Common Pitfalls
There is no permanent free tier - after the 14-day trial expires, you can no longer output for free. All trial outputs have a Pictory watermark and are limited to low resolution, making trial works unusable for direct commercial use in practice. The annual and monthly payment prices differ significantly (Professional annual payment is US$35/month vs monthly payment is US$59/month).

What Is This
Automatically converts long texts, such as blog posts, scripts, and transcripts, into short videos with accompanying materials and subtitles, and also converts long videos into short ones with automatic subtitles, focusing on content marketing video production without requiring editing experience.

No permanent free tier, only a 14-day free trial: 3 video projects, output with Pictory watermark, no credit card required; video length limit per clip is unclear (5 or 10 minutes). Paid plan Starter starts at US$25/month, billed annually

What Sets Us Apart
The quota is 3 times that of the Starter plan, the material library is 3.6 times larger, and AI credits are 10 times more, with an annual payment that is only US$10/month more expensive, making it the most cost-effective first-tier plan for bulk producers.
Best for: Marketing teams or agencies with 3 or more people
US$119 / mo (Annual subscription)
Annual payment equivalent to US$119/month (monthly payment US$199); for 3 people or more, 1,800 video minutes/month (21,600 minutes/year with annual payment), 100GB storage, 10 Brand Kits, and team collaboration workspace
It is essentially a multi-person version of Professional: 3 times the quota, and a shared workspace; for individual use or 1-2 person teams, buying Professional is sufficient.
Available for direct registration in Taiwan (web version, no apparent regional blocking). The interface is in English, with limited support for Chinese text in long text-to-video conversion (best results with English materials), and subtitles support multiple languages. The standard voice plan has unlimited usage but only supports 7 languages. ElevenLabs' advanced voice supports 29 languages but is metered by the minute. AI credits can be exchanged for images, AI videos, or avatar videos (1,200 credits with the Starter annual plan equivalent to 2,000 images or 12.5 minutes of video or 40 minutes of avatar video).
