The honest brief

Argil

Clones your likeness from just one photo and a minute of audio — far less capture than rivals needing video footage to train an avatar.

  • Self-clone from one photo + short audio
  • 100+ ready-made avatars
  • Auto captions, B-roll, and transitions
  • Turns articles/scripts into videos
  • No free tier (5-day trial only)
  • Credit limits scale with plan price
  • Unlimited styles need the Pro tier
  • Avatar realism varies by clip

Captions

Built on Mirage, its parent's in-house video foundation model — not a wrapper around third-party video generators.

  • In-house Mirage video model
  • Auto captions, B-roll, eye-contact fix
  • AI personas render video from a script
  • Multi-language dubbing
  • Focused on talking-head/short-form only
  • Best features behind paid tiers
  • Avatar output can look synthetic
