CaptionBolt's limits explain most departures. The free plan caps videos at 3 minutes and 200 MB and stamps a watermark, every plan has a monthly processing-minute cap, Free and Starter run one job at a time, and API access is reserved for Max.
Three alternatives appear in our catalog. Descript has a free tier and its Hobbyist plan is $16 per editor per month billed annually, with 1080p watermark-free export, 600 media minutes and filler-word removal; it edits through the transcript. Runway has a free tier and Standard at $15 per month, with 625 credits that do not roll over and 4K upscaling, aimed at generating video rather than captioning. Canva offers a free tier and Pro for $144 per year, with print-ready export and a content planner for scheduling posts around your clips.
