Short answer
Vidpros charges about $25–50 per short-form video (Starter: $1,000 a month for 20–40 shorts) and stands out for overnight turnaround. Vidchops and ShortVids land around $29–33 per short, Tasty Edits around $80–94, and YASH EDITS about $9–10 ($299 a month for 30). YASH EDITS also delivers within 24 hours with unlimited revisions.

What Vidpros does well
- Speed. Videos submitted by the end of the US business day get production revisions overnight.
- Dedicated capacity. Higher plans include a dedicated editor, a project manager and a backup editor.
- Low-risk start. A $100 trial week covers up to 10 short-form edits.
- Proof. It publishes client stories, Google and Trustpilot ratings and comparison pages.
If overnight delivery in US hours is the deciding factor and the budget fits, Vidpros is a reasonable choice.
When an alternative makes more sense
- You need volume on a tighter budget. At 30 videos a month, the difference between ~$10 and ~$33 per short is roughly $700 a month.
- Your volume goes up and down. Per-video plans cost less in quiet months than editor-hour plans.
- You resell to clients. Agencies keep more margin when the editing cost per video is low; see white-label video editing pricing.
- You want UGC ads and organic Reels from the same team. See UGC video editing and Instagram Reels editing.
How to choose in one week
- Write one brief and use it with every provider — the free video editing brief template works.
- Buy the smallest paid test each one offers and send the same raw footage.
- Score hooks, captions, pacing and how well notes were followed — not just speed.
- Work out the real monthly cost at your volume, including revisions and rush fees.
- Pick the one that wins on quality per dollar, then commit for a month.
How YASH EDITS compares honestly
YASH EDITS is a remote short-form editing studio. The main reason to pick it is cost per video: 30 edited Reels, TikToks or Shorts for $299 a month, with captions, B-roll, sound design and a quality check on every edit. Each reel is delivered within 24 hours (often sooner), revisions are unlimited, reels can run up to 2 minutes, and the studio can handle up to about 1,000 videos a month across clients. Contracts can be monthly, 6-month or annual. You can ask for a sample edit or start with a 5-video test batch before committing.
FAQ
What is the cheapest alternative to Vidpros for short-form video?
Of the services compared here, YASH EDITS publishes the lowest price per short-form video: 30 edited Reels for $299 a month, about $10 each, falling to about $9 on the 100-video plan. Vidpros’ Starter plan is $1,000 a month for 20–40 short-form videos, about $25–50 each.
Is Vidpros worth it?
Vidpros is a strong fit if you need overnight turnaround, a dedicated editor team and US-hours delivery, and your budget supports $1,000–$4,000 a month. If you mainly need a steady volume of short-form edits at a lower cost per video, a per-video studio can work out cheaper.
Which Vidpros alternative is best for agencies?
For white-label resale, compare the cost per finished video against what you charge clients. Per-video pricing (YASH EDITS, Tasty Edits) suits uneven volume; credit or retainer plans (Vidchops, ShortVids, Vidpros) suit steady volume. Always run a small paid test batch first.
Do these services offer a trial?
Vidpros advertises a $100 trial week (up to 10 short-form edits). ShortVids lists a $200 trial for 4 short-form videos. Vidchops lists a 14-day money-back guarantee. YASH EDITS offers a sample edit and a 5-video test batch at the Starter rate, about $10 a video.
