AI Video Ad Generator for Content Creators

Content creators need video content constantly — but the irony is that creating video about your own content creation is time-consuming. MakeThisVid lets you generate polished promotional clips from a text prompt or photo: a hook video for your next sponsorship pitch, a promo for a merchandise drop, a visual teaser for a course launch, or a social ad for growing your channel's audience. Generate the building blocks of your content marketing machine in under two minutes each — without carving time out of your filming and editing schedule.

How to Use MakeThisVid

From prompt to downloadable MP4, ready to deploy.

  1. Choose a plan or credit pack

    Lite ($14.99/mo, 20 credits), Standard ($29.99/mo, 50 credits), Pro ($79.99/mo, 200 credits). Credit packs start at $9.99 for 5 — useful for one-off merch drops or sponsorship pitches.

  2. Choose your mode

    Photo → Video: upload a headshot, channel art, or product photo. Text → Video: describe the vibe of your content, a scene from your niche, or the benefit your audience gets from following you.

  3. Write a prompt that captures your content's energy

    Your ad needs to feel like your content. E.g. for a cooking channel: "Close-up of a perfectly plated dish in warm kitchen light, steam rising slowly, slow dolly push-in, cinematic food photography aesthetic." For a fitness creator: "Athlete mid-movement in a sun-lit gym, dynamic and energetic, dramatic side light, motion blur on the action frame."

  4. Generate at 720p or 1080p

    1 credit per 720p, 2 credits per 1080p. Renders complete in 45–90 seconds. Credits refund automatically on failure.

  5. Deploy on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and sponsorship materials

    Download the MP4. Run as a paid ad, post organically, use in a sponsorship media kit, or embed on your link-in-bio page. Commercial use included on every plan.
