Stop Overpaying for AI: The Top Black Friday Discounts for Developers and Creators (2025)
Every year I watch creators, developers, and small business owners bleed money on AI subscriptions. Twenty here. Thirty there. A handful of “must-have” tools that quietly add up to more than a car payment.
By the time December hits, most people don’t even know what they’re paying for anymore. They just know it “feels expensive.”
Black Friday is the one window where the smartest thing you can do is hit pause, reassess your stack, and lock in the tools that actually move your business forward.
The problem is simple: most Black Friday “AI deals” are garbage.
Wrapper apps you’ll never use. Lifetime deals from startups that won’t exist by summer. Overhyped tools with 90 percent-off banners slapped on top of a weak product.
So I filtered out the noise. I verified every deal below. No fluff. No scams. Just real tools that I personally use in my workflow at Rezzivo AI.
These discounts will save you real money without slowing down your momentum.
The Headliners: The Deals Worth Acting On
If you only buy one or two things this week, focus here. These are the power tools with real leverage behind them.
1. Perplexity Pro – 50 percent Off
This is the best overall deal in the AI space this year. Perplexity has quietly become the research tool most high-level builders use. It’s fast, accurate, and puts GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and DeepSeek in one pipeline with live search.
The deal: 50 percent off when you check out using PayPal.
Why it matters: It replaces multiple subscriptions.
Valid: Nov 28 to Dec 1.
For anyone doing content research, development, or data analysis, this is a no-brainer. I use it every day at Rezzivo.
2. Adobe Creative Cloud – 50 percent Off First Year

Same discount every year, and still one of the best investments a creator can make.
This isn’t just Photoshop anymore. You get full access to Adobe Firefly for safe, commercial-use AI imagery. No copyright landmines like some other tools.
Why it matters: If you’re producing content for clients or your own brand, this pays for itself fast.
3. Replit – 30 percent Off Hacker Plan

Replit went from an online IDE to a full AI software creation platform. If you’re building apps, prototypes, or custom AI tools like we do at Rezzivo, you’ll get value out of this instantly.
The deal:
30 percent off the annual Hacker plan
20 percent off Teams Pro
Why it matters: Real discounts on developer infrastructure don’t come often.
Developers: Your Coding Stack Discounts
This is where people tend to get trapped by fake discounts. Copilot doesn’t run Black Friday deals. Cursor doesn’t run Black Friday deals. Tabnine rarely drops prices.
If you see 90 percent off, it’s almost always a reseller or a scam.
Here are the real ones worth considering.
Bolt.new – 20 percent Off Annual Pro
“Prompt-to-app” tools are blowing up, but Bolt is actually good.
You describe the app and it scaffolds a full-stack project. If you’re trying to move fast, especially in the early days of a build, this can save hours.
Mistral AI – 25 percent Off API and Platform
If you’re building apps and want more control than OpenAI gives you, Mistral’s discount is solid. Their models are efficient and the pricing is great even without the sale.
Udemy and Pluralsight – Courses for $9.99
If you’ve been meaning to learn LLM fine-tuning, system design, or advanced Python, now’s the time. Year-round pricing never gets close to this.
Creators: Video, Design, and Audio Deals
Descript – Annual Plan Discount
Cuts editing time dramatically. You edit video by editing the transcript. The Pro tier dropping to roughly $14 a month is worth it if you’re creating regularly.
Kling AI and Higgsfield – 50 percent Off Credits
These “Sora competitors” are getting good fast. If you’ve been itching to test high-end AI video for marketing or short-form content, stock up now.
Divi AI – Up to 73 percent Off
If you build websites, Divi’s AI integration saves a lot of time. Text, code, image generation right inside WordPress.
Writers and Knowledge Workers
Jasper – 30 to 40 percent Off Annual Plans
Jasper still excels at brand voice enforcement for teams. If you manage multiple clients or need consistent long-form content, this is one of the best deals you’ll find.
Saner.AI – 50 percent Off First Two Months
Saner is like a better-organized second brain. It pulls notes, highlights, ideas, and tasks into one interface. The discount is small but worth it.
Notion Templates – 50 percent Off
Notion’s marketplace is full of creators dropping their best templates to half price. If you’re building a knowledge base or operations dashboard, now is the time to grab them.
The Aggregator Play: The Real Smart-Money Move
1min.AI – Lifetime Deal and Annual Discounts
This is the “subscription killer” move if you’re tired of juggling multiple tools.
You get access to GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Gemini, and Llama 3 under one roof.
The catch:
It runs on credits. If you’re building eight hours a day like I do at Rezzivo, you’ll burn through it fast. But for moderate users, it’s incredible value.
Final Advice: What You Should Actually Buy
If you’re overwhelmed, here’s the clear-cut strategy I’d tell any client:
For research: Grab Perplexity Pro. It replaces half your workflow.
For coding: Replit or Mistral credits.
For creative work: Adobe Creative Cloud with Firefly.
For general productivity: A good Notion template and Descript if you edit video.
Most deals expire between December 1 and December 3. If something fits your workflow, move now.
And if you want to take your business further with automation, AI assistants, or custom app builds, that’s exactly what we do at Rezzivo AI. Black Friday is when the tools get cheaper, but the strategy still determines who wins.
If you want to build faster, automate more, and get ahead in 2025, this is the moment to tighten your tech stack and level up.
