Faceless.video alternative: AutoShort vs Faceless.video

Looking for a Faceless.video alternative? AutoShort costs about the same at entry ($19 vs $20 a month) but gives roughly twice the standard videos (~30 vs up to 15). Faceless.video wins if you want fully hands-off posting to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, or credits that roll over.

Both tools turn a topic into a finished faceless short. They differ in how much they post for you and what a month of credits buys. Every Faceless.video fact below comes from its own pricing page and homepage; where they don't say, we write "Not listed".

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best Faceless.video alternative?▼

If price per video is what you care about, AutoShort: its $19 Starter plan makes about 30 standard faceless videos a month, while Faceless.video's $20 Starter plan makes up to 15. If you want posting on full autopilot, including Instagram, Faceless.video is the better fit.

Faceless.video's pricing page lists Starter at $20/month (30 credits, up to 15 videos), Daily at $35 (up to 30), Double at $59 (up to 60) and Studio at $149 (up to 175), with 30% off annual billing and credit top-ups for active subscribers. Check faceless.video/pricing for current prices.

Is AutoShort free?▼

No. AutoShort has no free plan. Every paid plan starts with a 3-day free trial that includes 120 credits (about 3 standard videos). A card is required, and you are charged the plan price (from $19/month) when the trial ends unless you cancel.

Does AutoShort post automatically like Faceless.video?▼

Partly. AutoShort can upload to YouTube on a schedule, but TikTok posts go out only after you review each video, and Instagram is not supported. Faceless.video can post drafts to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube on a schedule without review.

Which one makes real AI video instead of images?▼

Faceless.video lists scene-based AI Video and VEO/Clone premium video types. AutoShort's standard videos animate one AI image per scene; its AI video option makes a single 5–8 second clip for extra credits. If every scene must be a video-model clip, Faceless.video is ahead.
