Artivive Creator Account (ACA) 

Artivive offers one type of account with upgrade and add-on possibilities. This account is a freemium account – any creative can sign up and use it for free up to a certain number of scans (views). 

Once you register, you will be assigned a free Artivive Creator Account, also known as Basic. With the Basic account you have up to 50 views a month and access to the basic editor only. Once you have created your account you can then upgrade to one of our higher subscription tiers for more creative fun and benefits!

You can start with a 14-day free trial for the Pro subscription allowing you to enter the 3D/pro mode to have more control over your projects! For more information about 3D/pro click here.

You are able to upgrade or downgrade your account according to your needs and wishes at any time.

Here is the overview of the available plans:

All our plans/subscriptions are monthly priced and can be changed or canceled at any time. To encourage long-term commitment we offer a 17% discount for yearly plans, meaning you are able to purchase a yearly plan and receive two months for free. The monthly or yearly subscription will renew automatically.

VIEW LIMITS

Your Bridge account allows you to upload an unlimited number of artworks. However, there is a monthly view limit that applies to the total number of times all artworks in your account can be viewed. The number of views included in your subscription/plan applies to your entire account and not to each individual artwork. For instance, if you have a Pro plan with a monthly limit of 1000 views, you can view all of your artworks a total of 1000 times per month.

You can see how many views you used in the current month on the bar in your Bridge dashboard.

Once the monthly view limit has been reached, you will receive a pop-up message in your Bridge account (see below). When this happens you have several options:

    • Holders of the basic plan are able to upgrade their subscription, this way the number of your monthly views will increase and the artworks in your account will stay active. If you do not upgrade, the artworks in your account will be temporarily deactivated (you can edit them, but you will not be able to scan them with Artivive App). The artworks will be activated automatically when the views count resets (new month).
    • Holders of pro, pro plus, or business account, can choose between upgrading their plan, adding additional views (more information below), or setting a cost control, where you will be charged per view after using all your available views (more information below).

Emails will be sent when: 50%, 80%, and 100% of the limit is reached, the add-on was added, and/or the artwork was set inactive to not generate any more costs.
