Overview

Captions started as a mobile caption app and now includes AI editing, AI actors and clip tools, sold on credit-based plans. Its own pages disagree on the Max price, so treat the figure here as approximate and check the live page. It suits phone-based talking-head creators more than desktop editors. Check the vendor page for current plan details.
