Source: submagic.co/pricing. Prices are US list prices in USD, read from each vendor pricing page on the date above. Vendors localise pricing by country — we saw GetResponse quote in Vietnamese dong from a Vietnamese connection — so what you see may differ. Always confirm on the vendor page before buying.
Reasons to consider it
- Fast auto-captions, b-rolls and edits for short-form video — the workflow reviewers credit with real time savings
- Both samples land well: 4.5 on Trustpilot from 840 reviews and 4.6 on G2 from 85
- Card-free trial lets you test caption accuracy on your own footage first
Reasons to look elsewhere
- No permanent free plan, and the Starter tier caps videos at 2 minutes
- Credits meter output — heavy creators move up tiers or buy API packs quickly
- A minority report cancellation friction and occasional bugs
What the review scores say
Submagic holds 4.6 out of 5 on G2 from 85 reviews, and 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot from 840 reviews.
Submagic reviews consistently well: 4.5 on Trustpilot from 840 reviews and 4.6 on G2 from 85. The samples agree, and the company replies to about 60% of negative Trustpilot reviews — both good signs. The usual caveat applies: watch credit burn if you publish daily.
What we cannot tell you
How Submagic feels after a month of real use. Whether support actually answers when something breaks. Whether the workflow fits your specific case. Those need an account and real use, and we have not done that. Anyone publishing those answers without doing the work is guessing, and you deserve to know which is which.
Where it sits against the others
If Submagic is not the fit, these are worth a look:
- VideoGen — no free plan, paid from $19/user/mo billed yearly ($29 month-to-month)
- Akool — free plan: Starter at $0: up to 1080p, 15-minute videos, watermark, selected models, paid from Paid tiers priced in-app; credits and concurrency sold as packs
- MagicLight — free plan: limited credits to start, no card required, paid from $7.50/mo billed yearly ($90/yr, Standard)
