What free covers

CapCut calls its editor completely free and lists free templates and basic tools. Canva Free includes templates, stock media, 1 Brand Kit with 3 colors and 5GB of storage.

Billing

CapCut lists monthly prices (Pro 19.99 USD) and calls them for reference only, with no annual prices. Canva shows yearly prices (Pro US$144) and a saving for yearly billing.
