Facebook's ad algorithm rewards short, sound-on video — and burns through creative fast. The standard answer is to brief a freelancer every few weeks. The faster answer is to generate the next ad yourself in under two minutes. MakeThisVid is the loop: type the scene, pick 9:16 for Reels or 16:9 for in-feed, generate, drop into Ads Manager.

Frequently Asked Questions

9:16 (1080×1920) for Reels and Stories; 1:1 or 4:5 for in-feed; 16:9 (1920×1080) for in-stream and most placements. We output 16:9 and 9:16 — for 1:1 you can crop the 16:9 output in any editor, or stick to 9:16 which works almost everywhere.
Yes. Download the MP4 from your account, upload it as the asset for your ad in Ads Manager. No conversion needed — it's already in the right codec.
