1Where they differ

Only Captions' pages list reframing a video to vertical. Only Submagic's pages list getting the video onto platforms, watermarks on exports and the highest export resolution. On automatic captions, Captions reads “Captions in many languages” and Submagic “automatic captions”. On cutting a long video into short clips they agree: clips cut from a long video. On generating footage with AI, Captions reads “AI actors and new footage” and Submagic “new footage from a prompt”. On AI voiceover and dubbing they agree: translation or dubbing. On B-roll and stock footage they agree: AI-picked B-roll. On cleaning up audio and picture they agree: audio and picture cleanup.

Where one app is silent, a product page may list what its pricing page leaves out.
