AI video for ecommerce
A video ad for every product, not just the hero SKU.
AI video for ecommerce turns product photos and a short description into UGC-style ads and product videos. VIDEO AI ME generates the actor, the voice and the captions, animates your product images, and exports the vertical and square cuts paid social needs.
Why is video still rare in ecommerce?
The blocker is production, not intent. Filming, editing and re-cutting per channel is what keeps most teams on photos and text.
Creative burns out faster than you can film
Paid social eats variants. A single hero video cannot carry a campaign for long, and reshooting for each angle is not realistic.
A shoot per SKU does not scale
Catalogues grow weekly. Creator fees and shipping samples make video the exception rather than the default for most products.
Static images lose the feed
The placements that sell now are video-first, so product photography alone leaves the best inventory unused.
What can you make for ecommerce?
Each of these starts from text you already have, and ends as a captioned video in the formats your channels use.
UGC-style ads
An AI actor holds the angle you want to test, with captions and a hook in the first seconds.
Product demos from photos
Animate catalogue images into motion shots and add narration over them.
Offer and seasonal cuts
Swap the message and re-render for a sale, a bundle or a restock.
Localized variants
The same ad in another language, lip-synced rather than subtitled only.
How do you make an ecommerce video?
- 01
Start from what you already wrote
A page, a description or an outline is enough to draft the script for an ecommerce video. You keep editing it until it says what you mean.
- 02
Pick the actor and the voice
Choose from 300+ AI actors, or create a custom actor from a single photo, then pick a narrator voice or use your cloned one.
- 03
Approve the storyboard
You see the frames and the cost before any video credits are spent, so nothing expensive happens without your go-ahead.
- 04
Export the cuts and publish
Burn in captions, export the vertical and horizontal versions, then schedule them to 15 social platforms from the same workspace.
Which format should each channel get?
One script, several cuts. Each aspect ratio is its own export, so the vertical and the horizontal versions can carry different hooks.
| Channel | Format | What works |
|---|---|---|
| TikTok and Reels | 9:16 | Hook first, captions on, one claim per ad |
| Meta feed | 1:1 and 9:16 | Variants for creative testing |
| Product page | 16:9 | Demo loop next to the buy button |
| YouTube Shorts | 9:16 | Same cut, different hook |
Where do ecommerce videos get published?
Each platform page covers the format, the length and the opening that channel rewards, for this industry.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use my own product photos in the video?
Yes. Product images can be animated into short camera moves and used as shots inside the video, and a product photo can also be handed to the actor pipeline so the item appears in the scene.
How many ad variants can I make from one product?
As many as your credits allow. Each variant is its own run and quotes its cost before you confirm, so testing five hooks on one product is a budgeting decision rather than a production one.
Do I need a camera, a studio or actors?
No. Videos are generated from text and images: you write or paste the message, pick from 300+ AI actors or create a custom actor from a single photo, and the narration comes from text-to-speech or your cloned voice. Nothing is filmed.
Which formats and platforms are supported?
Vertical 9:16, horizontal 16:9 and square 1:1 cover the usual placements. Publishing and scheduling reach 15 social platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn, from the same place the videos are generated.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $29 a month with 1,400 credits on Starter, where one credit is one cent. Every run quotes its credit cost before you confirm, so short clips and long videos are never billed the same.
