## Worked example: 20 Reels

Say you post 20 Reels a month, each under 2 minutes.

- Submagic Starter covers 15 videos (45 credits). You need Pro, which covers 40 videos (120 credits).
- Submagic Pro is $39 a month, or $23 billed yearly: $23 x 12 = $276 a year.
- ZapCap Starter covers 15 videos, so you need Pro. It covers 50 videos at $16 a month shown ($192 a year, billed annually).

ZapCap's page does not say outright whether $16 is the monthly or the yearly rate. Prices checked 3 Nov 2026.

## How to choose

1. Count your videos a month. Credit caps decide the plan.
2. Test your language. Hindi lists differ between tools.
3. Export one video from each free plan or trial and look for a watermark.
4. Read [ZapCap alternatives](/alternatives/zapcap-alternatives) and [OpusClip alternatives](/alternatives/opus-clip-alternatives), or see [Captions alternatives](/alternatives/captions-alternatives).
