Faceless.video vs AutoShorts.ai
Credits you can spend freely, or a fixed posting rhythm
Short answer: Pick Faceless.video if you want credits that roll over, several connected accounts and more videos per dollar on yearly billing. Pick AutoShorts.ai if you want one series on a fixed rhythm with voice cloning and 30 listed languages.
Pick Faceless.video if you run more than one channel and want unlimited connected accounts from $35 a month.
Pick AutoShorts.ai if you want one channel posting on a set rhythm with no credit maths.
Pick TallyReel if you want to approve each script and shot plan before it renders.
Faceless.video and AutoShorts.ai are close cousins. Both make short faceless videos around a topic and post them for you to TikTok, YouTube and Instagram, and both are built for people who want a channel running without daily editing.
The difference is the unit you buy. Faceless.video sells credits that turn into a set number of videos a month, roll over if unused, and can be topped up. AutoShorts.ai sells a posting rhythm: 3 times a week, once a day or twice a day, for one series. We read both pricing pages on October 18, 2026; here is what that means for cost, control and fit.

What you pay for a month of daily posts
On AutoShorts.ai a daily channel is simple: the Daily plan is $39 a month and posts once a day for one series. Twice a day is $69. Yearly billing is advertised as two months free. Each plan includes motion credits (62 on Daily) that animate still images.
On Faceless.video a daily channel means about 30 videos a month, which the Daily plan covers: $35 a month, or $25 a month billed yearly, for 60 credits and up to 30 videos, with unlimited connected accounts. Starter is $20, or $14 billed yearly, for up to 15 videos and one account. Double is $59 ($41 yearly) for up to 60 videos, and Studio is $149 for up to 175. Credits roll over, and subscribers can top up at $8 for 10, $35 for 50 or $120 for 200.
So for one daily channel the two are close on monthly billing, and Faceless.video is cheaper on yearly billing. For several channels, Faceless.video is the better deal, because AutoShorts plans each run one series.
Control and output
AutoShorts.ai builds videos from AI images in an art style you choose, then animates some scenes with motion credits. You can preview each video and edit the script, title, images and music before it posts. Length is 30 to 60 or 60 to 90 seconds, and the site says long-form isn't available yet. It lists 30 languages, from Arabic and Hindi to Japanese and Ukrainian.
Faceless.video starts you from proven formats and says each series posts to one TikTok, YouTube or Instagram account. Its plans include all video types, and multi-scene videos use more credits. Its public pages don't list languages, voices or length, so check those in a trial before paying.
Both share the weakness that comes with the category: daily autopilot videos in one style can start to feel the same. Vary styles and hooks within a series.
Who each one suits
- One TikTok channel, posting daily, no fuss: AutoShorts.ai Daily.
- Three or four channels on different niches: Faceless.video Daily or Double.
- Non-English Shorts in a listed language: AutoShorts.ai.
- Creator paying yearly to cut costs: Faceless.video, at $14 to $41 a month.
- Creator who wants their own voice on every video: AutoShorts.ai, which includes voice cloning.
Where TallyReel fits, and where it doesn't
TallyReel is for people who want autopilot with a review step. You plan a series of up to 30 videos from one theme, each script comes with a hook and planned shots, and nothing renders until you approve. Videos use real stock footage, AI pictures, your own photos and clips, voiceover in 44 languages and captions, and every plan schedules to 15 networks. Plus and Pro can run one series on autopilot. It also makes 16:9 YouTube videos up to 15 minutes, and AI host videos with one or two lip-synced hosts.
It isn't the cheapest way to post twice a day: a minute of stock video uses 100 credits, so high-volume Shorts add up. Studio, a one-time payment, removes credits if you have an Apple silicon Mac or a 64-bit Windows PC with enough memory.
