Captions
AI editing for talking-head video on iPhone
Captions edits the kind of video where somebody talks to the camera. It cuts the pauses, animates the subtitles and can generate the B-roll, music and sound effects that go around what you actually shot. The AI actor feature produces footage of a presenter from a script, either an invented one or a twin of you. Its pricing covers the iOS plans and the page says so rather than leaving you to find out.
Our note
This is the strongest of the phone-first AI editors and the least useful if you already own a desktop workflow. Treat the credit allowance rather than the monthly price as the real limit.

Wisecut
Cuts the silences and scores what is left
Wisecut removes silences and filler from a long recording, adds subtitles and lays background music under the result, which is most of a rough edit done before anybody opens a timeline. Autopilot runs the whole sequence unattended. Plans are metered in credits split between editor time and automated time, so the two ways of using it are priced apart. A talking-head recording is what this is built for and a multi-camera shoot is not.
