Fotor takes a different route from caption tools: its AI meme generator creates the image. You describe the meme, pick a style, and Fotor generates it, then you add top and bottom text with adjustable font, color, outline and shadow. Fotor lists styles from cat and dog memes to Ghibli-style and realistic scenes, plus AI meme effects for your own photo, a one-click background remover for transparent PNG memes, multi-panel templates and a video meme maker. Fotor describes the online generator as free. For the paid tier, Fotor's web pricing page did not show USD amounts from our location, so we used the US App Store, where Fotor Pro costs $8.99 a month or $47.99 a year. It is a good fit when no existing template matches your joke. If you want a known template with a witty caption, Imgflip or Supermeme.ai is quicker. We compared documented features and published prices rather than testing the app.
