## Is Captions worth it?

Captions is a well-made AI video editor, and its AI Ads tool turns a product URL into a UGC-style avatar ad for about 75¢ per 15 seconds on the Max plan, which is cheaper per clip than Addy. If you want to make and edit avatar ads yourself on your phone, it is a good pick. Addy is an agent rather than an editor: it researches the brand, writes concepts across 16 formats and posts to Reels, TikTok and Shorts, with its own actor library, your own face and remix from a link.

## How we compared

- Prices are each vendor's public monthly list price in US dollars, last checked October 26, 2026. Yearly-billing discounts are noted next to the plan where the vendor publishes them.
- Cost per video ad is the monthly price divided by how many short portrait video ads the plan buys. When a vendor sells credits or minutes, we convert at its published rate; when it publishes no rate, we use third-party reports and label the figure as reported.
- Features come from each vendor's own site and docs. A dash means we could not confirm a feature, not that it is missing.
- Addy is our product. To keep that from tilting the page, tools are listed alphabetically, Addy is scored on the same criteria, and its limits are published on the [facts page](https://use-addy.site/facts).
- Something out of date? Tell us on the [contact page](https://use-addy.site/contact) and we will correct the page and its date.
