Magic Hour alternatives

Magic Hour is a browser and API tool for generating and editing AI video, images and audio, with face swap, lip sync, templates and a hosted MCP server for agent workflows. When choosing a replacement, check whether you need an API, lip sync or face swap, how each pricing model fits your budget (freemium, paid, or unknown), and whether you need extras such as scheduled posting, music generation or talking avatars.
