74/89
Other AI image and video generators it is graded above

It stands best on value for money (B, above 63 of 89) and worst on free plan and trial (C, above 28).

Each grade against the category
Every bar is all 90 AI image and video generators we grade, cut by the letter each got. Pixelcut’s own letter is outlined.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Pixelcut you would be making an image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 74 of the 89 other AI image and video generators we grade. It costs $96 a year.
What you could not
- An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
- Ad images and videos made to each network's sizes.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- An API that other software can build on.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Pixelcut’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
