CapCut Pricing, Plans & Alternatives (2026)

Overview

CapCut is a video editor for desktop, web and mobile oriented to short-form social video, with templates, effects and a growing set of AI generation features. Its pricing page lists Free, Pro, Ultra and Teams plans^[6].

The free plan includes free templates and basic editing tools. Pro adds premium templates and features, 1 TB of storage and 1,200 monthly AI credits, which pay for AI features including video generation with the Seedance models; Ultra raises the allowance to 8,645 monthly credits and adds exclusive AI features; Teams provides Pro features per seat with a brand kit^[6]. New users can start a seven-day free trial of Pro without a credit card, subject to availability^[6].

CapCut is efficient for creators producing TikTok, Reels and Shorts content, but it is less suited to long-form or broadcast work than Premiere or Resolve. The pricing page states that displayed prices are for reference only and that final pricing, taxes and offers appear after sign-in, and per-second charges for AI video generation can add to costs^[6].
