CapCut

Freemium

CapCut is a browser, desktop and mobile editor whose free tier covers cutting, captions, transitions and templates. Paid plans add AI generation: text-to-video and image-to-video through Seedance models, background removal, automatic captions and a set of effects tied to the current app version. Edits happen on a multi-track timeline, and projects export at up to 4K. A credit system meters AI generations separately from ordinary editing, and extra credits can be bought when the monthly allowance runs out. Teams get shared spaces, a brand kit and per-seat billing, while solo creators stay on Pro.

Descript

Freemium

Descript treats video and audio as editable text. It transcribes your recording, and deleting a sentence in the transcript removes that section from the timeline, which makes trimming interviews and tutorials faster than scrubbing waveforms. Studio Sound cleans up room noise and uneven levels, filler words can be stripped in one pass, and the AI co-editor drafts cuts, scripts and clips on request. It also records screen and camera, generates voice clones, and dubs finished videos into other languages on paid plans. Business tiers add avatars and brand controls. The free plan includes an hour of media a month with watermarked exports.
