How much does Reel-E cost?

Its pricing page lists three plans as of July 26, 2026: Essential at $59/month reduced to $44 on an annual commitment, Growth at $129 reduced to $97, and Pro at $599 reduced to $449. The page also advertises a rate starting at $16 per listing.

How many listings are included?

The quotas are annual: 36 listings a year on Essential, 120 on Growth, and 600 on Pro. Spreading twelve annual payments across those quotas puts a listing at roughly $14.67, $9.70, and $8.98.

Is Reel-E cheaper than CasaNova Labs?

At 120 listings a year, the two are close: about $1,164 on Reel-E's annual Growth plan versus €990 on CasaNova, in two currencies we don't convert here. The real difference is scope, our plan includes the photos, decluttering, floor plan, and video for the same price.

Which plan unlocks 4K?

4K appears on the Pro plan only, at $599/month or $449 annualized. Essential and Growth are advertised in 1080p.

Do I still need a separate tool for the listing photos?

Reel-E is built around listing video and its related retouching, not the underlying photo. Staging, decluttering, and the floor plan sit in a different tool, which means a second subscription line to manage.

Reel-E alternativeAgency comparison

The video is only as good as the photo behind it

Reel-E turns existing listing photos into short social video: $44 to $449 a month across three annual quotas, 4K reserved for the top tier. CasaNova starts one step earlier, it shoots and stages the photo, then animates it, inside the same subscription.

The real question with Reel-E isn't which video tool costs less, it's what feeds the video in the first place. Reel-E turns photos you already have into short, social-ready clips billed by the listing. CasaNova shoots the photo, stages it, and animates the result inside the same monthly plan, so no listing video depends on a photo produced somewhere else.

What an agency needs to take away

The essentials before choosing between a well-known competitor and CasaNova.

Reel-E prices Essential at $59/month, Growth at $129, and Pro at $599, down to $44, $97, and $449 on an annual commitment.

Quotas are annual (36, 120, or 600 listings a year depending on plan) and 4K only unlocks on Pro.

Spreading twelve annual payments across those quotas puts a listing at roughly $14.67, $9.70, then $8.98 depending on the tier.

Who this comparison is for

This page is for brokerages that want listing video and are weighing a dedicated video tool against a platform that also produces the photo behind it.

Team leads publishing 3 to 10 listings a month who think in listings, not raw photo counts.

Teams posting to social feeds who care about delivered resolution and turnaround.

Anyone who wants to avoid stacking a photo subscription on top of a video subscription.

What CasaNova changes at the same volume

Both models bill by the listing, so the comparison is direct. The difference sits one step earlier: where the photo that feeds the video actually comes from.

The quota resets monthly, not annually: 10 properties a month, with no annual allowance to ration by Q4.

Video isn't a separate line item: it ships with the 10 included photos, decluttering, renovation, and floor plan for the same property.

Over twelve months, the 10-property plan covers 120 listings for €1,188 billed monthly, or €990 on the annual plan, since we bill 10 months on 12.

Pricing, ROI, and time saved

Three numbers worth checking before adding a video subscription on top of your existing photo workflow.

The annual quota

36 listings a year averages out to three a month.

A brokerage closing six mandates in September and one in August has to average across the whole year. A monthly quota is easier to plan around than an annual allowance.

The cost of 4K

4K only shows up on the Pro tier.

Moving from Growth to Pro for resolution alone more than quadruples the bill, from $97 to $449 a month annualized, with the quota jumping from 120 to 600 listings.

The photo problem

A video tool doesn't produce the listing photo it animates.

Factor in the photo subscription that still has to run alongside it. Across 120 listings a year, our 10-property plan covers both in a single line item, at €990 annualized.

When Reel-E is objectively the right call

Three situations where we'd recommend Reel-E over CasaNova without reservation.

Video is your primary deliverable and a photographer already shoots your listings, you don't need the rest of the pipeline.

You need 4K and your volume justifies the Pro tier.

You want to judge quality before committing anything: Reel-E advertises a free first video.

Proof of work

Two references for this comparison: an animated listing frame, and a staged room from the same production pipeline.

Before

After CasaNova

Same property as a frame from the animated listing video

This is the frame the whole comparison hinges on: the video only looks like this because the source photo already did.

Before

After CasaNova

Same room staged with furniture by CasaNova Labs

The photo Reel-E assumes you already have: staging included in the same plan that also produces the video.
