A product's whole marketing budget increasingly lives in the first three seconds of a UGC-style ad, so the format matters more than the production budget behind it.
Founders sink budget into polished studio product shots that convert worse on short-form than a rougher, UGC-style review clip a real customer might post.

Frequently asked questions
Which Versely workflow fits Ecommerce Brands best?+
"Plush Lipstick Influencer Review" is a close match — it's built for 9:16 at 186 credits on Vidu Q3 Image to Video, and every prompt, voiceover line and reference image is editable before you render your own version.
What aspect ratio should Ecommerce Brands use for AI video?+
9:16 — vertical is the default for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, where most of this audience's watch time lives.
How often should Ecommerce Brands post AI-generated video?+
About 5x a week, roughly 22 posts a month. If every post were a full workflow render at the recommended workflows' real cost, that's about 4092-24200 credits a month — mixing in real footage or lighter one-tap templates brings that down.
Should ecommerce ads look polished or rough?+
Rougher, UGC-style creative consistently outperforms studio-polished ads on short-form platforms because it reads as a genuine review rather than a paid ad.
How many ad variations should I test at once?+
As many hook variations as your budget allows testing simultaneously — the winning creative is rarely the first one produced, and volume of iteration beats a single 'perfect' ad.
