# AI product video generator from a single photo.

An AI product video generator creates a video ad from a photo of your product. RiffAds makes two kinds: an AI creator who holds your product and talks about it, and product shots made with Veo 3.1 or Kling 3.

## What is an AI product video generator?

An AI product video generator turns product photos into video ads without a studio shoot. It either animates the product itself or adds an AI creator who holds it and talks about it. In RiffAds, a ready-made workflow turns one photo and your brand details into an 8 second vertical clip of an AI creator holding your product.

### How it works

1. **Open the template**: In Workflows, open Product photo to spoken ad, one of 20 ready-made templates.
2. **Add photo and brand**: Upload one clear product photo, then fill in the brand name, a short description, the vibe and one key phrase.
3. **Check the estimate**: The credit estimate shows beside the Run button, so you know the cost before anything is charged.
4. **Download and finish**: Get an 8 second 9:16 clip of the creator holding your product, then add captions or stitch it with other shots.

### Best for

- DTC and Shopify brands
- Amazon sellers adding video
- Catalogs with many products
- Agencies with product clients
- AI agents working a catalog

### RiffAds in numbers

## Questions

### How do you make product videos with AI?

Start from one clear product photo. In RiffAds, open the Product photo to spoken ad workflow, upload the photo and add your brand name, a short description, the vibe and a key phrase. The workflow drafts the lines, uses Nano Banana Pro to create an AI creator holding your product, renders a 9:16 talking clip with Omni Flash 1.1, then adds a close product shot, music, captions and a 4:5 copy for feed. The credit estimate shows before you press Run.

### Can an AI model hold my product in the video?

Yes. The Product photo to spoken ad workflow shows an invented creator holding your product and saying lines written from your brand details. For a longer pitch, build a workflow that makes a still of a creator with your product and feeds it to a talking actor as the face. OmniHuman 1.5 speaks audio under 60 seconds long. The creators are made with AI, not real people.

### Why does my product look warped or different in an AI video?

Because the model has to guess every side of the product your photo does not show, and it may redraw small text or logos. Use a sharp, well-lit photo on a plain background that shows the side you want on camera. Veo 3.1 accepts up to three reference images, so add other angles, and render a few takes to pick the most accurate one.

### How much does an AI product video cost on RiffAds?

You pay in credits, at $0.01 each. Veo 3.1 video starts at 35 credits a second, and Kling 3 starts at 14.7 credits a second. Every job shows its price before it runs. The Launch plan costs $49 a month and includes 4,500 credits, and credits you do not use never expire.

### Do I have to label an AI-generated product video when I run it as an ad?

On TikTok, yes: an ad with AI-generated media must carry TikTok's AIGC label or a clear disclaimer you add, or the ad is rejected or restricted. Since June 1, 2026, Meta uses automated detection to find ad media made with outside AI tools, and labels what it finds 'AI info'. Do not script the creator as a real buyer: the FTC rule on fake testimonials bars one that materially misrepresents that the person giving it exists or used the product.

### Can I use AI product videos in Amazon, TikTok and Meta ads?

You can upload them to any platform that takes video ads, and that platform's own ad review decides whether each one runs. RiffAds gives you a finished video file to download and has no link to your store or ad account, so you upload it to Amazon, TikTok or Meta yourself. If a placement needs another shape, the Resize tool changes the shape of a finished clip.

### Can my AI agent make product videos for a whole catalog?

Yes, within limits a person sets. With the API, MCP, Agent Skills and CLI, which every plan has, an agent like Claude can upload product photos, get a free estimate and generate a video for each one from your credit balance. By default an agent job may spend up to 600 credits and your agents 2,000 credits a day. Owners and admins can change both numbers.

## About RiffAds

RiffAds makes realistic UGC video ads with AI actors, lip-synced to your script, in the studio or from your AI agent through API, MCP, Agent Skills and CLI. It never posts to a social account: every result is a download link to the finished file.

RiffAds is priced in credits. 1 credit is $0.01 and credits never expire. Plans start at $49 a month for 4,500 credits. A 30 second talking actor ad is about 848 credits. The studio, the REST API and the MCP server spend the same balance at the same prices, so there is no separate API price.
