What to watch out for
The free version is a starting point, and the more advanced features sit behind the Pro plan, which the listing prices at about HKD 22.75 per month with an annual discount, so costs can add up over time. Because so much is template-driven, your videos can end up looking similar to other people's, so add your own content to stand out. The AI tools speed things up but do not replace good source material, and the final quality still depends on the images and video you bring in. Try the free version and the trial before committing to a paid plan. For best results, start with a small test file and review the output carefully before working on anything important.
