Create UGC ads without a creator

AI UGC ads are creator-style video ads generated end to end by AI, replacing the casting, filming and editing that a traditional user-generated campaign requires.

Process

How it works

Write the script

A hook, the product point, a call to action. Conversational phrasing outperforms polished ad copy.

Choose a presenter and voice

Pick who delivers it and how they sound. The voice is generated and lip-synced to the presenter.

Generate and iterate

Produce the ad, then spin variants by changing the hook. Each variant is a generation, not a re-shoot.

Capabilities

What the format gives you

Variants at generation cost

Test hooks, presenters and framings against each other without booking anything twice.

Voice and lip-sync included

The script becomes speech and the speech drives the mouth — one pipeline, not three tools.

Your product, not an approximation

Upload real product shots to composite or animate rather than generating a lookalike.

Platform-native ratios

9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 chosen before generation, so nothing is cropped afterwards.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI UGC ad?

An AI UGC ad is a video ad in the style of user-generated content — a person speaking to camera about a product — that is generated rather than filmed. The presenter, voice and delivery are produced by AI from a written script.

Do I need to hire creators?

No. That is the point of the format: casting, briefing, shipping product samples and waiting on delivery all disappear. You write the script and generate the presenter.

Can I test multiple versions of the same ad?

Yes, and it is the main reason teams use this. Because each variant costs a generation rather than a shoot, testing ten hooks against the same product is practical instead of prohibitive.

Will the ads look artificial?

Quality depends on the model and the script. Natural, spoken-sounding copy generates better than ad copy read aloud — write it the way someone would actually talk.

What platforms can I export for?

Vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts; square 1:1 and landscape 16:9 for feed placements. Set the ratio before generating so the ad is framed correctly from the start.

Can I use my own product images?

Yes. Upload product shots and they can be composited into the ad or animated directly, so the product on screen is the real one rather than a generated approximation.
