About Arcads

Arcads is a cutting-edge AI video ad generator that revolutionizes how marketers create user-generated content (UGC) style advertisements. Built on real human footage, the platform offers access to over 1,000 hyper-realistic AI actors that deliver natural gestures, expressions, and emotions in direct-to-camera videos. Unlike traditional video production that requires casting, filming, and extensive post-production, Arcads enables users to generate professional-quality video ads in minutes by simply inputting a script and selecting their preferred AI actor. The platform supports both text-to-speech and speech-to-speech conversion, making it versatile for various creative workflows and allowing marketers to test multiple ad variations quickly and cost-effectively.

The platform's comprehensive feature set includes full emotion control through text prompts, one-click AI video editing with B-rolls, music, captions, and transitions, and the ability to create custom AI actors that can hold products, display apps, or wear branded clothing. Arcads supports multi-language localization across 30+ languages, enabling global campaigns without the need for multiple production shoots. Performance marketers particularly benefit from the ability to generate diverse ad creatives rapidly, testing different actors, scripts, and styles to optimize campaign performance. The platform integrates seamlessly with popular social media advertising platforms including TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, ensuring videos are optimized for each channel's specifications and best practices.

Designed for e-commerce brands, SaaS companies, digital agencies, content creators, and small business owners, Arcads addresses the growing demand for authentic, engaging video content in social media advertising. The platform's browser-based interface requires no technical expertise or video editing skills, democratizing access to professional video ad creation. With features like bulk generation, API access for enterprise users, and ElevenLabs integration for advanced voice synthesis, Arcads scales from individual creators to large marketing teams. The cost-effectiveness compared to traditional video production—approximately $11 per video on standard plans—combined with the speed of generation makes it an attractive solution for businesses running continuous testing and optimization cycles in their paid social campaigns.

FAQs

How realistic are Arcads AI actors compared to real human videos?

Arcads AI actors are built on real human footage, making them hyper-realistic with natural gestures, expressions, and body language. The platform uses advanced AI technology trained on actual human performances to generate authentic-looking direct-to-camera videos that closely mimic user-generated content. Users can control emotions through text prompts, ensuring the AI actors deliver appropriate facial expressions and tones for different ad contexts. The realism is sufficient for professional social media advertising campaigns on platforms like TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

Can I create custom AI actors with my own branding or products?

Yes, Arcads offers custom AI actor creation capabilities that allow you to generate actors holding your specific products, displaying your app screens, or wearing branded clothing. This feature is particularly valuable for e-commerce brands and SaaS companies that need product-focused video ads. The custom actor functionality enables you to maintain brand consistency across multiple ad variations while testing different scripts and messaging approaches. This feature is available on higher-tier plans and provides a personalized touch to your video advertising campaigns.

What languages does Arcads support for video localization?

Arcads supports multi-language localization across more than 30 languages, enabling global marketing campaigns without additional production costs. The platform offers both text-to-speech and speech-to-speech conversion, allowing you to create the same video ad in multiple languages quickly. This localization capability is particularly valuable for international brands running campaigns across different geographic markets. The AI actors can deliver scripts in various languages with appropriate accents and natural pronunciation, making your ads feel native to each target market.

How quickly can I generate video ads with Arcads?

Arcads enables rapid video ad generation, typically producing finished videos in minutes rather than the days or weeks required for traditional video production. The streamlined workflow involves inputting your script, selecting an AI actor from the 1000+ library, customizing emotions and settings, and generating the final video. The one-click editing features for adding B-rolls, music, captions, and transitions further accelerate the process. This speed is particularly beneficial for performance marketers who need to test multiple ad variations quickly or respond rapidly to market trends and campaign performance data.

What is the cost per video compared to traditional video production?

On Arcads standard plans, the effective cost per video is approximately $11, with the Starter plan at $110/month for 10 videos and the Creator plan at $220/month for 20 videos. This represents significant savings compared to traditional UGC video production, which typically costs hundreds to thousands of dollars per video when factoring in actor fees, filming equipment, location costs, and editing time. The platform eliminates the need for physical production while maintaining professional quality, making it cost-effective for businesses running continuous ad testing and optimization. Enterprise users can access custom pricing with higher volume limits and additional features like API access and actor cloning.

Does Arcads integrate with advertising platforms and marketing tools?

Videos are automatically optimized for each platform's specifications and best practices. For enterprise users, the Pro plan includes API access that enables integration with existing marketing workflows and automation tools.
