What Captions does

Captions is an AI-powered video editing platform: upload raw footage and its AI Edit feature applies automated professional-style cuts, B-roll, and transitions, plus stylised captions in 100+ languages. On top of editing, Captions offers AI avatar generation through its Mirage Avatar X model — digital twins and "AI Actors" that handle voice, micro-expressions, eye contact, and body language together.

It targets a broad audience — individual creators (beauty, fitness, fashion, food, education) and businesses (ecommerce, real estate, healthcare, legal) alike — rather than specialising in ecommerce ad creative the way Creatify does.

Key features

  • AI Edit — automated professional-style editing from raw footage (cuts, B-roll, transitions)
  • AI Twin / digital-twin avatar generation and AI Actors (avatar performers), via Mirage Avatar X
  • Eye-contact correction for a more natural on-camera look
  • Captions and translation in 100+ languages
  • Chat/prompt-based editing interface — describe the edit you want in natural language

Pros and cons

Cons:

- Not ecommerce-ad-specific — no product-URL ingestion, ad copywriting, or ad-account publishing

- Avatar feature is secondary to editing, with a smaller dedicated actor pool than Arcads

- Zero product-photography capability

- Credit system across four paid tiers can be confusing to budget against precisely

Who Captions is for — and who it isn't

Captions is a good fit if: you already have (or plan to shoot) raw footage and want it edited automatically, with an AI avatar option available when useful — across a wide range of content types, not just ecommerce.

Captions is not the right fit if: your primary goal is high-volume ecommerce ad testing from a product URL — Creatify's ad-ops-specific tooling is more directly built for that.

Neither Captions nor its ecommerce-ad-focused alternatives touch product photography — for that, Sellable generates studio, lifestyle, and on-model shots, plus its own AI Actor library (360+ scripts, 36 scenarios) and product-led UGC video, from a single product photo. See Sellable vs Captions.

FAQ

Is Captions good for ecommerce ads?

It can work — the AI avatar feature can produce spokesperson-style ad content — but it's not purpose-built for ecommerce specifically. There's no product-URL ingestion or ad-account publishing the way Creatify offers.

What is Mirage Avatar X?

Captions' AI avatar model, available from the Max tier ($24.99/month), which generates digital-twin or AI-actor performances handling voice, expressions, eye contact, and body language together.

Does Captions generate product photography?

No. It's a video editing and avatar platform — no standalone studio or lifestyle product-photography output.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — basic editing and captions in 100+ languages, with no avatar feature (that requires the Max tier or above).
