What they are

Captions

Captions is a mobile-first AI video editor aimed at creators who produce talking-head content for social media. It auto-generates captions, removes filler words, corrects eye contact, and can clone your voice for overdubs. The app targets solo creators who want a post-production shortcut, though its desktop feature set is still catching up to its mobile counterpart.

Luma Dream Machine

Luma Dream Machine is an AI video generator that converts text prompts and reference images into short, realistic video clips. It is used by content creators, social media managers, and motion designers who need quick video assets without traditional production. The output quality is impressive for short clips, but generation time and clip length constraints make it a tool for ideation and social content rather than long-form production.
