There is no sign-up wall, no card on file and no trial clock counting down. You pay only to lift a limit, and only once you know the program is worth it. [Download free](https://royalsoftworks.com/download/) [See the price list](https://royalsoftworks.com/pricing/) 1. 01 ### Download it free No account and no card. It installs like any other program and runs on your own computer. 2. 02 ### Use the real thing The free version is the program itself, not a demo, and it does not expire. Where there is a limit it is one thing, written on the price list: a cap per cleanup, a timer on the subtitles, a watermark on the stream. 3. 03 ### Pay once it has earned its place Most Pro versions are a single payment you keep for good, updates included; the others are monthly plans you can stop at any time. The licence key arrives by email straight after checkout, and a first purchase is refundable within 14 days. Payments go through Paddle, our reseller, which issues the receipt and handles VAT. We never see your card.
