Best Practices for E-commerce AI Videos

  • Show the product in use within the first 2 seconds—don't make viewers wait for the reveal
  • Include pricing information and clear CTAs: 'Shop now', 'Link in bio', 'Available at...'
  • Create platform-specific versions: 9:16 for TikTok/Reels, 1:1 for feed posts, 16:9 for web
  • Use AI product shots with lifestyle backgrounds—AI can place your product in any setting
  • Highlight key benefits, not just features—'waterproof' becomes 'never worry about rain again'
  • Refresh video content seasonally—AI makes it easy to create holiday and seasonal variants
