Cueits vs Submagic

A short-form video editor built around captions. Auto-captions in dozens of languages, styled caption templates, a b-roll and stock library, text-based trimming, AI hook titles and a brand kit on the higher tiers.

• Starter — $19/month, or $12/month billed yearly. 15 videos a month, 2 minutes maximum per video, 1080p at 30fps, no watermark.
• Pro — $39/month, or $23/month billed yearly. 40 videos a month, 5 minutes maximum, 1080p at 30fps.
• Business — $69/month, or $41/month billed yearly. 100 videos a month, 30 minutes maximum, 4K at 60fps.

• It is a fuller editor. Text-based trimming, removing bad takes and cleaning audio are real editing jobs that Cueits does not do at all.
• A stock b-roll and audio library is included, so a video that needs footage you do not have is a solved problem there and an unsolved one here.
• Caption translation is offered. Cueits captions only in the language that was spoken.
• Its video allowance is counted in videos rather than minutes, which is simpler to reason about if your clips are all a similar length.

• The panel is composed, not chosen. Cueits reads the transcript, works out what each stretch of speech is claiming, and draws the matching element from a catalogue of 129 — a chart for a figure, a comparison for a trade-off, a sequence for a process. Nothing is typed into a template.
• Reveals are anchored to words, not beats. Both products transcribe at word level; Cueits uses that timing to decide when each part of the graphic arrives, so a statistic appears on the syllable you say it.
• The graphic gets its own half of the frame. In portrait the panel owns the top 55 per cent rather than floating over the speaker, which is what lets it carry a readable chart rather than a caption-sized badge.
• Cueits also does word-level animated captions, in thirty-seven styles, with restyling free until you export.

Pick Submagic if what you need is a short-form editor: captions with a large template library, stock b-roll, trimming, and translation. It does more of the editing job than Cueits does.

Pick Cueits if your video makes an argument and the missing layer is the graphic that carries it. Nothing in Submagic composes a chart from your transcript.

Cueits’ own prices and limits are on the pricing page, and the free plan needs no card.

Can I use both?

Yes, and for some workflows that is the sensible answer: cut and clean the video elsewhere, then bring the finished clip to Cueits for the panel.

Does Cueits do b-roll?

No. Cueits draws graphics, it does not source footage. There is no stock library.

Which is cheaper?

They are metered differently, so it depends on your clips. Submagic's Starter is $19 a month for 15 videos of up to 2 minutes; Cueits' Starter is $19 a month for 1,000 credits, which is about 33 minutes of animation or 50 minutes of captions.
