When to choose Creatify

Creatify makes more sense if you want the whole ad built from a product link.

You sell many products and nobody writes your ads. Paste a product link and Creatify writes the script.
You want ads built around your product photos. Starter includes 200+ ad templates.
You want many versions at once. Batch Mode makes a dozen variations in one go.
You want to launch and test ads from the same tool. Creatify can test two versions of an ad against each other on Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Snap and Amazon.
You want to try it for free first. The free plan makes up to 2 ads a month, with a watermark.
Keep in mind that the 100 credits on Starter can run out fast if you make many versions.

When to choose MakeUGC

MakeUGC makes more sense if you want to start from a script and pick from a big choice of AI actors.

You already have a script, or want one written. MakeUGC starts from a script, and every plan includes unlimited AI scripts.
You want a big choice of actors on the first plan. MakeUGC has more than 1,000 on every plan, and you can create your own.
You want to turn a PDF, like a product sheet, into a video. PDF-to-video comes with Pro, at $149 a month.
You have a developer who wants to make videos from your own software. MakeUGC's API plans start at $99 a month.
Keep in mind that there is no free plan, and the prices shown are 50% off promotional prices.

Where Cutroom fits

Creatify and MakeUGC replace the person on camera with an AI actor. Cutroom keeps a real person on camera and does the editing for you.

You upload one clip of someone talking, like you or a happy customer, up to 3 minutes long.
Cutroom cuts it, adds captions timed to the voice, puts b-roll on the words you pick and adds a hook.
B-roll never covers more than 52% of the video, so the speaker stays on screen for most of it.
You get a finished 9:16 MP4. A 30-second ad costs 110 credits: 100 to edit, plus 20 per minute of export.
It does not write ads from a product link and has no AI actor library.
Your first video is free, with no card, and you have 7 days to make it. It carries a Cutroom mark; Lite at $19.99 a month removes it.
