Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before getting started.
MotionCaption is a paid plugin with a free trial. The trial lasts 7 days, needs no credit card, and includes 50 AI credits so you can try the cloud AI tools. After that, buy MotionCaption once and keep the core features for life, or subscribe to Pro for cloud AI and stock media. Every purchase comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
Your projects and any styles you saved stay in your After Effects and Premiere files. To keep using the panel, buy MotionCaption (one-time) for core captioning, or subscribe to Pro for cloud AI and stock media.
Credits only pay for cloud AI features. The caption workflow itself is unlimited: presets, styles, animations, effects, editing, retiming, and local Whisper transcription all run with no credits on a one-time license. Cloud transcription is billed one credit per minute of audio, so a 10-minute video costs 10 credits and a full hour costs 60. Other AI features start at one credit and scale with how much you process. For example, AI highlight uses about one credit per 120 words. The panel always shows an estimate and asks you to confirm before any large spend. Stock search is included with Pro and uses zero AI credits. Pro includes 800 AI credits per month. Buy AI credit packs anytime you need more.
MotionCaption (one-time) comes with 150 AI credits, about 2.5 hours of cloud transcription or roughly 18 one-minute shorts with the full AI treatment. That grant is one time and does not renew each month. After it, top up with credit packs from $4.99 for 200 credits, or subscribe to Pro for 800 credits a month. The rest of the plugin needs no credits at all: offline Whisper transcription, every caption preset, styles, animations, effects, and retiming stay unlimited for life. Stock media search is the one extra that needs Pro.
14-day money-back guarantee. Send a message through the contact form within 14 days of purchase and we'll refund you in full. Want to confirm fit first? Start the free trial, no card needed.
