CartoonMakerAI vs Revid.ai

Revid's own pages list different plan line-ups (a Hobby and an Elite plan appear in some places but not others), so we only list the two plans that match everywhere. Generated video costs 15–100 credits per 5 seconds depending on quality tier (250 per 5 s for Seedance at 1080p). Revid estimates a typical 30-second video with moving images and voice at 40–80 credits. Plan credits do not roll over.
Strengths and trade-offs
Where each one wins.
Revid.ai is stronger at
Character training
You can train a custom character and reuse up to several characters per video, which helps a recurring series.
Publishing and API
Scheduled posting to TikTok, YouTube and Instagram, plus API, MCP and CLI access for automation.
For cartoon creators, Revid.ai is weaker at
Hard to predict cost
Credits are metered per second and per model. A 30-second fully generated clip on a premium model can cost several hundred credits.
No free plan
You can sign up for free credits, but any export requires a paid subscription starting at $39/mo.
Short-form first
The workflow is built around shorts and viral remixes, not long story episodes.
CartoonMakerAI's own limits
No free video
The free plan is for testing styles with images. Video starts on Starter, so you cannot try a full video without paying.
No narration yet
There is no built-in voiceover or text-to-speech. Faceless channels that rely on a narrator add the voice track in an editor afterwards.
Prompt-driven, not frame-by-frame
You direct each video through the brief and style, not a timeline. If you need to place a character's hand at an exact frame, an animation editor gives you more control.
Long videos cost real credits
Video is 2 credits per second. A 10-minute story is 1,200 credits, more than any single monthly plan includes, so long formats need top-ups.
