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.

Pixlr

Pixlr is a web and mobile photo editor that covers everything from quick retouches to layered compositions, running entirely in the browser with no download required. It attracts social media creators, bloggers, and small-business owners who need Photoshop-adjacent tools without the Adobe subscription cost. The free tier is functional but ad-supported and now leans heavily on AI features that push users toward paid plans. At $1.99 per month the entry plan is genuinely affordable, though the feature set per tier can feel inconsistently gated.
