier to entry is very high for any competitors The addressable market is huge And yet zero interest The we want proof people shouldn’t be investing outside of dividend stocks The message from the London market to other technology companies is we won’t support you It’s a bad look Hopefully AI will replace many in the City who can only wait for no risk investment due to lack of vision, understanding and a little risk tolerance UK can’t compete w...

SSB How kind of you. It just seems so obvious. All that software development, all the top level involvement in the world's leading sporting events. Elevate.io developing from ground zero to the amazing, top flight, easy to operate video editor that we have now, breaking into a massive marketplace. All of that for £10.8 million isn't real....

We all know that the current market cap. of £10.8 million for the whole company does not reflect the real world value of the company and it's technology. Once we can show real commercial progress, then it must surely change substantially, as new investors sign up....

With the share price where it is now, no tech savvy PI angel is going to give it any consideration at anything other than a discount of the magnitude we recently saw, so essentially tuppence or likely less.
