The biggest change: restructured plans
This grouptoolz update may 2026 covers everything that changed this month — new plans, new tools, new stores, and what is coming next.
This is the headline grouptoolz update may 2026 item. The platform has completely restructured its pricing. There are now six specialty plans plus three custom tiers. The thinking behind this is pretty obvious: a graphic designer should not have to pay for SEMrush, and an SEO freelancer should not have to pay for AI video generators. Each plan is built around a specific type of work.
| Plan | Price | Tools | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lite | ₹199/mo | 10+ | Beginners: Canva, Glorify, Moz, Wordtune |
| Pro | ₹399/mo | 20+ | Bloggers, freelancers: adds Semrush Guru, Seobility, Grammarly, QuillBot, LinkedIn Learning, Scribd |
| Advanced (Most Popular) | ₹499/mo | 60+ | Full-stack: adds Envato, Storyblocks, Freepik, Epidemic Sound, SpyFu, Serpstat, VidIQ, Netflix, Prime Video, Skillshare |
| Designer’s Pack | ₹349/mo | 20+ | Creatives: Envato, Motion Array, CapCut Pro, Creative Fabrica, Kittl, Iconscout, Pikbest, Lovepik |
| Writer’s Pack | ₹799/mo | 30+ | Writers: Jasper AI, Frase.io, NeuronWriter, HIX AI, Writesonic, GPTZero, Grammarly, QuillBot |
| AI Plan | ₹2,499/mo | 40+ | AI creators: ChatGPT Plus, Perplexity, Grok, Leonardo AI, Flux, Sora, Nano Banana Pro, Whisk-Imagen 4 |
Custom Plan Builder: pick your own tools
If none of the specialty plans quite match your workflow, the Custom Plan Builder lets you hand-pick tools from the full grouptoolz new tools catalog.
| Custom tier | Price | You pick |
|---|---|---|
| Medium Plan | ₹899/mo | Any 15 tools |
| Heavy Plan | ₹1,099/mo | Any 25 tools |
| Mega Pack | ₹1,299/mo | Any 35 tools |
| Why the specialty packs matter Here is the practical impact. A graphic designer gets Envato Elements, Storyblocks, Motion Array, Freepik, CapCut Pro, Creative Fabrica, and 20+ design tools for ₹349/month. No Semrush. No Grammarly. Just design tools. An SEO freelancer gets Semrush Guru, Moz, Seobility, Grammarly, and QuillBot on the Pro plan at ₹399/month. No design assets cluttering things up. A content writer gets Jasper AI, Frase.io, NeuronWriter, and 27 more writing tools for ₹799/month. No video editing tools in the way. You pay for what you actually use. That is the whole point of this grouptoolz changelog restructure. |
100+ single tools: buy only what you need
The single tools marketplace is the other big piece of the grouptoolz update may 2026 puzzle. You can now buy individual tool access without subscribing to any bundled plan. Here are the prices as of this month.
| Tool | Price | Tool | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skillshare | ₹49/mo | Coursera | ₹49/mo |
| LinkedIn Learning | ₹49/mo | Codecademy | ₹49/mo |
| Scribd | ₹49/mo | Blinkist | ₹49/mo |
| Canva Pro | ₹99/mo | Moz Pro | ₹99/mo |
| BuzzSumo | ₹99/mo | Netflix | ₹99/mo |
| Grammarly | ₹99/mo | SEOSiteCheckup | ₹99/mo |
| Semrush (Guru) | ₹199/mo | Envato Elements | ₹199/mo |
| Epidemic Sound | ₹199/mo | Jasper AI | ₹199/mo |
| SpyFu | ₹199/mo | Serpstat | ₹199/mo |
| Frase.io | ₹199/mo | Motion Array | ₹199/mo |
| Storyblocks | ₹199/mo | Glorify | ₹199/mo |
| Prime Video | ₹199/mo | Whisk | ₹199/mo |
| CapCut Pro | ₹249/mo | VidIQ | ₹249/mo |
| Creative Fabrica | ₹249/mo | Udemy | ₹249/mo |
| NeuronWriter | ₹299/mo | Freepik | ₹299/mo |
| Flux 1.1 | ₹299/mo | Piktochart | ₹299/mo |
| Descript | ₹349/mo | Submagic IO | ₹349/mo |
| Majestic | ₹349/mo | Artlist IO | ₹349/mo |
| Grok | ₹349/mo | HIX AI | ₹349/mo |
| ChatGPT Plus | ₹399/mo | Helium 10 | ₹399/mo |
| Leonardo AI | ₹399/mo | Perplexity AI | ₹399/mo |
| Vizard AI | ₹399/mo | Renderforest | ₹399/mo |
| ChatGPT 5 | ₹449/mo | Ideogram AI | ₹499/mo |
| StockIMG AI | ₹499/mo | Jogg AI | ₹499/mo |
| Veo 3 + Nano Banana | ₹599/mo | Graphics Pro Combo | ₹699/mo |
Quick math for context. Need just Semrush and Canva Pro? That is ₹199 + ₹99 = ₹298/month for exactly those two tools. Need Semrush, Grammarly, Canva, and LinkedIn Learning? That comes to ₹199 + ₹99 + ₹99 + ₹49 = ₹446/month. Or just grab the Pro plan at ₹399 which includes all four plus 16 more. Sometimes the bundle is cheaper than buying individually. Sometimes it is not. The point is you now have the choice.

Payment, support, and policy updates
Payments go through Razorpay (INR: UPI, net banking, cards) and Stripe (USD: credit/debit cards). GroupToolz does not save any billing data. Everything is handled by the payment gateway.
One thing I appreciate about this platform: there is no auto-renewal on any plan. All transactions are initiated manually. Your membership expires at the end of the purchased period. You do not need to cancel. It just stops. If you want to continue, you re-subscribe. You are never charged without actively choosing to pay. I wish more SaaS platforms worked this way.
Support runs 18/7 via WhatsApp and live chat from 10 AM to 11 PM IST, all 7 days. Email support at grouptoolz@gmail.com is available 24/7. The WhatsApp Community channel covers real-time updates on tool status, grouptoolz new tools additions, and platform announcements.
The refund policy has been clarified this month. Refunds are considered when a tool marked as “Stable” is non-functional for 3+ consecutive days, the support team cannot resolve it within that period, and the refund request is raised within 7 days of purchase. All conditions must be met.

What is coming in June 2026
| June 2026 preview I cannot confirm specific tools before they launch, but here is what the team is working on. More AI video generation tools as the Veo 3.1 and Kling ecosystem keeps expanding. Additional single tool options to fill gaps based on user requests. Dashboard UX improvements based on WhatsApp Community feedback. Possible new specialty packs built around the most-requested tool combos. Seasonal discount codes for summer 2026. Join the WhatsApp Community channel to find out what new on GroupToolz as updates go live. |
| The May 2026 bottom line GroupToolz in May 2026 is a much more flexible platform than it was at launch. Six specialty plans mean you can pay for just the tools that match your work. Over 100 single tools mean you can buy exactly what you need, nothing more. Custom tiers let you hand-pick 15, 25, or 35 tools. The GPL Store and GFX Store add useful extras. And the Semrush upgrade to Guru (retail $249.95/month, starting at ₹199 on GroupToolz) is probably the single biggest value add this month. If you have been on the fence, the grouptoolz update may 2026 changes make a stronger case than ever. |
