What we know about Captions

Captions sits in the ai avatar video category, where it is mobile-first AI UGC/short-form video creator with AI 'digital twin' avatars as the core feature (not a general timeline editor); pricing page explicitly notes plans are iOS-only. We keep this Captions profile grounded in primary sources, each fact dated to when we last confirmed it.

Captions does not publish a public per-minute rate we have been able to verify, so the price figure here stays blank until we can confirm one. We would rather show nothing than a guessed number; if you have a current Captions quote, it is the fastest way for us to close that gap.

On capabilities, Captions covers custom avatar from footage, instant avatar from a photo, voice cloning included, and public api. Each of those is verified against Captions's own docs or dashboard, not marketing copy.

In total we track 14 verified facts for Captions today, each linking the primary source it came from so you can check our work - and vendor claims we have not measured ourselves are labeled as such on the Captions fact sheet below.
