Quick pricing verdict

Starting price
$24.99/mo for the Max plan (iOS pricing).
Free plan
Yes. Free tier shows 'None' for AI usage credits and includes basic tools like trimming, transitions, and some media library assets.
Best plan for most people
Max at $24.99/mo, labeled 'MOST POPULAR' on the page, with 500 credits per month.
Plan to avoid first
Scale at $69.99/mo. It is aimed at higher-volume output and adds 1,400 credits and 1x/2x/4x usage tiers you do not need until you are generating heavily.
Biggest hidden cost
The page publishes no overage rate or credit top-up price, so running out of credits mid-month has no stated cost.

Captions lists three paid tiers plus a free plan. Prices shown are $24.99/mo for Max and $69.99/mo for Scale, with Enterprise marked Custom pricing. The page also notes that 'Features and prices reflect iOS plans only,' so web or Android pricing may differ.

All paid tiers include the same core editing toolkit. The difference between Max and Scale is AI usage volume: Max ships 500 credits per month, Scale ships 1,400 credits per month and unlocks additional 1x/2x/4x usage tiers for the most sophisticated generative models.

What each plan includes

Free

Includes
Traditional video editing tools (teleprompter, trim, zoom, sound effects, transitions, resize), captions in 100+ languages, one-tap caption templates (1), downloadable transcripts, and one-tap video generation.
Missing
All generative AI features, AI Edit styles, AI Twin, AI Music, AI Sounds, AI Voiceover, AI Image, AI Video, AI Translate, AI Lipdub, AI Shorts, Reddit to Reel, AI Voice Clone, AI Denoise, AI Sound Effects, and AI Censor. AI usage credits listed as 'None'.
Avoid if
You want any of the AI generation or translation features that drive Captions' value.
Verdict
A usable sampler for trimming and captioning. Skip if you came for the AI video tools.

Max

Includes
Everything in Free, plus AI Edit styles, AI Creator, AI Ads, AI Skits, AI Twin, AI Edit, Clips, chat-based editor, generative AI editing, AI Music, AI Sounds, AI Voiceover, AI Image, AI Video, AI Translate, AI Lipdub, AI Shorts, Reddit to Reel, AI Voice Clone, AI Denoise, AI Sound Effects, AI Censor, and 500 credits per month.
Missing
The 1x/2x/4x usage tiers and the highest tier of generative AI models (Scale-only).
Avoid if

Verdict
The labeled 'MOST POPULAR' tier and the right starting point for most solo founders.

Scale

Includes
Everything in Max, plus 1,400 credits per month and 1x, 2x, and 4x usage tiers plus 'our most sophisticated tier of generative AI models.'
Missing
Nothing feature-wise versus Max; the gaps are at the Enterprise tier (bulk discounts, custom seats, dedicated AM, training data exclusion, onboarding, priority training, beta access).
Avoid if
Your monthly credit burn is comfortably under 500 or you do not need the top generative model tier.
Verdict
Worth it once 500 monthly credits are a recurring bottleneck; otherwise overkill.

Enterprise

Includes
Bulk credit discounts, custom seat options, dedicated account management team, training data exclusion, customer onboarding, priority training, hands-on support, and early access to beta and new features.
Missing
No published price, seat count, or credit volume.
Avoid if

Verdict
Only relevant for teams that need procurement terms, custom seats, and data controls.
