First AI ad video, step by step

What you'll need

• An email address or a Google account.
• One clear photo of your product, or a link to its product page (Shopify, Amazon and similar).
• Credits (the balance each video or picture spends). New accounts may start with a welcome credit balance; check your balance after sign-up. If it is too low, see Buy credits.

Steps

1. Create your account. Go to reviral.ai/login and pick the Create account tab. Type your Email and a Password of at least 8 characters, then press Create account. You will see "Confirmation email sent": open the email, confirm, come back and sign in. You can also press Continue with Google instead.
2. Check your credits. In the left sidebar, under your email, you see your credit balance and a Top up link. Top up opens Billing, where you can buy a pack.
3. Open UGC Ads. In the sidebar, open UGC Studio and choose UGC Ads (page: /app/ugc-creator/scene-ad). You see the heading "Turn any product into a scene ad".
4. Add your product. Press Add product photo ("Paste a link or upload"). Paste a product link and press Use this image on the picture you want, or upload a photo. The first photo is your main product; you can add up to 4 extra angles (back, side, label) so the product stays the same in every scene.
5. Pick your creator. Press Choose your creator. Pick a face under Reviral presets, or press Upload your photo and then Save as my avatar (free).
6. Choose the shape. Under Length, keep 15s (30s, 45s and 60s show "Coming soon"). Under Resolution, pick one of the qualities listed after "Available now". Under Aspect, pick 9:16 for TikTok and Reels or 16:9 for YouTube. Leave Format, Hook and Setting on Auto to let Reviral choose.
7. Write the ad for free. Type a rough idea in Your ad idea (optional), or leave it empty, and press ✨ Write my ad — free. A card appears for the clip, with What you see (what happens on screen) and What they say (the exact spoken words). Edit either box; what you type is what renders.
8. Render. Press Render · N cr: the number is the credit price for your account, shown before you pay. Reviral opens your project page and shows the progress. It usually takes 5-10 minutes, and you can leave the page while it renders.
9. Download. When the video is ready, press Download on the project page. You also find it later in Projects.

At a glance

If something goes wrong

• The Render button is greyed out. The line under it says what is missing, for example "Add a product photo to enable Render." or "Tap ✨ Write my ad first — you review every clip before paying."
• "Not enough credits — this render needs N, you have M." Press Top up, buy credits, and press Render again.
• "Price unavailable, try again in a moment": the price could not be read just now. Wait a moment and reload the page.
• The render failed. The project page shows why. Most failure messages end with "Your credits are returned." See Credits when a render fails.
