How free access works

AI captions, credits, and exports  |  Updated October 23, 2026

Try before signing up

Eligible devices can try one AI caption generation as a guest, without an account or payment card. This guest try is separate from account welcome credits. Device verification prevents repeat guest claims.

Get 22 welcome credits

Sign in with Apple, or sign in with Google and link your Apple ID, to claim 22 welcome credits if eligible. This is a one-time allowance with no expiry and does not refresh daily. Recreating an account does not renew eligibility.

Generate and reroll

Free AI captions support all nine moods, templates and effects, with videos up to 90 seconds. Generation costs one credit per started minute: up to 60 seconds costs one credit; over 60 and up to 90 seconds costs two. Free accounts have no included free rerolls; regenerating uses more credits. The App shows the required credits before generation.

Save, copy, and export

You can save or share a captioned video on the free tier. AI captions generated with guest or welcome credits export with the SassCam watermark. Generations funded by subscription or purchased credits export without that watermark; upgrading does not retroactively change the credit source of an existing generation.

Copying AI caption text requires Starter or higher, or eligible credit-pack access. Exporting AI captions as an SRT subtitle file requires Pro or Max. Free AI exports include an end card; subscription plans allow it to be turned off. Credit-pack access alone does not unlock the end-card toggle or SRT export.

When payment is needed

No purchase is needed to use an eligible guest try or welcome credits. When the guest try is used, sign in to continue. When your account cannot cover the next generation, the App offers a subscription or an eligible credit pack. Locked copy and SRT controls also offer an upgrade. Standalone pack availability depends on your App Store region; some regions require an active subscription. Review the local price and included benefits before confirming any purchase.

Voice subtitles are separate

Voice subtitles transcribe speech on your device and do not use AI-caption credits or require a subscription. Availability depends on the device, language and speech model; some models need a download. Voice-subtitle text copying and SRT export are free. Free-tier video exports still include branding.
