If you still make UGC ads in the old way, you wait for creators to film and then edit, wasting time and money. Your competitors gain ground as you spend weeks on each project. AI now helps you create real, repeatable, low-cost UGC ads in minutes. Arcads is one tool that uses AI to shape UGC ads that work much better than the old method.
Here’s how AI-assisted UGC with Arcads can cut costs, save work, and bring ads that hold attention—and how you can start now.
Why Traditional UGC Production Falls Short
Making UGC ads by hand brings delays:
- You wait for influencers or freelancers to get products, film, and then edit.
- You must complete many rounds of changes to fix tone and message.
- You face costs that add up fast over a campaign.
Some brands who try AI ads still get robotic voices or flat actors that make viewers lose interest fast. Early seconds count. If an ad does not feel real within moments, viewers skip it.
Simple AI text-to-speech tools can produce stilted voices and odd pacing. Although AI gives you speed, many do not use the tools in the best way.
How Arcads Makes AI UGC Ads Work
Arcads uses AI to give you full control over how your ad looks, sounds, and feels. Tests show these features make ads feel human:
-
Wide Actor Library with Demographic Filters
Choose actors by gender, age, or scene (like an airport or snowy street). Find a fit for your audience in seconds, not hours. -
Speech-to-Speech Voice Mimicry
Record your voice as you read a script. The AI copies your voice pattern to make the ad sound real and engaging. -
Advanced Voice Customization
Adjust speed, emotion, and how the AI follows punctuation. This lets you match the voice to your brand style. -
Gesture Controls
Make AI actors do small actions such as taking off headphones or pointing at the screen. These moves add life and show product features without much extra work.
How to Create Effective AI UGC Ads with Arcads
- Start a New Project
Open Arcads and use the asset generation prompt. Pick talking actors, gesture clips, B-roll, or full scenes to match your idea. - Filter and Pick Your Actor
Use demographic filters to narrow down your actor. Find one who fits your audience. - Craft Your Script
Write a short, emotional script that shows your product’s best points. For example:
“I once dreaded cold days. Then I found Thermopac, a light heated jacket that kept me warm wherever I went.” - Adjust Voice Settings
• Set speech speed to a natural pace (around 1.0 for a calm tone).
• Lower stability (around 0.45) for natural voice shifts without being off-track.
• Keep tone similar to your script to stay on brand.
• Use a hint of style variation (about 0.1) so emotion feels just right. - Preview and Tweak
Always listen to a sample of the voice to check that it sounds natural. - Use Gestures to Animate Ads
Add simple gestures like pointing or waving to make the ad feel more alive. - Generate and Combine
Create clips of talking actors, gestures, and B-roll, then stitch them together into one smooth ad.
Why This Matters
• Speed: Work that took weeks now takes minutes. Try fresh ideas quickly.
• Cost: Use fewer paid creators or reshoots to drop your budget.
• Control: You no longer wait on others. You set tone, pace, and expression.
• Authenticity: Real-sounding voices and human gestures keep viewers watching.
• Scalability: Make many ads for different groups or platforms with little effort.
