Captions (Mirage)

Captions, built by New York AI lab Mirage, is an AI video creation and editing platform whose Mirage model generates lifelike UGC-style actors and talking videos from a script or audio. It serves creators, small businesses, ecommerce brands, and agencies that need social ad content at scale, and its differentiator is a proprietary foundation model for UGC video (Mirage Studio) rather than licensed stock avatars, plus a full AI editor with captions in 100+ languages, dubbing, B-roll, and eye-contact correction.

1. 01

   Mirage Studio AI actors

   Generates lifelike UGC-style talking actors from a script or audio using Mirage, a proprietary foundation model for UGC video.

2. 02

   AI digital twins

   Max plan and above lets you create an AI twin of yourself from your own footage for scaled video output.

3. 03

   AI Edit

   Automatically cuts scenes, layers B-roll, and adds transitions, music, and effects in multiple editing styles.

4. 04

   Captions in 100+ languages

   Auto-generates styled, animated captions with translation into more than 100 languages.

5. 05

   AI dubbing and voice tools

   Dubs videos into dozens of languages and offers denoising, filler-word removal, and audio enhancement.

6. 06

   Eye-contact correction

   AI adjusts the speaker's gaze so they appear to look at the camera even when reading a script.

7. 07

   Chat-based editing

   Edit videos by typing natural-language prompts instead of using a timeline.

8. 08

   Batch clip creation

   Turns long recordings into multiple short social-ready clips in one pass.

• Ecommerce brands and performance marketers who need high volumes of UGC-style ad variations without hiring creators
• Solo creators and small businesses turning talking-head or podcast footage into captioned social clips
• Founders and marketers who want an AI twin to appear in videos without repeated filming
• Agencies producing multilingual versions of client videos via dubbing and translated captions

Look elsewhere if

• Brands that need authentic human creators with real product-in-hand footage (a marketplace like Billo or Insense fits better)
• Teams needing enterprise avatar governance, SOC2-heavy workflows, and API-first generation at scale (Synthesia or HeyGen are more established there)
• Anyone wanting predictable flat-rate pricing; the credit system makes heavy usage costs hard to forecast

as of 2026-09View official pricing(opens in a new tab)

Verified against captions.ai/pricing on 2026-09-02: the public pricing page lists only Free, Max ($24.99), Scale ($69.99/$139.99/$279.99), and Enterprise — the $9.99 Basic plan appears only in help docs (formerly 'Pro', likely in-app/legacy), so Max is the effective web starting price. Credit-based system: every AI generation consumes credits, and users report credits depleting fast, including on failed/glitched generations. Max is listed at $24.99/mo on the pricing page but $29.99/mo in help docs (likely annual vs monthly billing). A $4.99 Lite plan exists on Android only and does not carry to desktop/iOS. Monthly plans are non-refundable; cancel at least 24 hours before renewal. Credits roll over up to 3x the monthly allowance. Free trial availability is not stated on the pricing page (null).
