What we make
What is RiffAds?
RiffAds is a web app for making UGC-style video ads with AI actors. You write a script, pick an actor and a voice, and get a finished video file. Your AI agent can make the same ads through API, MCP, Agent Skills and CLI. Everything is paid in credits from one wallet, and 1 credit is $0.01.

The problem
Why we built RiffAds
Paid social runs on many versions of each ad: new hooks, new faces, new languages. Booking a creator for every version takes time and money.
Generative AI can now make those versions, and more of the work is done by AI agents. An agent needs three things spelled out: a price before it starts, a limit it cannot pass, and a file it can hand back.
The numbers behind it
3 to 5
different creatives per ad group, with 3 to 5 ad groups per campaign, is TikTok's own suggestion.

What we built
One studio, the same generation tools for your AI agent, and one credit wallet for both.
One studio
Write a script, pick an actor and a voice, and get the video. Images, b-roll and finishing tools sit in the same place.
The same tools for agents
Actors, models and editing tools work from the MCP server, REST API, Agent Skills and CLI too, on every paid plan. Creating a custom actor or a new voice stays in the studio.
One credit wallet
1 credit is $0.01. The studio and every agent surface spend the same balance at the same prices.
Our principles
What we believe
Six rules the product keeps. Each one describes how RiffAds works today, not a plan.
Price before you spend
Every job is priced before it starts, and you see the price before you confirm. An agent can check the price for free, must name the most it may spend, and a job over that cap is refused, never trimmed.
See plans and pricingCredits never expire
Unused credits stay in your workspace for as long as your account exists, even after you cancel. Payments are final, and we say so up front.
Read the Refund PolicyA person sets the limits
An agent names its own cap for each job, but it cannot pass the limits a person sets. By default an agent may spend 600 credits a job and 2,000 credits in any 24 hours. A workspace owner or admin can change both and give each API key its own budget.
How agents connectWe never post for you
RiffAds never posts to Meta, TikTok, YouTube, X or any other platform. You get a download link to each finished file, and where the ad goes is your call.
Real faces and voices need consent
Library actors are made with AI. To use a real person's face or voice, other than your own, you need their written consent first, and we ask you to confirm it before a voice is cloned.
