Arcads

Arcads is an AI video ad creation platform built for marketers who need to produce short-form video ads quickly. Instead of switching between editing tools, timelines, and production workflows, Arcads brings AI models, AI actors, and ad-focused editing tools into one place so teams can create, refine, and launch video ads without a traditional production pipeline.

Key Features

• Library of 1,000+ AI Actors: Arcads offers an AI UGC library of more than 1,000 AI Actors that can appear in your ads. You can also create your own AI Avatar, including generating a face and making that avatar hold your product, show your app, or wear your clothes. This gives performance marketers a large pool of on-camera talent without casting or filming.

• Multiple AI models in one studio: The platform lets you pick the AI model that fits your creative goal, from cinematic video to realistic product visuals. Named models and tools shown on the site include Seedance, Kling, Nano Banana, Seedream, and GPT Image, alongside tools for background removal, captions, camera angles, talking actors, unboxing, product showcases, and video extension.

• AI video editing and localization: Arcads lets you edit, translate, extend, subtitle, upscale, and remix your video using AI tools. It supports accurate translation in more than 30 languages, voice changes, transcription, frame extraction, and actor swaps, so one ad concept can be adapted for different markets and formats.

• Emotion and performance control: You have full emotion control over AI Actors by writing how you want them to appear, including surprised expressions and other emotional states. Combined with captions, B-roll, music, and transitions, this helps ads feel more natural and tailored to the message rather than generic.

• Ready-made ad presets: Arcads includes ready-made ad presets built for performance marketers, letting you start from proven formats instead of building every ad from scratch. This shortens the path from idea to a testable creative that matches common direct-response ad structures.

• Workflow canvas for teams: Create Workflow brings all your tools and ad workflows into one infinite canvas so teams can create, test, and scale ads together. The site also mentions founder-level support from a team of performance marketers and builders.

Typical Use Cases

• Producing UGC-style ads without filming: A performance marketer starts with a product and a script idea, chooses an AI Actor from the library or creates a custom avatar, and generates a talking-head style ad. They then add captions and adjust the actor's emotion, ending up with a UGC-style creative that can be launched and tested across campaigns.

• Localizing one ad into many languages: A brand has a working video ad and wants to reach audiences in other markets. Using Arcads translation tools, they translate the video into one of more than 30 supported languages, change voices if needed, and add subtitles, producing localized versions of the same concept without reshooting.

• Creating product showcase visuals: A seller needs visuals of a product in realistic settings. They use product showcase and unboxing tools, generate or edit product visuals with models such as Seedream or Nano Banana, and remove backgrounds where needed, resulting in polished product-focused ad assets.

• Testing many creative variations as a team: A growth team uses the Workflow canvas to organize their tools and ad workflows in one place. They generate multiple actor and format variations from presets, review them together, and move the strongest versions forward for testing and scaling.
