Q: Help needed to decide what tier to buy
I'm mainly looking to buy a subscription for my talking head videos. It seems to be really promising. However, I would like to know the difference between the Ideate and the Creator plan in the future.
Considering that I don't intend to create a faceless YouTube channel, is the Ideate plan enough for me, considering the future updates you will be rolling out?
For example, you seem to be rolling out updates related to outlier analysis and thumbnail generation. Also include some reasoning models on what plans can expect these features?
And also, you seem to extensively rely on YouTube transcripts for scraping and analyzing them. What if YouTube restricts access to the data in the future?

It really depends on how many videos you want to create per month. If you only need 3-4 videos per month, then tier 2 should be enough. If you plan to make videos more frequently, or plan to try multiple script variations, perhaps Tier 3 would give you a little more wiggle room.
I understand your question about features on specific tiers. It's hard for me to give any feedback on which tier new features might fall under, as I typically don't plan them far in advance before building/launching. In general I prefer to give everyone access to as many features as I can, but use the credit system for features that are particularly compute-intensive. That could be the case with something like thumbnails or voiceovers, although I haven't gotten there yet to analyze the costs. I wish I could give a more clear answer, I'm sorry.
Subscribr does rely quite a bit on YouTube transcripts. But there are lots of ways of producing transcripts beyond the official channels. And I already support fallback methods like providing text samples to create your channel voice.
Hope this answers your questions!
