Flexible plans

Transparent and fair pricing is our mantra. Get started right away with a starter package. Or build your own plan, with a long list of always-included features. Two words sum it up: great value.

  • 01

    Priced for your budget

    Value for money means paying a fair price for what you need. Start with a basic plan and scale from there. And if you're still not sure (or fancy a discount) drop us a note.

  • 02

    AI in every plan

    LightRocket combines human governance with the power of artificial intelligence. So, whatever your plan, AI features like tagging and facial recognition are always included.

  • 03

    Training and Support

    We take the service part of software very seriously. The approach is and personal and collaborative. Sharing decades of experience and know-how. We're always happy to help.

Configured for you

There’s nothing standard about LightRocket. Our expert team will help configure your platform, so it reflects your workflows and the realities of your business.

  • 01

    Built for your workflow

    Libraries, data fields, roles and permissions, configured to match your workflow.

    Make it yours

    Branding is part of the value. Add your logo and identity. Make the value of LightRocket fully yours.

  • 03

    We build what is missing

    Something missing? Something we could do better? Tell us and we’ll work out how to add it.

Who built it

Lightrocket isn’t just a business. It’s our passion. For over two decades we’ve been evolving and solving media management challenges for clients around the world.

  • 01

    Over 20 years in the making

    Our founders are media professionals. They've invested their first-hand experience, and passion, into building world-class software.

  • 02

    Straight answers

    If LightRocket is the wrong fit for what you are describing, you will hear that on the first call rather than the fourth.

  • 03

    An ever-evolving project

    LightRocket is as much a project as a product. Work never stops on improving and evolving what we've built.

Always improving (even after you buy)

New features arrive through the year and land on your system without a migration, a new licence or a day of downtime.

  • 01

    Upgrades are included

    Core improvements ship to everyone. There is no old version you get left behind on because you bought in the wrong year.

  • 02

    Your requests get built

    Most of what we add started as a customer describing something we could do better. Tell us how we can improve.

  • 03

    Nothing to reimport

    Updates apply to your existing library in place. Your files, keywords and permissions stay exactly as they were.

From one of our co-founders

We’re a small team driven by a passion for what we do, and by a strong belief that we can always do better. For us, small is beautiful because it means we can keep our style personal. And we can evolve with an agility that ensures we are always on the cutting edge.
