We Dropped Subscriptions for Credits (and Opened Instagram to Everyone)

Quiki is moving off monthly subscriptions to simple, pay-as-you-go credits that never expire. Anyone with credits can now analyze Instagram Reels, not just Agency members.

We have made the biggest change to how Quiki is priced since launch. Recurring subscriptions are gone. From now on you buy credits, you spend them when you scan, and they never expire. At the same time we have opened Instagram Reels analysis to every paying user instead of locking it behind our top tier.

Here is what changed and why it is better for you.

Why we moved off subscriptions

Subscriptions punish the way most people actually use a video research tool. Some weeks you analyze fifty videos. Other weeks you analyze none. A monthly fee keeps charging either way, and an unused month is just money gone.

Credits fix that. You top up once, you spend only when you scan, and whatever you do not use stays in your account.

How credits work now

  • Buy a credit pack once. No recurring charge, no renewal date to track.
  • Credits never expire. Your balance is yours until you spend it.
  • You only spend when you scan. A quick scan, a deep scan, or a transcript each draw from the same balance.
  • Buying credits unlocks more. The moment you buy a pack, your account is upgraded automatically so you can use every platform we support.

There is nothing to cancel and nothing to remember. Top up when you need to, ignore us when you do not.

Instagram is no longer locked away

This is the part we are most excited about. Until now, analyzing Instagram Reels required our Agency plan. That put one of the most requested features behind the most expensive door.

Now Instagram is a normal, credit-backed feature. If you are holding credits, you can scan Reels right alongside TikTok and YouTube. Same library, same search, same AI analysis. Reels just work.

What this means for each kind of user

  • Free accounts keep their daily quick scans on TikTok and YouTube at no cost. When you want deep analysis or Instagram, you grab a credit pack and you are in.
  • Pay-as-you-go users get the full platform: TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, deep scans, and transcripts, all drawn from a balance that never expires.
  • Agency members keep everything they had: unlimited scans, a priority processing queue, and full API and MCP access for programmatic research. We also folded our old "Agency Plus" add-on directly into Agency, so there is one clear top tier instead of two overlapping ones.

Simpler pricing, fewer surprises

We retired the old subscription products entirely. No more deciding between monthly and annual, no more "which plan unlocks Instagram," no more cancelling to stop a charge. You buy what you need, it does not expire, and every platform is on the table the moment you have credits.

If you have been waiting to analyze Instagram content, now is the time. Top up, paste a Reel, and let Quiki do the rest.

Your saved videos miss you. Go find them.
