Keyotte vs Kapwing: which one to cut out a video?
Kapwing and Keyotte don't play quite the same role. One is a full online video editor, the other a dedicated cutout tool. Here's how to choose, with official prices.
What's the difference between Keyotte and Kapwing?
Kapwing is a full online video editor, with background removal among many other tools; Keyotte does one thing: isolate the subject you choose and hand it back on green. With Kapwing you edit inside the tool; with Keyotte you edit in your usual app.
So the right choice depends on where you edit.
How much do Kapwing and Keyotte cost?
According to Kapwing's official pricing page checked on 23 October 2026, Pro costs $16 for 1,000 credits a month, and the free plan adds a watermark and caps exports at 720p. Keyotte is paid per video: €1.99 up to 1 minute, €4.99 up to 5 minutes, €9.99 up to 10 minutes.
| Keyotte | Kapwing | |
|---|---|---|
| Model | Per video, no subscription | Pro subscription (limited free plan) |
| Listed price | €1.99 / €4.99 / €9.99 by length | Pro: $16 (1,000 credits a month) |
| Free | 3 x 10-second previews per video | Free plan: watermark, 720p |
| Editing | In your own app | Full built-in editor |
| Output | Green screen MP4, 1080p, with sound | Depends on plan and tool |
Where is Kapwing better?
Kapwing is better if you want everything in one place: subtitles, trimming, resizing, background removal, export. A full editor on top of background removal is a real plus if you publish every week.
If you cut out a lot every month, the subscription can also work out cheaper than paying per video.
Where does Keyotte fit better?
Keyotte fits one-off needs, or when you edit in CapCut, Premiere, DaVinci or Final Cut. You pick the subject with a click (others stay out), check a free preview, and there's nothing to cancel.
Your videos are deleted automatically 7 days after upload and never used to train a model; after paying, you can request a refund from your account within 14 days. The green screen file then goes into your editor; see CapCut or Premiere Pro.
How do you decide?
Count your videos: one or two a month, paying per video is simpler; every day, an editor with a subscription makes sense. Try both on your own footage before deciding.
