The verdict
Which one should you pick?
Artlist
Pick it for
- Editors who need one licence for music, SFX and b-roll across many client projects
- YouTube creators and content studios that publish often and want unlimited audio
- Agencies and production companies using team seats with centralized licensing
Stands out
- One subscription covers stock music, 90,000+ SFX, stock footage and templates, plus an AI toolkit, under one commercial licence
- Unlimited stock downloads on paid plans with no per-track or per-clip licensing negotiation
Watch out
- AI allowances change often: included AI video counts were halved on lower tiers in October 2026
- Music selection is broad rather than specialist; limited high-end orchestral and foley depth
InVideo AI
Pick it for
- Short social, ad and explainer videos built from generated clips, stock and talking-head footage
- Cutting talking-head, podcast and multicam recordings: silences, filler, angle switching and chapters
- Editors who want an AI first pass and then finish in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve
Stands out
- The AI works on a real multitrack timeline, and every edit it makes can be adjusted by hand afterwards.
- Exports an editable project to Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve with cuts and layers intact, so the AI cut can move into a finishing workflow.
Watch out
- Credits are per seat and do not roll over to the next month
- Seedance 2.0 at 4K and Seedance 2.5 are only on Plus and Max; Starter gets Seedance 2.0 Fast and Mini
Adobe Premiere Pro
Pick it for
- Broadcast and streaming episode editing with Lumetri and Essential Sound delivery
- Agency and corporate work that needs Creative Cloud handoffs (After Effects, Audition, Frame.io)
- Multicam documentary and event edits where Multicam auto-sync saves hours
Stands out
- Only mainstream NLE where Firefly, Veo, Kling and Luma generation sits inside the timeline, with the sequence as reference for the new clip
- Generative Extend works on the broadest source range in the category (360p to 4K UHD, interlaced and non-square pixels included)
Watch out
- Subscription only, and the price moves: the single app is $22.99/mo on an annual plan with a first-year promo for new users, while the All Apps tier is $69.99 list
- Generated clips add credit cost and depend on partner-model availability by region and plan
Runway
Pick it for
- Previs and shot tests with Gen-4.5 before committing to a shoot
- Fixing finished footage with Aleph 2.0, such as swapping backgrounds or wardrobe across a clip
- Agency ad and campaign work using Agent, Brand Kits and Projects
Stands out
- Gen-4.5 and Aleph 2.0 sit in one credit pool with third-party models such as Kling 3.0, Seedance 2.5, Wan 3.0 and Nano Banana Pro, so you can compare models without separate subscriptions.
- Aleph 2.0 edits existing footage rather than generating new clips, which keeps the rest of a shot stable.
Watch out
- Credits burn fast: about 12 credits per second for Gen-4.5 and about 28 for Aleph 2.0
- Single generations run about 10 seconds, so longer scenes need stitching
