What is a short-form AI video?
A short-form AI video is a vertical clip under about 30 seconds that uses AI-generated visuals, motion graphics and fast editing instead of filmed footage. It is designed to hook viewers in the first one to two seconds.
Brands use short-form AI videos to post consistently on TikTok, Reels and Shorts and to supply paid campaigns with a steady flow of new creative, without filming every week.

Get In TouchHow long should a short-form video be?
Most short-form videos perform best between 9 and 30 seconds. Under 15 seconds suits a single hook and payoff, while 20–30 seconds fits demos and listicles. Ad Engine Studio cuts each idea to the shortest length that still lands the message.
Can short-form AI videos be used as ads?
Yes. The same videos can run as TikTok Spark Ads, Meta Reels ads or YouTube Shorts ads. Ad Engine Studio checks every video against each platform's safe zones so captions and buttons don't overlap.
Do you post the videos for us?
No. Ad Engine Studio produces and delivers ready-to-post files with suggested captions and hashtags. Posting and community management stay with your team or agency.
How many short-form videos do we need per month?
Brands that grow on TikTok and Reels usually post 3–7 times a week. A monthly batch of 12–20 videos covers a steady schedule with room to test different hooks.

Ad Engine Studio prices short-form videos per batch based on the number of videos, their length and how much custom animation each needs. Send a brief through the contact page for a quote within one business day.
