Our take
Pick CapCut if short-form creators who already think in a timeline and want captions/TTS in the same app. Pick Kaiber if musicians and social editors who will drop a track and a folder of stills. Skip CapCut if people who need a prompt-to-video model (Runway, Kling AI) or a transcript-first cut (Descript).
