AI video software in India, compared by price in ₹ (November 2026)

हिंदी में पढ़ें

We compare 8 AI video tools that Indian teams use, ranked by our open score (how the score works; paying us never changes it). CapCut scores highest here, 60 out of 100. For 10 people, the lowest monthly price we could work out from a vendor's page is ₹1,144 (Runway AI, Standard).

Prices checked 26 Oct 2026 or later; each price shows its own date. Prices are the vendor's list price before GST, for 10 people a month, at ₹95.3 per US dollar where the vendor prices in dollars. Ranked by our open score — how it works. Ties go to the tool with more checks known, then A to Z. No position here is for sale.

How to choose

  1. Work out the cost for your team, not the headline price. For 10 people, the plans we could price run from ₹1,144 a month (Runway AI) to ₹2,764 a month (HeyGen). All 3 are flat prices, so a bigger team pays the same. Try other team sizes in the seat calculator.
  2. Check the currency. 5 of 8 are priced in dollars on the vendor's page. The rupee figure here is converted at our rate of ₹95.3 per dollar; your bank's rate and card fee change what you pay.
  3. Check India fit before you sign. We have read that 1 of 8 bill in rupees, 0 give a GST invoice and 0 keep data in India. "Not checked" means we have not read it, not that the answer is no.
  4. Start on a free plan where there is one. 5 of 8 list a free plan, so you can try them with your own data before paying.
  5. Check how each one charges. 3 of 8 have no monthly plan price we could read: some charge per transaction or per use, some only by quote. Their tool pages say which.

Something wrong or out of date? Tell us and we re-check the vendor's page.
