MakeThisVid generates original AI-synthesized video clips from text prompts or photos — 6-second 720p or 8-second 1080p, audio included, commercial licensed, no watermark. VEED.IO is primarily a browser-based video editor with AI features layered on top, including subtitles, voiceover, translation, and an AI video generator powered by multiple models. They overlap in AI video generation but differ significantly in workflow and primary purpose.

MakeThisVid vs VEED.IO: AI Scene Generation vs Browser Video Editor

By MakeThisVid Editorial Updated Methodology

VEED.IO started as a browser video editor — upload footage, add subtitles, trim clips, generate AI voiceovers — and has since added AI video generation as a feature within that broader toolkit. MakeThisVid is the opposite: AI video generation from a prompt is the entire product, not a feature inside an editor. If your workflow is primarily editing existing footage with AI-assisted enhancements (auto-subtitles, translation, voiceover), VEED.IO is built for that. If your workflow is generating original short video ads from a prompt or product photo — with no editing interface to navigate — MakeThisVid is the more direct path. Here's an honest comparison of how they stack up.

How to Use MakeThisVid

From prompt to downloadable MP4, ready to deploy.

  1. Core product positioning

    VEED.IO is a browser video editor with AI features — editing is the primary workflow, generation is one of many features. MakeThisVid is a dedicated AI video generator — there's no editing interface, just prompt-to-video generation.

  2. AI video generation quality

    MakeThisVid synthesizes original footage from your prompt. VEED.IO's AI video generator also creates AI-generated clips using a selection of AI models, and integrates generation directly into its editing workflow so you can refine the result immediately after generating.

  3. Pricing comparison

    MakeThisVid: Lite ($19.99/mo, 10 credits), Standard ($49.99/mo, 30 credits), Pro ($79.99/mo, 60 credits). One-time packs start at $2.99. VEED.IO offers a free tier with watermarked exports and limited features; paid plans remove the watermark and unlock higher resolution and more AI tools. MakeThisVid has no free tier — all renders require credits.

  4. Audio handling

    MakeThisVid always includes AI-generated audio in every render — no extra step, no upgrade required. VEED.IO supports AI voiceover generation, auto-generated captions, and music, with more granular control over the audio track — including the ability to remove or replace audio separately.

  5. Post-generation editing

    After MakeThisVid generates a clip, the only option is download or regenerate. VEED.IO lets you edit generated video directly in the browser: add text overlays, captions, branding, music, subtitles. If you need to customize the video after generation, VEED.IO's editor adds that capability.

Who Uses MakeThisVid for This

MakeThisVid for pure AI-generated ad creation

No footage to upload, no editor to navigate. Describe the scene, generate, download, upload to your ad platform. Optimized for speed when you need short AI video ads produced at volume.

VEED.IO for editing-heavy workflows

If you're uploading existing footage and need AI-assisted subtitles, auto-translation, voiceover, and a clip editor in one browser tool, VEED.IO's editing suite is comprehensive.

VEED.IO when captioning and accessibility matter

VEED.IO's auto-subtitle generation and translation features are mature and widely used for social media content accessibility. MakeThisVid does not generate captions or text overlays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, VEED.IO has an AI video generator that supports multiple AI models and produces clips of varying lengths depending on the model selected. Both tools can generate AI video from text. The workflows differ: MakeThisVid is generation-only; VEED.IO integrates generation into a broader editor.
No. MakeThisVid is a pure generation tool — there's no editing interface. If you need subtitles or captions on the output, you'd need to add them after downloading in a separate tool.
VEED.IO has a free tier that lets you try the platform without payment, but free exports include a VEED watermark and are limited to 720p. MakeThisVid has no free tier — all renders require credits. Failed renders refund automatically.
MakeThisVid's commercial use license, 6-second format, audio-included output, and no-watermark delivery make it purpose-built for social ad placements. VEED.IO can produce ad-ready video too, especially when you want to add captions or text overlays to the generated clip, though that requires a paid plan for watermark-free export.
MakeThisVid's photo-to-video mode animates a product photo into a 6-second 720p or 8-second 1080p AI video with motion. VEED.IO also supports image-to-video generation, letting you animate still images through its AI model selection. Both tools support this workflow; they differ in how the result integrates into the rest of the editing process.
MakeThisVid renders in 45–90 seconds for a finished MP4. VEED.IO's AI video generation time varies by model and clip length. Both are browser-based tools that don't require local processing.
VEED.IO's free tier exports carry a watermark, making them unsuitable for commercial distribution. For commercial use rights on VEED.IO, check their current terms of service — licensing terms vary by plan. MakeThisVid includes commercial use on every paid plan and credit pack — no separate licensing tier required.
