  1. 1. HeyGen

    HeyGen goes further than Creatify on presenter video: its free plan includes one custom avatar and over 500 ready-made presenters, it lip-syncs translated speech in your own voice across 175+ languages and dialects, and Pro allows videos up to 30 minutes. It is built for presenter videos rather than ad research and launch. Reviewers say credit use is hard to track and every small change means paying for a whole new video.

  2. 2. Captions

    If AI actors look fake to your audience, Captions starts from real footage: it cuts scenes, adds B-roll and styled captions, fixes eye contact and removes pauses and filler words. Its Max plan adds digital twins and custom AI actors with 500 credits per month. Its Trustpilot rating is low, with reviewers calling the credit system misleading and reporting glitches, deleted projects and charges on an account shown as free.

    1.7 on Trustpilot (91 ratings), checked October 2026

  3. 3. Omneky

    Omneky builds a brand system from your website, makes static image ads in 14 aspect ratios plus commercials of 10 to 30 seconds and avatar videos, launches on nine channels and ranks every ad by the metric you choose. Unlike Creatify, its pricing page labels monthly and yearly prices clearly. There is no free plan: Lite, Standard and Pro start with a 7-day trial that turns into a paid subscription automatically.

  4. 4. Pencil

    Pencil generates static and video ads from your brand kit and performance data, auto resizes ads into any format, and launches and tracks ads on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Google Display, DV360 and LinkedIn from the Core plan. You can create six ads free in a guided trial, but there is no ongoing free plan. Reviewers say output depends on the quality of your own images and video, videos are often not quite ad ready, and downloads can freeze.

  5. 5. The Brief

    The Brief, formerly Creatopy, is a full ad design editor with 5,000+ templates, timeline animation, HTML5 display ad export and its own ad serving on 25+ networks, so it covers static and display ads that Creatify does not focus on. It is a design tool first, without an AI actor library. Reviewers on G2 say the interface sometimes crashes and the differences between plans are confusing.

    4.6 on G2 (37 ratings), checked October 2026

  6. 6. Infinall AI

    Infinall AI makes images and motion videos on both plans and, on Pro, videos up to 180 seconds with an avatar built from your own face and voice. You see the exact price before paid work runs, failed work is not charged, and cancelling Pro costs nothing. It is not an AI actor specialist: there is no stock presenter library, and Video mode and avatars are Pro only.

How we picked these Creatify alternatives

We started from the reasons people give for leaving Creatify in public reviews: cancelling and refunds, billing that defaults to annual, and AI actors whose lip sync does not look real. Then we looked at tools in our verified list that do the same job, making ads with AI, or solve it another way, such as presenter video, editing real footage, or design-led ad production.

For each tool we used only its own pricing page and public review pages, checked in October 2026. Prices change often, so open each pricing link before you buy. Creatify also sells a done-for-you Studio service; we did not find a verified agency-style service to compare it with, so this list covers software only.

Quick comparison by need

  • You want more realistic presenters or videos in many languages: HeyGen, with over 500 ready-made presenters and lip-synced translation.
  • Your audience does not trust AI actors and you can film yourself: Captions, which edits your own talking-head footage.
  • You want an AI ad tool with clear monthly and yearly prices and launch on many channels: Omneky.
  • You want ads built from your existing brand assets and results: Pencil.
  • You need many sizes, display ads and animation: The Brief.
  • You need a short video plus the images, voiceover and post copy around it, from your saved brand, and a free plan to start: Infinall AI. Ad Spy also shows the ads a competitor is running on Meta, Google and LinkedIn, and searches cost 0 credits today.

Pricing notes

Creatify's pricing page lists a Free plan with 10 credits a month, enough for up to 2 video ads or 20 image ads, with a watermark on exports. Paid plans show two monthly amounts each: Standard $15 or $10, Max $95 or $66, Business $195 or $136, and $55 or $38 for the plan called Pro. The pricing page does not say which amount is monthly billing and which is annual billing, so check the Creatify pricing page before you pay. Enterprise is custom, and the Studio service has no listed price.

Most alternatives also sell credits or generations, and each tool counts them differently, so compare what one finished ad costs rather than the number of credits. Omneky and Pencil label monthly and yearly billing on their pricing pages. The Brief shows prices billed annually.

Infinall AI keeps it simple: one credit is one US cent. Free gives 1,000 credits every month with no card. Pro gives 3,000 credits a month for $10 for the first month, then $30 a month or $299 a year. In India, Pro is Rs 999 for the first month, then Rs 2,899 a month or Rs 33,999 a year. Checkout shows the final charge before you pay, and cancelling Pro costs nothing.

When to stay with Creatify

Creatify is still a strong choice for some teams, and its Trustpilot rating is 4.4 from 329 reviews. Stay with it if:

  • Video ads with AI actors are your main output. Its Pro plan lists 1,500 AI actors plus 3 custom avatars.
  • You want ads made from a product URL, with your logo, colors, fonts and assets kept in every ad.
  • You use its talking-video tool, which turns a single photo and one audio clip into a talking video.
  • You need team scale: Business includes 10 seats and 10 brand spaces, and Enterprise offers unlimited seats and white-label support.
  • You want people to make the ads: the Studio service has creative experts design each ad with a 48-hour turnaround.

If your problem is billing rather than features, check which billing period you picked before you switch completely.
