Step-by-Step Guide

1

Write your script

Write a conversational script in first person, like a real person talking to friends. Keep it 30-60 seconds for best engagement. Focus on benefits, not features. Include a clear call-to-action.

Pro Tip: Start with a hook in the first 2 seconds. 'I can't believe this actually worked...' performs better than 'This product has great features...'
2

Choose your AI avatar

Select from our library of 100+ diverse AI avatars or create a custom avatar. Choose someone who matches your target audience - age, style, and energy matter for authenticity.

Pro Tip: For UGC, casual/relatable avatars outperform polished/professional looks. Think 'friend recommendation' not 'spokesperson'.
3

Select voice and style

Choose a voice that matches your avatar and brand. We offer male and female voices in 35+ languages. Select the delivery style - casual/energetic for TikTok, more measured for LinkedIn.

Pro Tip: Natural voices with slight imperfections feel more authentic than perfect voice-over quality.
4

Generate your video

Submit your script and settings. Our AI generates the video in 2-5 minutes, combining video generation, voice synthesis, and lip synchronization into a realistic talking-head video.

Pro Tip: Longer videos are generated as segments and stitched together seamlessly.
5

Review and publish

Review your AI UGC video and make adjustments if needed. Download in vertical (9:16) format for TikTok/Reels or horizontal (16:9) for YouTube. Add to your ad campaigns or organic content.

Pro Tip: A/B test different avatars and hooks to find top performers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will viewers know it's AI-generated?

Quality AI UGC videos are designed for authenticity. When done well, viewers focus on the message, not the medium. That said, being transparent about AI use is increasingly important - check platform guidelines.

How does AI UGC compare to real creator content?

AI UGC costs $2-10 per video vs $500+ for real creators. You get unlimited revisions, faster turnaround, and consistent quality. Many brands use AI for testing and scale winning concepts with real creators.

What video lengths work best?

For TikTok/Reels, 15-30 seconds performs best. YouTube Shorts can go up to 60 seconds. For ads, test both short (15s) and longer (30-60s) versions to find what works for your audience.
