Avatar video ads vs product clips
They are different products. An avatar video ad has an AI presenter, a script and a voice: that is what Creatify, Arcads and HeyGen make. A product clip animates a still photo with camera moves and no presenter: that is what Photoroom's Video Generator and Claid's image-to-video make. Decide which one your campaign needs before you compare prices. What a UGC video ad is explains the first kind.
What to check before you switch
Check these five things on each tool's own pricing page:
- Presenter or clip. Only Creatify, Arcads and HeyGen have talking presenters here.
- Languages. Creatify lists 75+ languages, HeyGen 175+ languages and dialects on paid plans, Arcads translation into more than 30.
- Public prices. Creatify, HeyGen and Photoroom publish their plans. Arcads does not.
- Cost per second. Video costs grow with length: Creatify's docs say its video credits scale with duration, and Claid charges 60 credits per 5 seconds.
- Free plan limits. Creatify's free plan watermarks exports; HeyGen's allows 3 videos a month of up to 1 minute.
Where ProduktShot fits
Use ProduktShot next to a video tool, not instead of one. It makes product photos from 103 ready-made scenes and ad posters from 122 templates, starting with 16 credits free at sign-up and plans from €29 a month. Video and UGC ads are in development, with no date yet. For Arcads in detail, see ProduktShot vs Arcads.
