Templater Pro earns its place in the aescripts library by extending Templater Rig into desktop automation, adding batch rendering and replication of versioned compositions driven by a data source.
Templater Pro extends Templater Rig with desktop automation for After Effects, letting you render or replicate batches of versioned compositions using your data source. Monthly recurring licensing is also available.
It fits a range of situations: clients delivering a spreadsheet of customer information who need a quick turnaround on many unique videos based on that data, studios with multiple artists working concurrently on different variations of a master composition, and studios delivering many versions of a promo or interstitial slate for network broadcasts. It also suits anyone who has purchased a Templater-compatible AE project and wants to create many unique versions of it quickly from a data source.
Activation and license verification require your system to be online and connected to the Internet. Version 3.8.0 adds per-target output configurations in multi-target jobs, validation of footage sources before batch execution, status tracking in Google Sheets for manual batches, and a preference to halt Templater batches on a missing aep. It runs across After Effects versions from 2026 back to CS5.
Templater Pro Subscription Annual Recurring is best for studios and teams producing many data-driven versions of a master composition, from spreadsheet-fed video batches to promo and interstitial slates for network broadcasts.
Templater Pro Subscription Annual Recurring is completely free to download and use.
Templater Pro runs inside After Effects and supports a wide range of releases, from After Effects 2026 back through 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020, plus the Creative Cloud versions CC 2019 through CC, and the older CS6, CS5.5, and CS5. That span means the plugin can fit into both current and legacy After Effects setups. Before configuring a batch, check the developer's page to confirm the exact requirements tied to your specific After Effects installation.
Templater Pro requires your system to be online and connected to the Internet for activation and license verification. If a machine in your render setup is offline, activation and verification will not complete, so plan for connectivity on any system running the plugin. Beyond that requirement, the tool renders or replicates batches of versioned compositions from your data source. For how licensing behaves in specific setups, the developer's page is the place to confirm the current terms.
Templater Pro is listed as free in this catalog, so you can add it without a purchase here. That said, Dataclay offers different licensing options, including monthly recurring licensing alongside the annual recurring subscription this entry covers, so the current terms are worth confirming before you commit. For the latest pricing and license details, check the developer's page, which reflects any changes to how Templater Pro is sold and activated.
Templater Pro version 3.8.0, released April 30, 2026, adds per-target output configurations in multi-target jobs, validation of footage sources before batch execution, and status tracking in Google Sheets for manual batches. It also introduces a preference to halt Templater batches on a missing aep and a more direct Templater update experience from preferences. An earlier release added support for processing multiple targets in one job. For the full changelog and any newer releases, see the developer's page.
