Pros and cons
AiAdGen
- First 5-second Standard video is free with no card required, letting buyers test real output quality before committing.
- Credit packs never expire, so infrequent users pay only for what they use without a recurring subscription draining their account.
- Annual plans include a commercial license and watermark removal at a flat one-time price ($174 Creator, $594 Agency), which suits sellers running seasonal campaigns.
- All credit pack tiers export with a watermark regardless of pack size, so even the $89 Scale pack (3,000 credits) cannot produce a clean commercial asset without upgrading to an annual plan.
- Output is measured in seconds of video rather than number of finished ads, and the Creator plan's 10,800 credits yield roughly 1,080 seconds of Standard video total for the year, which is a hard ceiling that Runway's subscription model does not impose in the same way.
- No mobile app, no API access mentioned on the pricing page, and no multi-scene or timeline editing, making AiAdGen unsuitable for anything beyond short single-shot product clips.
HeyGen
- User-friendly interface for quick video creation
- Strong focus on marketing and sales applications
- Ability to produce localized content efficiently
- Limited customization options for avatars
- Translation quality varies across languages
- Freemium model may restrict advanced features
Our verdict
AiAdGen verdict
AiAdGen is a focused tool for e-commerce sellers and solo marketers who need a fast path from product photo to publishable video ad, without touching a timeline editor. Credit packs never expire but carry watermarks unless you subscribe, and the yearly subscription cost ($174 for Creator, $594 for Agency) buys you seconds of video rather than unlimited output, which makes the math tight compared to Runway's broader monthly plans. If you need avatar-led videos, multi-scene editing, or anything beyond short product clips, this tool will hit its ceiling fast.
