The short version

  • Only Twinmotion has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Twinmotion epic Games' own pricing announcement (unrealengine.com/twinmotion.com) sets an individual Twinmotion seat at $445 per year, and the bundled Unreal Subscription covering Twinmotion, Unreal Engine and RealityCapture together at $1,850 per seat per year, once a company's annual gross revenue exceeds $1,000,000 USD; below that threshold the same software is free, including for commercial use, which makes list price highly dependent on company size rather than usage.; Vyond starter plan at $699 per year caps monthly video downloads at 100 and max video duration at 25 minutes
