Pika

Pika lets you create and edit short videos from text or images, with fun effects that make it popular for social media content. It is aimed at creators, marketers and training teams who want video without expensive shoots. Pricing at a glance: Free plan; paid Starter, Creator ($35/mo) and Fancy tiers. As of October 2026, Pika is actively developed and available. Before paying, test the free tier or trial with your own real tasks, check usage limits and commercial-use terms, and compare it with alternatives such as Runway, Kling AI, CapCut. Prices change often, so confirm the current plan on the official pricing page. Lesson for users: always keep your own copies of important data when you rely on any AI service, because products can change owners or close with little notice.
