Stock video sites provide footage for projects where licensing terms and file specifications matter. Compare buying models and license types, including commercial licensing and editorial footage, against how you intend to use each clip. Maximum resolution can help establish technical fit, while monthly download limits and free-plan availability affect access. Check paid starting prices as well, and consider whether API access is relevant to your workflow. Storyblocks leads the ranking, with Coverr, Pexels, Pixabay, and Mixkit next. ProductionCrate, Adobe Stock, and Videezy are also among the first entries. Use these comparison points to balance footage needs, usage permissions, and the way you plan to source clips.
26 stock video websites ranked on what their makers publish — plans and prices, free tiers, platforms and the facts on their own pages.
