## Plans

| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Billing | Notes | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| PowerDirector 365 | not priced monthly | — | flat | Annual subscription: $59.99/year discounted from a crossed-out $79.99, expressed on the page as '$5.00 /month' — that is the annual total divided by twelve, NOT a month-to-month price, which is why monthlyUsd is null. The discount sits under a 'Limited Time Offer \| 25% OFF! Ends September 13th' banner, so $79.99/yr is the standing list price a buyer should expect after that date. Includes everything in PowerDirector 2026 plus premium AI features and monthly feature updates. | cyberlink.com |
| Director Suite 365 | not priced monthly | — | flat | Annual subscription bundle: $99.99/year discounted from a crossed-out $139.99, shown as an '$8.33 /month' annual-billed equivalent rather than a month-to-month rate, so monthlyUsd is null. Bundles PowerDirector 365 with PhotoDirector 365 and AudioDirector 365. The same limited-time 25%-off banner applies, so $139.99/yr is the post-promotion list price. | cyberlink.com |
| PowerDirector 2026 (perpetual) | not priced monthly | — | flat | One-time purchase of $139.99 for a perpetual licence to the 2026 version, with no renewal — a one-time price, so monthlyUsd is null. Does not include the 365 premium AI features or the monthly feature updates and asset drops that come with the subscription. At over twice the promotional first-year subscription cost, that trade is the thing to weigh. | cyberlink.com |

Provenance: cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector-video-editing-software/pricing_en_US.html re-fetched on 2026-09-10. The draft's key correction was specifically challenged and confirmed: the page's '$5.00 /month' and '$8.33 /month' figures are annual-billed equivalents (the yearly total divided by twelve), there is no true month-to-month option on any plan, and so monthlyUsd is null on every plan here. Also confirmed: the 'Limited Time Offer | 25% OFF! Ends September 13th' banner, the crossed-out $79.99 against $59.99 for PowerDirector 365, the crossed-out $139.99 against $99.99 for Director Suite 365, and $139.99 one-time for the perpetual PowerDirector 2026. No figure required correction.
