Q: Hello, welcome back to AppSumo.
I didn't purchase your deal last time because I found it to be the most confusing deal I have ever seen here on AS. I'm not saying that I couldn't understand what your app does, but rather what I would get as part of the deal. With all due respect, you didn't disappoint again with the confusion :). Last time, I skipped your deal because of that. This time, I have decided to give you the benefit of the doubt and I will ask you very specific questions. My first question is: "Why do you map the highest tier to your Pro plan?" In my humble opinion, the highest tier looks much more like a Team/Enterprise hybrid. Is it because of future updates? Is it safer for you to offer only Pro plan future updates? I am pretty sure that there won't be many updates on the Pro plan. So, are we buying the current features with very little, if any, future updates? Am I correct?
I would like to know if the following features are included in the highest tier. Please don’t provide me with any links to your pricing plans to compare them. I have done the homework, and because I haven't found my answers, I am asking you here. You can just give me simple yes/no answers (when it applies), but any additional comments are welcome.
Here are the features I would like to know if I would get by purchasing the highest tier:
Video Flows (If yes, how many?)
AI editor (If yes, how many videos per month?)
Advanced Sales pages
Integration with Sales Platforms
Team Reports
Tags in Folders
Create Videos from Images
Automated Personalized Videos
Video Hubs
Import Links and Documents in Carousel
GIF and Thumbnail Personalization
Video Branching
Advanced Interactive Elements
Contacts
Team reports
Share Video for Review
Tags
Third-party Integrations (if yes, which ones?)
I would also like to ask you how personalization works. Is it similar to Bhuman, where I can upload a video and the AI creates variables in the video like first name, company, etc.? Or do I create a video and the only personalization is in the text part but not in my speech at all?
My last question is: Can I upload a list of prospects for cold outreach, create the links, and download it for use in other software like Instantly?

Hope you will be satisfied with my answers below and take the deal this time.
Tier 1 of AppSumo is mapped to our Pro plan and in the rest of the tiers, you'll unlock additional features, and expand limits as you go up. Some limits are more than what we offer in our Enterprise plan. We have brought those exclusively for the AppSumo community. We constantly improve our product with more functionalities and from the first time we launched our app on AppSumo we have added many features to the pro plan which all the tiers of AppSumo customers can use.
You can find the detailed comparison of our features in the Pro plan on our pricing page below:
https://www.hippovideo.io/pricing.html
Whatever feature mentioned here in the Pro plan will already apply to all tiers and any feature that is being unlocked is explicitly mentioned in this deal page.
There is a mistake on our side where we didn't update the count of Video Flows properly, we will get this corrected with the AppSumo team. All tiers will have the default video flow templates we provide and in tier 5 you can create your own video flows.
With respect to AI Editor, 10 videos can be edited monthly on all tiers. There is no additional limit unlocking for this feature in any tier that's the reason it's not mentioned in this page.
With respect to Sales pages, the advanced version is available from Tier 1 itself and there is no limit of number of pages you can create. We have change this pricing in our Pro plan for our new customers. Existing customers and all AppSumo customers have been grandfathered for the ability of unlimited sales pages and the advanced functionality.
Integrations of PRO plan applies to all AppSumo tiers. Salesloft integration alone is unlocked on Tier 5.
Team Reports is available from Tier 3 as mentioned on this page
Tags, Create Video from Images, Video Hubs, Links & Documents, and Share for Review are available in all tiers. These features are also following the same grandfathered approach where we have done this change only for the new customers. We will mention these features in this page.
Personalization features we mentioned on this page where Thumbnail unlocks in tier 3, personalization editor for text personalization from tier 4 and limits mentioned there.
Advanced Interactive Elements feature is not available in any tier.
The personalization available in tier 4 is text only personalization where you can personalize your video with text messages inside.
In tier 5, you can have an AI avatar feature where you can generate videos for any script by just uploading a photo.
You can upload contacts, generate videos and download the CSV for sending it via third party softwares.
Thanks for pointing out the missing features, we will update this page.
