Very bad one

Very bad one. Such a scam . İt doesn’t gives 10% accuracy also. They charge subscription fees and points fees as well. For every video you need least of 20 points to generate

Hello, Lis here. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and share your opinion with us. We really appreciate hearing your feedback.

May I ask if before generating the video you are using the filter inside Scene Settings? When you go to Select Visuals, you can filter by category and industry before generating the video. This helps the system choose visuals that are much more relevant for your content.

About the points or credits. Credits are only used when creating avatars or generating AI images inside the Studio. Regular video creation should not deduct points. If you are seeing points deducted for normal video generation, that would be an error and we would like to check it.

Please feel free to contact us at support@pictory.ai
so we can review what is happening. We would really appreciate the opportunity to do better and help resolve this for you.

My journey and appreciation with Pictory ai.Pictory ai has taught me how to create…

Pictory ai has taught me how to create videos. When l started, l had no clue how and what. However, they did not kick me out, rather they were patient with me as l gradually became a pro. They kept updating me with their updates which were very helpful. With Pictory, l have successfully generated beautiful videos based on my personal journey and spiritual wisdom backed with Bible quotes and citation. Many well Lenard pastors and men of God has encouraged me to continue spreading the good news and l owe all to my God who directed me to locate Pictory ai. I am praying that one day, all these efforts will become fruitful by financially supporting all our endeavors in Jesus mighty name Amen. Thank you Pictory.

Pictory Makes Video Creation Simple and Affordable

I’ve used Pictory before, and it’s great to see how much it has improved, especially the AI voice quality. The team was very responsive and helped me find a Professional plan that fit my budget, unlike other companies I reached out to. Pictory’s text-to-video tool is simple, fast, and easy to use, which is perfect for someone managing multiple projects. Overall, it’s a user-friendly platform with excellent customer support that truly cares about continuous improvement.

Too much creative license

I like it that I can generate a PowerPoint Presentation and Pictory can create a video from it, I do think that Pictory and AI in general does take too much creative license and steers the video in their assumed direction

listing and caring

The Pictory team exemplifies the art of listening to clients and customers as true friends and partners, thoughtfully addressing their unique needs on our shared AI journey, whether by phone call, text message, or email. They are quick and ready to communicate. This approach is not just innovative; it reflects our transition to an era of heightened consciousness. We are moving away from traditional hierarchical structures and ego-driven corporate business towards a more socially and individually creativity-focused technological landscape. This best describes my experience with the team at Pictory.ai

I started on the free trial and then…

I started on the free trial and then signed up for a paid package, but I was never able to access the paid account. Despite multiple attempts to get help, I could not get a clear or effective response from support.

I kept getting generic AI replies that didn’t resolve the issue or explain how to fix it. After nearly two days of going back and forth with no progress and no access to what I paid for, I documented all communications and canceled.

This experience was frustrating and avoidable. Based on the lack of support when there was a billing and access issue, I would not recommend moving forward.

I completely understand why this experience made you cancel, and I respect that hesitation. Still, I would really appreciate the chance to personally review what went wrong with your account.

If you are open to it, please reply with the email you used to sign up so we can investigate the technical and billing issue in detail and give you a clear explanation. This year the platform has improved significantly, and I truly believe it is worth giving it a second look once everything is working as expected.

Either way, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It helps us improve where we need to.

A Powerhouse for Content Creators (If You Bring Your Vision!)

I’ve been using Pictory.ai for a while now, and it has completely transformed my workflow for turning long-form content into engaging social media videos. It is, without a doubt, one of the most efficient AI video tools on the market today.

The AI is incredibly intuitive—it handles the heavy lifting of transcribing, finding stock footage, and syncing captions with impressive accuracy. However, what people need to understand to truly get the most out of this platform is that it isn’t a "set it and forget it" magic wand.

To achieve a professional, high-quality result, you need to apply your own creative touch. While the AI suggests clips and layouts, the real magic happens when you use your creativity to refine the pacing, swap out specific visuals to better match your brand’s voice, and tweak the messaging.

If you view Pictory as a highly skilled assistant rather than a total replacement for your creative direction, you will see incredible results. It saves me hours of manual editing, but it still allows me the flexibility to inject my own style into every project.

Highly recommended for anyone looking to scale their video production without sacrificing quality!

I’m extremely disappointed with…

I’m extremely disappointed with Pictory. I paid for Premium expecting to create videos, only to discover that Premium does NOT actually allow you to generate videos without buying additional “points”. This was never clearly explained during checkout.

The app forces you through multiple confusing screens (style, camera motion, points, upsells) and repeatedly asks for more money even after paying for a subscription. This feels intentionally misleading.

I did not generate or download a single video, yet I was blocked by a hidden credit system. Premium should mean usable not “pay again to actually do anything”.

For professionals and businesses, especially healthcare, this workflow is frustrating, time wasting, and unacceptable. I’ve cancelled and moved to a competitor with transparent pricing.

Pictory seriously needs to fix its pricing clarity and user experience.

Hello Mehwish! Lis here. Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. I am truly sorry to hear about the frustration this experience caused.

What you described is not the experience we want for our users. Premium is meant to enable video creation, not create confusion or friction. Your feedback about the points system, checkout clarity, and workflow is important and already being reviewed by our product team.

I saw the response our support team shared with you, and we would really appreciate the opportunity to give you a second look at Pictory. If you are open to it, we would like to review your account directly, explain how the system works in detail, and see if we can make this right for you.

Please reach out to us at support@pictory.ai so we can personally review your case and help clarify everything. A human support specialist will take care of this with you.

Thank you again for taking the time to explain your concerns so clearly. Your feedback helps us improve.
