Animated marketing videos from a link or a brief

Updated October 2026

Why use animation in your marketing?

An animated video explains what you sell faster than a page of text: the problem, your solution and the result, drawn in front of the viewer. Animated marketing videos work on landing pages, in ads, in sales emails and on social media — and they don't need a film crew, actors or a product that's easy to film. Software, services and ideas are often easier to animate than to shoot.

Animated marketing videos you can make

• Product explainer — what it is, who it's for, how it works (product animation).
• Homepage video — a 60–90 second overview above the fold.
• Social ads — 15–30 second vertical promos for Reels, TikTok and Shorts.
• Sales videos — send a short explainer instead of a long follow-up email.
• SaaS feature launches (SaaS explainer videos).
• Company and service videos for local and B2B businesses.

How it works

1. Paste a link or write a brief. Your website, product page or a few lines about the offer, audience and call to action.
2. Review the script. AI writes a hook, problem, solution and call to action. Edit the claims and wording to match your brand.
3. Choose voice, length and shape. Landscape for websites and YouTube, vertical for social ads; 15 narration languages.
4. Generate and publish. Download the MP4 and use it on your site, in ads, emails and posts.

What makes an animated marketing video convert

• Hook in 3 seconds on social, 10 seconds on a website.
• Talk about the customer's problem before your product.
• One message, one call to action.
• Short: 15–30 s for ads, 60–90 s for explainers.
• Need a structure? Use our explainer video script template.

Cost: AI vs. an animation studio

A studio-made 60-second animated marketing video usually costs anywhere from a few thousand dollars upward and takes weeks (see our explainer video cost guide). With AI you can produce and test several versions in an afternoon for a few dollars — then put budget behind the one that performs. Pricing is simple: 1 credit = 1 minute of finished video. Plans start at $9.99 a month (12 video-minutes), with one-off credit packs if you don't want a subscription. See pricing.
