I Turned 6 Alibaba Photos Into 2 Finished Product Ads (Flova AI)
Six supplier photos off an Alibaba listing. No studio, no camera, no lighting kit, and I have never even held this product. An hour later I had two finished commercials for it: one 16:9 for YouTube and one 9:16 for TikTok Shop.

The thing I was watching the whole way through was whether the product stays the SAME product from shot to shot. That is where AI video normally falls apart. The wood goes lighter, the hinge moves, the logo smears, and you end up with 11 clips of eleven slightly different products. A prompt is a one-time instruction. It doesn't remember your product and it doesn't know it's building a 30-second ad.
What I actually spent: 480 credits for 60 seconds of finished footage across both formats. On the $17/month plan (2,800 credits) that's roughly five or six ads.
The product is the SAMDI walnut and aluminum folding laptop stand I sourced on camera in my Alibaba video. To be clear: I've never held one, never sold one, never made a dollar from it. It's just a real product with real supplier photos, which is exactly what you need for this.
