Arcads vs EzUGC

Two fact sheets from our own research, side by side — pricing, platforms, API access and status re-checked by us rather than quoted from the vendors. EzUGC publishes a starting price ($99); Arcads does not. Both ship a public API.

What our research says

Arcads

For paid-social teams that need forty variants of the same hook, Arcads is built for exactly that: a large licensed actor roster, script-to-video in one pass and localisation baked in. The catch is total pricing opacity — nothing on the public site tells you what a video costs until you have an account, and the API needs a sales call.

Pros

  • Over a thousand AI actors plus custom avatar creation
  • Captions, translation and background handling included in the render
  • Workflow canvas designed around team-based variant testing
  • Vendor identity is disclosed plainly: FRESHR SAS, registered in Rouen, France

Cons

  • No published pricing anywhere on the public site
  • API is locked to a customised plan arranged by phone
  • Terms restrict service to professional clients, so consumers are excluded

EzUGC

EzUGC is built specifically for the script-to-ad-video loop that performance marketers run every week, with enough AI actors and model choice to vary creative without a shoot. The subscription caps by video count rather than by seat, so cost scales predictably with output. The catch is there's no free tier to test quality first, and the jump from the $399 self-serve tier to the $2,000 done-for-you service is steep if a team outgrows self-serve but isn't ready for full-service.

Pros

  • 300+ selectable AI actors for scripted delivery
  • choice of underlying video model per generation, including Sora 2 and Veo
  • produces matching static ad images from the same script
  • Pro tier adds API access for pipeline integration

Cons

  • no free tier or trial mentioned on the pricing page
  • video counts are capped per plan, so heavy testing pushes teams to the $399 tier fast
  • the operating company's country of registration isn't disclosed
