Easy slideshow-style video maker
Animoto is an easy, drag-and-drop video maker known for turning photos and video clips into polished slideshow-style videos with music, popular for marketing, social media, and personal videos. A long-standing tool, it emphasizes simplicity, letting anyone create professional-looking videos without editing skills.
The platform provides drag-and-drop editing, a large library of templates, licensed music and stock media (including Getty Images on higher tiers), text and branding options, and simple customization, all designed to make video creation approachable. Its focus on ease and speed suits small businesses, marketers, educators, and individuals who want quick, attractive videos.
Animoto offers a Free plan (with watermark and standard quality), a Basic plan around 15 dollars per month billed annually (removing the watermark), a Professional plan at 15 to 29 dollars with higher quality and stock, and a Professional Plus (Teams) plan around 49 dollars per month with premium Getty stock, multiple users, and resale rights, with annual billing roughly halving effective rates. Aimed at small businesses, marketers, and creators, it competes with VEED, InVideo, FlexClip, Vimeo, and CapCut.
