Creatify vs Poolday (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Creatify if

• Fits if you need lots of short UGC-style video ads without hiring creators
• Works for Amazon or Shopify sellers who want a video made from the product page

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you're on Standard: 55 credits, one generation at a time and 2-minute videos
• Skip it if you only want reports on ads you already run
• Not for you if you like to stockpile credits, as they expire after 2 months
• Pricey if you want rival tracking or Ad Clone, which start on Pro at $38 a month billed annually
• Watch out: the API is a separate subscription at $99 or $299 a month, and free exports carry a watermark

Pick Poolday if

• Fits if you make many marketing videos and have the budget for credits
• Makes sense if you want one agent across brand, edits and variations

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you are small, at $1,250 a month with the same amount spent as credits
• Skip it if you want to try first, since there is no free plan or trial
• Watch out: extra credits cost more per credit on the lower plans
• Watch out: bonus credits for 6 or 12 month terms were not stated
• Not for you if you want to buy without a call, as every plan starts with one

Creatify

• Credits expire after 2 months; the cost of each video depends on the model, length and resolution.
• Competitor tracking, Ad Clone and the ad agent start on Pro; Standard allows one generation at a time and 2-minute videos.
• The API is a separate subscription: $99 a month for 500 API credits or $299 for 2,000.
• Studio, a done-for-you creative service of 25 to 100+ videos a month, is priced through sales.

Poolday

• The entry price is $1,250 a month, and the same amount is spent as credits; extra credits cost more per credit on lower plans.
• Month-to-month billing is available, and 6 or 12 month commitments earn bonus credits; the amount of bonus credits was not stated.
• Business lists a starting price of $5,000, and a custom monthly amount between two plans can be set on the page.
• Every plan starts with a call to configure the agent; there is no self-serve free plan or trial on the pricing page.
