Pika's crossing point is the $28 plan, not the $8 one
Pika's watermark-free download is included from the Pro plan at twenty-eight dollars a month billed yearly, or thirty-five billed monthly. The eight-dollar Standard plan is paid and still marked. As of 2026-09-12.

| The recorded value | Watermark-free from $28 Pro |
| The vendor's own words | Watermark-free download is included from the Pro plan upward, and not on Standard. |
| How the reading was taken | Read from the first plan whose icon beside the download line is a tick rather than a crossed circle. |
Inclusion rule. One row for the value, one for the sentence or absence behind it, one for the method. Nothing here is drawn from output, support replies or coverage by anyone else. Order. Fixed order: the value, then its evidence, then the method.

1A paid plan that changes nothing about the file
Most of this column can be read as a single boundary between paying and not paying. Two rows here cannot, and this is one of them. Standard is a subscription with a price, and output from it carries whatever output from the free plan carries, because the icon beside the download line is the crossed form on both.
That matters to anyone reasoning about contributors by whether they pay. A collaborator on Standard is a paying customer whose files are in the free state, and nothing in an invoice distinguishes them from a collaborator on Pro. The question a production has to ask is which plan, not whether a plan.
2Two prices for one crossing point
The plan is priced at twenty-eight a month billed yearly and thirty-five billed monthly, so the crossing point costs either three hundred and thirty-six up front or thirty-five a month. Both figures are the same boundary; which one a reader quotes depends on a commitment question the register has no view on.
The cell records the yearly figure because that is the number the page prints largest, and this paragraph records the other one. Elsewhere in the register a vendor prints twenty-nine monthly and eighteen yearly for the same tier, a wider gap, which is why the register keeps both figures in the prose rather than averaging them into one.
3The licence crosses at the same place, which is not general
The crossed icon on the free and eight-dollar plans covers commercial use as well as watermark-free download, so on this vendor the two boundaries coincide. A file clean enough to publish is also licensed to be published, and there is no tier where one holds without the other.
That coincidence is worth stating because it does not hold next door. On one other generator here the marking boundary sits a full plan below the commercial-use boundary, which produces a tier whose output is clean and unpublishable. The register records the two lines separately for that reason, even where they agree.
