More templates, faster generation, half the price
Both Krust and Arcads generate AI UGC ads from a script and product, but the price difference is significant: Krust starts at $19 for a 7-day trial then $49/month, while Arcads starts at $110/month with no trial. Krust ships with 1000+ proven ad templates organized by format and vertical (skincare, supplements, SaaS, fitness, etc.), and exports Meta-ready 9:16 video in under 2 minutes. Arcads is a strong tool with realistic actors, but if you're a Shopify or DTC brand testing ad creative weekly, Krust gives you more variations per dollar.
