Brilliant Directories add ons: limit blocks, plan features and the VIP club

Brilliant Directories add ons: blocks, included add-ons and the club

Brilliant Directories add ons come in three kinds: $1-a-month blocks that raise a limit, add-ons included on certain plans, and the VIP Add-Ons Club, one subscription that the vendor says covers all its add-ons. As read on October 23, 2026, the account pricing page sells +1,000 members, +1,000 emails or +10 AI credits at $1 a month each, and storage or bandwidth at $1 a GB. Other prices sit on the vendor's own pages.

Blocks that raise a limit for $1 a month

Separate from the $1 blocks, the Email Limit Boost, a paid add-on on the vendor's boost pages, removes the 1,500 daily limit, and unused sends do not carry over to the next month.

The account pricing page gives Essentials, Builder and Pro 5,000, 25,000 and 50,000 emails a month, while a help article says every website plan gets 1,500 daily sends, 45,000 a month, so confirm the email limit before you send to a large list.

The account pricing page's FAQ lists 5GB, 10GB and 20GB of storage by tier, while its boost pages say default plans include 10GB of storage and 10GB a month of bandwidth, so ask for your plan's figures in writing.

Quotas can lead to suspension, per the terms; Brilliant Directories review covers that limit. Directory website builder cost per month adds blocks to a tier's price.

Add-ons that come with Builder and Pro

Easy Coupon Codes, Free Trial Period (a free trial for your own members) and Members-Only Content are included on Builder, $80 a month, and Pro, $120 a month, both billed monthly on the account pricing page. Essentials leaves them out, per the vendor's add-on pages. The account pricing page lists API access, webhooks and MCP, a way to let your own AI assistant work on the site, from Builder.

Add-ons the Lifetime Plans charge for, and the VIP Add-Ons Club

The add-on pages' plan tables name two plan sets: Lifetime Plans, with and without the VIP Add-Ons Club, and Essentials, Builder and Pro. Export Member Data, SSL Secure Website, 14-Day Website Backups and Claimable Business Listings are included on Essentials, Builder and Pro and not on Lifetime Plans without the club, so some listed features are paid add-ons on the lifetime plans.

The terms' seven-day money-back guarantee covers new, full-price subscription plans only and excludes lifetime offers; Brilliant Directories pricing covers the price layouts. The club covers all of the vendor's add-ons, including later releases, and each website needs its own club subscription.

AI credit packs, boosts and refunds

AI credit packs are one-time purchases that the vendor says never expire. BD Butler, the vendor's AI assistant inside the admin area, spends one credit per request. Usage-based add-ons such as email and AI credits are non-refundable once used, per the pricing FAQ, and the terms, effective February 18, 2026, make boosts and one-time purchases non-refundable from purchase.

eDirectory suits an owner who would rather pay for unlimited listings and members than buy blocks: Professional is $99 a month, billed monthly. The vendor's trial page offers a 7-day free trial and says it gives full access with no credit card required.
