by Zapier (21 minute read)

From smart video editing software to generative text-to-video, the team at Zapier reviews 11 tools that will help you run your own YouTube channel, create more engaging content for social media, and repurpose content to keep your online channels fresh.
Most of my favorites are reviewed in this guide. I would also add Kling, a popular new text-to-video app that creates amazing animations from very little information (it's free for now, too).
🤖 Tools! *promoted (disclaimer)
This week: AI for Video Generation
Arguably the best all-in-one AI video generation and editing platform for creators. The URL-to-ad generator is a huge time-saver that works suprisingly well. Best features include the intuitive video editor, text-to-video generation, video-to-shorts, team collaboration, and stock media. At $0.80 per minute of video, it's more expensive than lesser tools - but worth it. Millions of users.
Kling AI (Free)One of the highest-quality text-to-video generators available today - and it's FREE (for now). Also offers image generation, audio generation, and special effects.
Invideo AI * (Free trial to $100/mo)The simplest way to generate high-quality narrated videos directly from text. Just enter a video concept or script, and InVideo automatically generates a video complete with music, text, voiceover, and media. Great value at $0.50 per minute of video. A few hallucinations & script issues will need cleaning up, but InVideo will save you a lot of time. No support for avatars, however.
Runway (Free trial to $100/mo)A leading AI-powered creative suite for video editing, visual effects, and content creation. This is the best brand-safe platform for generating & editing high-quality AI videos for any need. But it only creates visual media - narration, avatars, voiceovers, and text are not supported.
Opus Clip (Free trial to $30/mo)AI-powered video repurposing tool that turns long-form content into short viral clips for social media. An excellent and affordable way to create viral shorts and post them to social media. We asked it to extract the most viral moments from a recent 1-hour Elon Musk interview, and the shorts were well done. The price is hard to beat, too, at less than $0.10 per minute of video. Over 6 million creators.
Fliki * (Free trial to $100/mo)AI-powered text-to-video platform that converts product listings, blog posts and scripts into narrated videos up to 15 mins long for a wide range of uses. The URL-to-video creates high-quality narrated shorts from product listings and blog posts. Prompt-to-video is super easy, but you may need to edit the AI's media selections. We recommend the Premium plan, which includes support for avatars, AI video, and more. Outstanding value at less than $0.16 per minute of video.
Creatify AI * (Free trial to $200/mo)One of the easiest ways to create short-form videos from a script, URL, or a prompt. Super-high-quality voiceovers and avatars set this one apart. Easy-to-follow video generation process plus a video editor with lots of tweaking options. OK value at $1 per minute of video, but clips are limited to 2 minutes or less.
