An AI influencer generator builds a creator you can film with. You pick a preset, write a description or upload a face photo, and MakeViral makes a 9:16 portrait with a name and a voice. Then you shoot: your product in that creator's hand, a talking clip lip-synced to a script, or a hook joined to a demo.

Cast a creator once, then use the same face for the whole campaign: product in hand, a talking script with lip sync, or a hook joined to a demo clip.

**Start now:** [Cast your first creator](https://www.makeviral.ai/influencer) (opens the MakeViral app).

## Creator and video tools

One creator, three ways to put them on camera. Start from the ad you need, or from the creator you want to build.

- [AI UGC Ad Generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-ugc-ad-generator): Generate AI UGC ads: a creator you cast holds your product and reads a 15-second script. Real credit costs, hook tests. Make your first variation.
- [AI UGC Creator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-ugc-creator): Cast an AI UGC creator once: a name, a 9:16 portrait and a voice you reuse in every ad. Twelve presets or your own photo. Cast your first creator.
- [AI Avatar Video Generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-avatar-video-generator): Turn a portrait and a 35-word script into a lip-synced talking avatar video, 3 to 15 seconds at 1080 x 1920. Three models. Make your first clip.
- [AI Product Video Generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-product-video-generator): Make AI product videos from one image: a creator holds your exact product, an 8-second animation, or a hook plus demo in 9:16. Make your first one.

## What is an AI influencer generator?

It is two tools in sequence. First you build a creator. Then you make videos with that creator, as many as the campaign needs.

The creator is not a one-off image. It is saved with three things attached:

- **A name**, so you can tell your creators apart when you have six.
- **A 9:16 portrait**, which is the face every later video is built from.
- **A voice**, which stays the same across every talking clip.

That persistence is the difference between an AI creator and a stock image. A face you cannot reproduce next week is a photo. A saved portrait with a saved voice is a creator you can cast in twelve ads.

Everything renders vertical and short, because this is ad creative for a phone feed. There is no long-form and no 16:9.

Open [the creator builder](https://www.makeviral.ai/influencer) to start, or read [UGC ads by industry](https://www.makeviral.ai/ugc-ads) to see what other categories put in the script first.

## How do you build the creator?

Three ways in, and they differ by how much control you want over the face.

1. **Pick one of 12 presets.** The fastest route, and the right one for a first test. Each preset is a ready creator type you can shoot with immediately.
2. **Write a description.** Age, build, hair, clothing, setting, mood. This is where you cast deliberately rather than picking the face you personally like.
3. **Upload a face photo.** Use a face you have the rights to use: your own, a team member's with their permission, or a licensed image. Do not upload a stranger, a customer or a public figure.

The portrait is generated at 9:16 and costs **2 credits on Nano Banana 2** or **1 credit on Z-Image**. That is the whole cost of casting.

Spend the extra credit on Nano Banana 2 when the face is the subject of the ad, which it usually is. Take the 1-credit Z-Image portrait for concept tests, while you are still deciding what kind of person should sell this thing.

The [AI photo generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/ai-photo-generator) covers both models in more detail, including what a reference image changes. For the creator-first route, start at the [AI UGC creator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-ugc-creator).

## Which video mode do you need?

Three modes, and each one answers a different ad problem.

| Mode | What you get | Credits | Use it for |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Product in hand | A still of your creator holding the product you uploaded | 2 | Static ad creative, thumbnails, a first frame |
| Product in hand, animated | The same still, moving for 8 seconds at 720p | 6 more | A short product beat with no speech |
| Talking | A clip lip-synced to your script, in the creator's voice | From 1 credit per second | The ad itself: hooks, pitches, objections |
| Hook plus demo | An 8-second talking hook joined to a demo clip, optional word captions | 2 for the join | Ads where the product must be seen doing the thing |

**Product in hand** is the cheapest mode here and often the most useful. Two credits puts your uploaded product into the creator's hands as a still. Animate it for 6 more and you have an 8-second beat at 720p with no script to write. That route lives at the [AI product video generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-product-video-generator).

**Talking** is the mode people come for. Write a script, pick the voice, and the clip is lip-synced to it, charged on the real length of the audio rather than on a slider you set.

**Hook plus demo** solves the ad that talking alone cannot: a creator says the hook, then the viewer sees the product working.

## What does a talking ad cost?

Talking video is priced per second of speech, on the real audio length. A script that reads in 11 seconds costs 11 seconds, not the 15 you hoped for.

| Model | Resolution | Per second | An 8-second clip | A 15-second clip |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| InfiniteTalk | 480p | 1 credit | 8 credits | 15 credits |
| Kling Avatar | 720p | 2 credits | 16 credits | 30 credits |
| Kling Avatar Pro | 1080p | 4 credits | 32 credits | 60 credits |

A talking clip runs from 3 seconds to 15 seconds, so 15 is the longest single take.

**The worked example.** One 15-second talking ad on Kling Avatar 720p:

| Line item | Credits |
| --- | --- |
| Creator portrait, Nano Banana 2, paid once | 2 |
| 15 seconds of talking at 2 credits per second | 30 |
| Total for the first ad | 32 |

The video alone is 30 credits: about **$2.14** on the $49.99 plan for 700 credits, and about **$2.00** on the $199.99 plan for 3,000. The portrait adds 2 credits once, not per ad, so the second ad with that creator is 30 credits flat.

Pick the model by where the ad runs. InfiniteTalk at 480p is for testing whether the words work. Kling Avatar at 720p is the working default for a feed. Kling Avatar Pro at 1080p is for a placement that rewards the resolution, at double the cost. See [pricing](https://www.makeviral.ai/pricing) for what each plan covers. New accounts start with zero credits. Cancel anytime, 14-day refund window on unused credits.

## Why keep one creator for the whole campaign?

A new face per ad throws away the only compounding asset in the set.

When the same creator appears in ad after ad, the third ad does work the first two paid for. The viewer has seen this person, and your ads look like one brand instead of five unrelated clips. It also makes your testing legible: when the face is constant, a difference in results is a difference in the script.

Cast by buyer, not by taste. The question is never which face you like. It is who your buyer already believes about this product.

| You sell | Cast someone who reads as | Not |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Skincare | The person with the outcome, same age bracket as the buyer | A model with no visible problem |
| Supplements | A believable user mid-routine | A physique the buyer cannot picture reaching |
| A mobile app | Someone the buyer's age holding a phone naturally | A studio presenter |
| A SaaS tool | Someone who looks like they do that job | A generic office actor |

Build two creators and keep them: one who reads as a peer, one who reads as slightly ahead of the buyer. Those two cover most angles, and each portrait costs 1 or 2 credits once. Casting notes by category live in [UGC ads by industry](https://www.makeviral.ai/ugc-ads), including [skincare](https://www.makeviral.ai/ugc-ads/skincare), [supplements](https://www.makeviral.ai/ugc-ads/supplements), [mobile apps](https://www.makeviral.ai/ugc-ads/mobile-apps) and [SaaS](https://www.makeviral.ai/ugc-ads/saas).

## How do you build a 30-second ad from 15-second clips?

A talking take stops at 15 seconds. Longer ads get assembled, not generated.

The straightforward build:

1. **Write the ad as two beats.** Beat one is the hook and the problem, 12 to 15 seconds. Beat two is the proof and the offer, another 12 to 15.
2. **Render each beat as its own talking clip** with the same creator and voice, so the face and the sound match across the cut.
3. **Join them** in whatever editor you already use. A hard cut between two takes of the same person reads as normal edited content, not as a mistake.

Or use the built-in route: **hook plus demo**. An 8-second talking hook joined to a demo clip, with optional word captions, for 2 credits on top of the clips. That covers the structure where a person says the promise and the product then shows it.

Cost check on the two-beat build at 720p: 15 seconds plus 15 seconds is 60 credits, about $4.28 on the $49.99 plan. The same 30 seconds on InfiniteTalk at 480p is 30 credits, which is why script testing belongs there.

Build the 30-second version only when the 15-second version already works. Start either build from the [AI UGC ad generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-ugc-ad-generator) or the [AI avatar video generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/tools/ai-avatar-video-generator).

## An AI creator is not a real customer

This is the part of the surface that can get you in trouble, so it gets its own section.

The creator you build did not buy your product, did not use it and has no opinion about it. Everything they say is copy you wrote. Three rules follow:

- **Write a pitch, not a testimonial.** "Here is what this does and who it is for" is a claim you can support. "I used this for three weeks and my skin cleared up" is a story about a person who does not exist.
- **Do not invent results.** No numbers, no before and after, no timeline you cannot evidence for a real user. A generated face saying a made-up outcome is a false claim wearing a person.
- **Do not use a real person's likeness without permission.** That includes customers, employees who have not agreed, and anyone recognizable.

On disclosure: the rules for labeling synthetic or AI-generated people in ads differ by platform and by country, and they change. Check the current policies of the platform you buy on, and the advertising rules in the market you sell into, before the ad runs. This page states none of them as fact, because we have not verified them today.

The same applies to organic posts. A creator account run by an AI persona is fine when it is presented as one, and a problem when it is presented as a person's real life.

## What the AI influencer generator does not do

The surface makes creators and clips. Everything downstream is yours.

- **No posting, no scheduling, no connected accounts.** You download the file and upload it yourself.
- **No ad account integration.** Nothing flows into Meta, TikTok or Google Ads, and there is no creative library sync.
- **No analytics.** Which creator won, which script won and what it cost per purchase live in your ad platform.
- **No API and no bulk generation.** One creator and one clip at a time in the browser.
- **No long-form and no 16:9.** Everything is vertical and short, with a 15-second ceiling on a single talking take.
- **No voice cloning of a real person you do not have rights to**, and no likeness of a public figure.
- **No editor.** There is no timeline. The hook plus demo join is the only stitching built in.

If a chat ad would do the job without a face, the [AI ad generator](https://www.makeviral.ai/ai-ad-generator) is 10 credits an ad.

## What is included

- **A creator you can reuse.** Each creator keeps a name, a 9:16 portrait and a voice, so the same face and sound carry across an entire campaign.
- **Three ways to cast.** Pick one of 12 presets, write your own description, or upload a face photo you have the rights to use.
- **Your product in their hand.** Upload the product and get a still of the creator holding it for 2 credits, then animate 8 seconds at 720p for 6 more.
- **Lip-synced talking clips.** Write a script and pick a voice. Clips run 3 to 15 seconds and are charged on the real audio length, from 1 credit a second.
- **Hook joined to a demo.** Attach an 8-second talking hook to a demo clip with optional word captions. The join costs 2 credits.

## From idea to finished file

1. **Build the creator.** Choose a preset, write a description or upload a face. The 9:16 portrait costs 2 credits on Nano Banana 2 or 1 on Z-Image.
2. **Pick the mode.** Product in hand for a still, talking for a lip-synced script, or hook plus demo when the product has to be seen working.
3. **Render and download.** Talking clips bill per second of real audio, from 1 credit at 480p to 4 at 1080p. You upload the file to your ad account yourself.

## AI Influencer Generator questions

### What is an AI influencer generator?

It is a tool that builds a reusable AI creator and then films with it. You cast the creator from a preset, a written description or a face photo, and the saved name, portrait and voice carry into every later video: a product-in-hand still, a lip-synced talking clip, or a hook joined to a demo.

### How much does a 15-second AI UGC ad cost?

Thirty credits on Kling Avatar at 720p, which bills 2 credits per second of speech. That is about $2.14 on the $49.99 plan for 700 credits and about $2.00 on the $199.99 plan for 3,000. The creator portrait adds 2 credits once, so the next ad with that creator is 30 credits.

### How long can a talking video be?

A single take runs from 3 seconds to 15 seconds, charged on the real length of your audio rather than a setting. For a 30-second ad, render two takes with the same creator and voice and join them, or use the built-in hook plus demo route for 2 credits.

### Can I upload my own face or my product?

Yes to both, with limits. Upload a face you have the rights to use: your own, a colleague's with permission, or a licensed image, never a stranger or a public figure. Upload your product and the creator holds it in a still for 2 credits, or animated for 8 seconds at 720p for 6 more.

### Which talking model should I pick?

InfiniteTalk at 480p costs 1 credit per second and is for testing whether a script works. Kling Avatar at 720p costs 2 and is the working default for a feed placement. Kling Avatar Pro at 1080p costs 4, so use it only where the resolution earns the doubled price.

### Do I have to disclose that the creator is AI?

Rules for labeling synthetic people in ads vary by platform and by country, and they change. Check the current policies of the platform you buy on and the advertising rules in your market before the ad runs. This page states no specific rule as fact because we have not verified one today.

### Can an AI creator give a testimonial?

No, and this matters. The creator never used your product, so anything framed as personal experience is fiction presented as evidence. Write a pitch instead: what the product does, who it is for, what it costs. Keep invented results, timelines and before-and-after claims out of the script.

### Should I use a different creator for each ad?

Usually not. One creator across a campaign compounds recognition and makes your tests readable, because a constant face means the script is the only variable. Build two or three creators at 1 or 2 credits each and cast by who your buyer believes, not by which face you prefer.
