Product Description to Ad

---

name: revid-product-description-to-ad description: Turn a product description (free-form text — no URL needed) into a punchy 15–30 second AI-generated ad with hooks, CTA, and visuals. Use when the user pastes copy or specs but doesn't have a live page to scrape. metadata: {"openclaw":{"requires":{"config":["REVID_API_KEY"]}}}

Product description → AI ad

Take a paragraph (or bullet list) describing a product and produce a polished short-form ad. The ad-generator workflow writes the hook + body + CTA itself based on the description.

When to use this skill

The user pastes a product description, spec sheet, or feature list — *not* a

URL.

They want hook → benefit → CTA structure (a *commercial*).

They have no avatar / talking-head requirement (use

revid-blog-to-avatar-video for that).

For a live URL, use

revid-shopify-product-promo.

Inputs

| Field | Required | Notes | |---|---|---| | prompt | yes | The product description (the AI uses it as the brief) | | stylePrompt | no | Optional brand voice notes (e.g. *"Apple-like, calm, premium"*) | | aspectRatio | no | Default 9:16 | | targetDuration | no | Default 22 (s) | | mediaItems | no | If you have product images, pass them in media.provided |

Step-by-step

1. Validate prompt has at least ~30 words (otherwise the ad is too thin). 2. Build the payload below; if product images were provided, slot them into media.provided and set media.useOnlyProvided: false (mix with stock). 3. POST /render. 4. Poll /status. 5. Return videoUrl.

ad-generator defaults to higher visual quality than article-to-video because ads compete on the first second. If credits are tight drop quality to pro.

Examples

examples/aeropods-ad.json — payload with brand

notes.

examples/run.sh — accepts description as a file or

positional arg.

Failure modes

| Symptom | Fix | |---|---| | Hook is generic | Make prompt specific. "Wireless earbuds" → meh. "Wireless earbuds with adaptive ANC and 38h battery for $179" → strong. | | Ad reads like a feature list, not a hook | Add stylePrompt: "Lead with a question or emotional hook. Save specs for the middle. End with the price + a single CTA." | | Visuals don't match the product | Pass real product images via media.provided: [{ url, type: "image" }]. The AI will weave them in. | | Voice rushes | Lower voice.speed to 0.95. | | Too many on-screen stickers | options.addStickers: false. |
