AI video generation tools are evolving fast, giving creators, marketers, and filmmakers powerful ways to produce high-quality content without traditional production overhead.
As of July 2025, these 11 tools stand out for their innovation, performance, and affordability across use cases like social media, storytelling, and commercial video.
1. ImagineArt AI Video Generator
ImagineArt AI Video Generator is their flagship video tool that combines text-to-video and image-to-video workflows, enabling users to transform prompts or uploaded visuals into highly polished content for social media, ads, or storytelling.
Creators can layer voiceovers, background music, and animations with ease. It features smart style presets and timeline control, making it ideal for quick production.
Pricing is $27/month for monthly billing, with a 15% discount if billed quarterly, effectively reducing the cost to about $23/month. For power users, there’s an “Unlimited” tier at around $83/month, offering full access to video tools, priority generation, and high concurrency.
2. Imagine Shorts
A dedicated sibling product by ImagineArt, Imagine Shorts is an AI Short Video Generator that creates vertical, faceless short videos optimized for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. Users can simply paste a script or prompt, and the tool automatically generates rhythmic, engaging short clips complete with voiceovers and transitions.
Imagine Shorts uses a credit-based pricing model, with each 30-second video typically costing 2,100–2,125 credits, depending on the narration type. Script generation and stock footage are free. Visual animation uses 2,100 credits, while narration adds 5 credits for basic or 25 for premium voices.
The Unlimited Plan is priced at $100/month, billed quarterly ($300 every 3 months), and includes 120,000 credits per quarter—enough for about 40 shorts per month. This brings the average cost to just $2.50 per fully produced short, making it one of the most affordable options for high-quality, scalable video content.
3. Google Veo 3 (Gemini App)
The latest version of DeepMind’s Veo model, rolling out through the Gemini app as of May 20, 2025, can produce eight-second clips at 720p with synchronized AI-generated speech, environmental sounds, and actions triggered from both text and image inputs.
It’s included with Google’s AI Ultra subscription at $249.99/month, though a three-month trial through Google Cloud is available. iOS and Android support are rolling out mid-July.
4. Marey by Moonvalley
Marey is uniquely trained only on licensed footage to avoid copyright issues, offering high-quality 1080p output with precise control over camera moves, object positioning, and lighting.
Pricing is based on a credit system: each credit renders about five seconds of 24 FPS footage, with scenes averaging $1–$2 per render—making it attractive for indie filmmakers and studios working scene-by-scene.
5. Synthesia
Best-known for avatar-led voiceover videos, Synthesia offers over 230 digital presenters covering 140 languages, with options for custom branding, lip-syncing, and script editing.

Launched in December 2024, it’s available through ChatGPT Plus and Pro, enabling storyboard-style video generation and clip extension, though not as much camera control as some competitors. Pricing spans $20/month for Plus, up to $200/month for Pro, with higher tiers granting longer clips and priority.
