The Creatify Dashboard: Your Creative Hub
Upon signing up for a free Creatify account, you are welcomed by a clean and intuitive dashboard. Key features are logically organized for easy navigation:
- Creative Tools: This is where the magic happens. Here you can access all the core functions for creating AI video ads, talking avatar videos, and more.
- Avatar: A central hub for managing your AI characters. You can browse Creatify’s extensive library of built-in avatars, create a custom avatar from scratch, or even turn a video of yourself into a digital twin using the “Bring Your Own Avatar” feature.
- Projects: Your personal content library. Every video you create or start is saved here, allowing you to easily resume work or make edits at any time.
- Admax: An advanced tool for scaling your marketing efforts. Admax enables marketers to run A/B split tests, gain competitor insights, and track ad performance in detail.
Crafting Your Custom AI Avatar
One of Creatify’s standout features is the ability to create a custom AI avatar. This is a game-changer for building brand consistency and a human face for your content without ever stepping in front of a camera. The process is simple:
- Start from scratch or a demo: You can begin with a pre-made prompt for inspiration or design your avatar entirely on your own.
- Describe your avatar: Use text prompts to define every detail, from age and gender to hairstyle, skin tone, and outfit. You can even specify the background scene, such as a cozy coffee shop with a beach view.
- Generate a preview: Creatify will generate four different images based on your prompt. You can tweak the details and regenerate until you find the perfect look.
- Process and name: Once you’re satisfied, submit the avatar for processing. This can take anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days. Once complete, you can name your avatar and even create multiple styles for different outfits or scenes.
Four Powerful Ways to Create Ads with Creatify
Creatify provides multiple pathways to create compelling video ads, catering to a variety of needs and use cases.
- AI-Generated Ad from a Product URLThis is perhaps the most impressive feature for e-commerce. By simply pasting a product URL from your website, Shopify, Amazon, or Etsy store, Creatify will automatically analyze the page, pull in product information, images, and video clips, and generate a complete video ad for you.
- Process: Paste the URL, let the AI analyze the content, tweak details like product name and description, select the desired assets, and choose your video settings (duration, aspect ratio, target audience).
- Script & Avatar: Creatify generates several AI-powered scripts based on your input. You can select one, adjust the tone of voice, and then choose from a range of pre-made or custom avatars to be the spokesperson for your ad.
- Variations: The platform generates multiple video variations, allowing you to easily preview and select the one that best fits your vision. You can then fine-tune details like captions and music before rendering the final, watermark-free video (on paid plans).
- Talking Avatar AdsIdeal for creating informational or promotional content, this method focuses on a single AI avatar delivering a message directly to the audience.
- Process: Start a new project and use the AI scriptwriter to generate a script based on your prompt.
- Avatar & Voice: Select your custom-made avatar or one from Creatify’s library. You can then clone your own voice or choose from hundreds of pre-made AI voices to deliver the script.
- Editor: The editor allows you to stack multiple scenes, changing the avatar’s location or outfit mid-video to keep the visuals fresh and engaging. This helps maintain viewer attention and adds a professional touch.
- AI-Powered Product PromosThis feature is perfect for showcasing products without the need for a full-scale photoshoot. Creatify can turn a single product image into a dynamic video.
- Process: Upload a product image, then choose from three video types:
- Product Shot: Adds a custom background to your image.
- Avatar Showcase: An avatar interacts with your product.
- Talking Video: The avatar interacts and talks about your product.
- Avatar & Prompting: Select an avatar or upload a photo to create a new one. Use text prompts to describe how the avatar should interact with the product (e.g., “model hugging the product”).
- Image to Video: Creatify generates a preview image, which you can then turn into a short video clip with subtle movements and expressions, bringing the still image to life.
- Process: Upload a product image, then choose from three video types:
- Animated AI ShortsThese are high-impact, fast-paced ads designed for platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
- Process: Use the AI scriptwriter to create a script for your short-form ad. The AI generates a full script with scene descriptions.
- Style & Ratio: Select a short style (e.g., “4K Realistic”) and aspect ratio (e.g., 1:1 for Instagram).
- Video Generation: Creatify builds the entire short ad, pairing the script with AI-generated images for each scene.
- Fine-Tuning: The editor gives you full control. You can switch out AI images with fresh generations, adjust animations for each scene, and choose from an extensive music library to set the right tone.

Creatify offers a tiered pricing structure to suit different needs:
- Free Plan: Includes 10 credits per month (enough for about two videos) and is perfect for testing the platform. Videos on this plan come with a watermark.
- Paid Plans: Start at $39 per month, with a Pro plan at $99 per month. These plans offer more credits, remove watermarks, and provide access to advanced features and a larger library of avatars.
