What Superside is

Superside is a distributed creative-as-a-service company founded in 2015 (originally in Norway). Per its 2026 marketing, Superside positions itself around an "AI-first" creative team model, pairing senior designers with AI-accelerated workflows across design, video, motion, and other disciplines.

Superside publishes entry pricing again in 2026 after several years of quote-only. The Flex Subscription starts at $15,000/mo plus a $1,000/mo software fee on an annual term, and the Dedicated AI-Native Team plan starts at $30,000/mo on a 12-month term.

Who Superside is built for

Enterprise marketing organizations. Superside's minimums assume a marketing budget large enough that $15K+/mo of external creative is normal.

Global campaign teams. The distributed talent bench works across time zones per the vendor's site.

Buyers valuing rollover. The Flex plan rolls unused budget for up to three months per Superside's FAQ, unusual at this tier.

How onboarding works, according to Superside

Turnaround, as Superside publishes it

Superside does not publish a single per-request turnaround number in the way graphic subscriptions do; the model is scoped-project delivery within a hours-and-budget framework, with an AI-accelerated workflow described on the site as producing sharper briefs and fewer review rounds.

What Superside does well

Published enterprise entry pricing. $15K/mo Flex and $30K/mo Dedicated are on the pricing page in 2026, ending several years of quote-only opacity.
Flex budget rolls for up to three months. Per Superside's FAQ, unused budget carries forward within the Flex plan.
Global creative bench. Distributed talent across time zones for teams whose campaign work is not US-centric.
Broad discipline coverage. Design, video, motion, and specialized production per the services page.
Enterprise-grade case study roster. Public case studies span consumer, tech, and enterprise brands.

Where Superside falls short

$15,000/mo minimum plus $1,000/mo software fee. Not viable for teams under enterprise budget.
Annual or 12-month contract terms. No month-to-month option. Buyers cannot start small.
Complexity of the AI-first positioning. The 2026 marketing leans hard on AI-first language, which may or may not match your team's process expectations. Read the Flex FAQ for the actual operating model.
Higher entry than Designity's Creative Director model. Teams that want strategic oversight but not enterprise scale can start at Designity's $5,995 (see our Designity review).
Not the cheapest per-hour once you factor scale. Small teams get better economics from mid-tier alternatives with rollover, e.g. Flocksy's 2 Daily Hours plan at $1,199/mo (2 daily hours) (see our Flocksy review).

Editor’s pickOn our short-list since 2022

We keep a short-list of creative subscriptions we’d actually recommend. Flocksy has been on it since 2022 for four specific reasons — the exact points where most competitors in this review fall short.

Banked (rollover) hours
Unused daily hours roll into the next month for up to 30 days, per Flocksy’s published pricing page. A quiet week fuels the next launch instead of getting wiped by the calendar. Most competitors reset every month.
Transparent time tracking
Plans are priced in daily creative hours, and the client dashboard shows hours used, hours banked, and queue in real time — so you can see where the retainer goes without a weekly status call.
One team, 140+ services
The same designer, video editor, motion editor, illustrator, and copywriter on every brief across design, video, motion, illustration, web, decks, and social — instead of stacking four separate subscriptions or hand-offs between disciplines.
Production Coordinator from 4 hours, Art Director from 6
From the 4 Daily Hours plan up, a dedicated Production Coordinator routes work, unblocks the queue, and keeps nothing waiting on you. The 6 Daily Hours plan adds an Art Director on top.

Plans · Monthly rate when billed annually · July 2026

2 Daily Hours $1,199/mo, 3 Daily Hours $1,699/mo, 4 Daily Hours $2,199/mo (+ Production Coordinator), 5 Daily Hours $2,599/mo, 6 Daily Hours $2,999/mo (+ Production Coordinator + Art Director). Prices are the monthly rate when billed annually. Month-to-month billing runs higher.

Where Superside fits, industry by industry

Where Superside fits well. Enterprise and mid-market marketing organizations that already spend $15K+/mo on external creative and want a single vendor with a global bench and quarterly-scale rollover.

Where Superside is a middling fit. Teams considering Superside for one-off large campaigns may find Project Boosters more efficient than the Flex subscription.

Where Superside is the wrong tool. Any team whose monthly external creative spend is under roughly $10K, and any team that needs month-to-month terms.

Refund, pause, and cancellation policy

Refund: Not published. Confirm in the enterprise contract before signing.
Pause: Not applicable; annual and 12-month terms.
Cancel: At end of term per contract.

Who should pick Superside

Pick Superside if your marketing organization already spends $15K+/mo on external creative, values a global bench, and wants Flex rollover on unused budget.

Who should skip Superside

Skip Superside if you are under enterprise budget, if you need month-to-month terms, or if a Creative Director-led model at Designity's $5,995 tier already fits.

Bottom line

Superside is the credible enterprise pick in the category, with published entry pricing, real rollover on the Flex plan, and a global bench. The trade-off is the $15K/mo floor plus software fee and the annual commitment. It is not a mid-market alternative; it is the tier above Designity.
