Kapwing is the pick when your memes move. Its Meme Maker creates memes from images, videos, text or templates, and the template library is heavy on GIF memes, green screen video memes and reaction clips, alongside blank formats such as alignment charts and tier lists. The free plan gives 10 credits and unlimited exports with a watermark, capped at 4 minutes and 720p. Pro costs $16 per member per month billed annually, or $24 billed monthly, and removes the watermark, exports in 4K, raises uploads to 6 GB and includes 1,000 credits a month for auto-subtitling and dubbing. Business at $50 adds voice clones and lip sync. Kapwing's AI helps most with captions and subtitles on video memes rather than writing the joke itself, so it pairs well with a caption generator. For still image memes alone, it costs more than Imgflip or Supermeme.ai. We compared documented features and published prices rather than testing the app.
