Choose full-stack agents like Vid.AI or Video Auto when you need end-to-end videos with minimal input. Pick script-first tools such as CreatorHouse or ViralScript AI if you already have editing workflows or want to keep your own voice. Watch pricing closely—some charge flat low fees while others scale with usage or lock you into specific hosts. Test for export flexibility and whether the agent supports your target platforms before committing to monthly volume.
