The real difference

Of the tools compared here, Submagic is the closest to Anteras. It does more with footage that is not you: B-roll and clips from longer videos. Anteras does more with the speaker: text and cards placed behind the person, a dimmed room, a cut-out.

When Submagic is the better choice

  • You want B-roll and stock clips added for you.
  • You cut short clips out of longer videos.

When Anteras is the better choice

  • You want to finish real videos before paying anything.
  • Your takes run past two minutes.
  • You want the speaker cut out for graphics behind them (text behind you).

What Anteras does not do

So you do not sign up for the wrong tool:

  • A timeline with tracks. You switch things on and off; you do not drag clips.
  • Cutting a long stream or podcast into clips.
  • B-roll, stock footage, avatars, dubbing or translation.
  • Posting or scheduling to Instagram, TikTok or YouTube.
  • A mobile app. It runs in the browser, on a phone too.
  • Square or landscape exports. It makes vertical 9:16 video.
