Vizard is a well-known AI clipping tool, and many creators wonder whether it fits their Shorts workflow. Compare on price using only each tool's own site. The short version: ViralSplice Pro at $9 a month undercuts Vizard Creator by $20 a month on monthly billing, and ViralSplice's $120 lifetime option ends the monthly bill entirely, something Vizard does not list. The tools are not identical, so price alone does not settle the choice, but price is a clear place to start.
The monthly prices side by side
Prices as listed on Vizard pricing page, November 2026. ViralSplice prices confirmed on slice.coderao.com #pro-section, November 2026. All prices are in US dollars, before tax.

Explain the gap: $9 vs $29 is $20 a month less. Over a year, ViralSplice Pro at $90 vs Vizard Creator yearly $174 is $84 less. On monthly billing, the difference is $20 every month, and on yearly billing, the difference is $84 over the year. Vizard Creator at $14.50 a month billed yearly totals $174 for the year, and Business at $19.50 a month billed yearly totals $234 for the year. The $120 lifetime payment ends the monthly bill entirely, while Vizard's paid plans keep billing.
What each plan includes
Vizard is credit based: 1 credit equals 1 minute of video uploaded, so the monthly credit count is the real limit, and higher credit selections cost more. Its paid plans include 4K export, no watermark, scheduling, and a full editor, with Business adding a shared workspace and brand kit.
ViralSplice is flat, not credit based: it turns a long video into vertical 9:16 Shorts, finds the strongest moments, reframes with blurred background borders, and burns in animated captions automatically. Pro includes 50 jobs a day, 1GB uploads, videos up to 60 minutes, no watermark, and a priority queue. No credits to count. In practice, that means a Vizard user watches credits, while a ViralSplice Pro user watches jobs per day instead.
How to choose between them
If you need a scheduler, team workspace, or very large upload volumes measured in credits, Vizard's paid plans may justify their price, and its free plan is a fair way to test clipping. If your main job is repurposing long videos into Shorts every day, the features that matter most are clip selection, captions, upload limits, and the monthly bill, and that is where ViralSplice Pro at $9 a month, $90 a year, or $120 once is hard to beat. Start with the free plans if you want a low-risk test: Vizard Free gives 60 credits a month, and ViralSplice Free gives 5 jobs a day with watermarked clips. Once you know which workflow fits, pick the paid plan that matches how often you publish. Check both pricing pages before you buy, because prices can change.
