What Arcads Does Well
- A library of 1,000+ AI actors to pick from, or you can create your own AI avatar.7
- Talking actors speak 74 languages with accents, and translating a video offers 176 language and accent options.2
- Every plan includes an MCP connection and all models up to 4K; Pro and above add the public API, team seats and custom actors.3
- A free 72-hour trial with 1,000 credits and every feature unlocked.8
The Catches
- No dollar prices are on a public page: arcads.ai/pricing shows Page Not Found, and the help centre says current prices are on the pricing page in the app.4 3
- Starter and Creator stop at the monthly credit limit and their credits reset each cycle; Pro and above are billed for extra usage. Cancelling takes effect at the end of the billing cycle and unused credits are lost.6 2
- Credits are spent per generation by model, length and resolution: a talking-actor video is counted per minute and per actor, rounded up, in one help article, while the pricing article lists 800 credits for an Arcads 1.0 video of up to 2 minutes.5 3
- The 3-day trial needs a card and charges the Starter plan automatically after 72 hours unless you cancel; refund requests must come within 30 days of the charge.8 9
Who Arcads suits
Pick Arcads if you want AI actors talking to camera in UGC-style ads, in many languages, and you are happy to pay by the credit rather than by the video.
