Look at these ads.
They're made with 100% AI.
And they're absolutely pricking.
There's people doing 100K a month, a million dollars a month or more using amazing winning
AI ads.
So I hit up my friend Roman and I asked him if he'd be willing to come on the pod to share
how people are making millions of dollars a month with winning AI ads.
And to give us the tips and tricks to actually how to do this thing.
Like how to actually get the most out of the money.
these platforms. So, Raman, welcome to the pod. I appreciate you coming on. By the end of this episode,
what are people going to learn? Yeah, so thank you for having me. We created one of the leading
softwares in AI Ad Generation. We launched it 18 months ago since we grew through 7 million
in annual recurring revenue. So growing this past, we saw so many examples of people crushing it
using AI to create ads.
So today I'm going to share the best techniques that they are using
and some cool examples of people who are crushing it using AI.
So today you are going to be able to market any business using AI
with the best platform on the market to do that.
All right. Let's get into it.
Awesome. Let's do it.
Okay, so we are now in Arcads, AI,
and the way the platform works is,
quite straightforward. So we have this text box right here where you can input a script and describe
what you want your AI actor to say AI UGC user generated content. So you can go here, type your
script. So for this example, I was working on a script for Jolingo, the language learning app that everyone
knows. So I typed this script right here. And by the way, to write the script, I use this tool that
we have built internally, the hook generator. It's basically a tool.
that uses clothes in the background to generate cool scripts and cool hooks using AI.
Basically, all you need to do is describe your products on dual-ling language,
learning.
You describe your products.
I'm happy that this exists, right?
Because a big part of what makes a winning AI ad or actually a winning ad in general is how good the hook is, right?
100%. I would say like everyone focuses on like the written hook. So this is like probably 50% of the
result. And also a super important thing is like the visual hook. What do we see in the first second?
And we'll talk about that in the future of this video because you can also with AI create some
crazy stuff to hook people as attention very early on. They decide to scroll on an ad in like a
millisecond. Right. So you need to hook that, hook them even visually before they listen
to the beginning of the script.
But with this tool, you can generate the first sentence.
And I think it generates very good hooks because it was trained on so many hooks that we
had in our database.
Why did most people give up on learning a new language?
I think it's a very, very good hook.
So you can save multiple ones, save the ones you really like, delete the ones you don't like,
and just start making a collection of hooks right here.
And then you can just copy paste them all and put them into...
a Google sheet.
Then once you have your hook,
and I actually use the hook generator
to get this one that I really like.
True fact,
most people never stick with learning a new language.
Once I got that,
I just wrote the rest of the script
using code as well.
And I got this script right here
that you can then use with an AI actor.
So we have this library of now over a thousand
AI actors that you can use
where you can use filters
to just find the perfect AI actor for your needs.
So you can filter on the gender,
obviously the age.
and some cool situations like this,
you know, when you are doing these UGC content,
so for the audience,
UGC user generated content,
it's like content where there is someone talking to the camera.
When you do this type of content,
you will always want to have a specific type of creators
promote your video and they will be doing something specific.
So I don't know, if you have an idea for a podcast ad
where you want people to be in a studio,
a nice setup, where they talk about your product in a nice configuration,
you can just like select the podcast.
podcast filter. If you have, for example, I saw on your website the ID browser that you had
this idea for pregnant women and this trend that was growing, maybe you have a product that
target pregnant women and you want to have someone who is pregnant in your video. Or maybe you
want to have a funny, like skit style interview where someone is talking from the side, like if they
are talking to a friend. We got all sorts of features that you can use. If you have a fitness product,
maybe you might want to have people in the gym.
You can play with these filters or even with accessories that they have.
If you want them to have, let's say, a laptop, for example,
you can use that filter and you will only see AI avatars talking next to a laptop.
You can select the emotions and even the skin tone of the AI actor.
And the beauty of AI is now instead of just selecting one person to talk in your video,
you can just generate five variations.
And our most successful customers,
and that's really the first tip I really want to share with your audience.
Our most successful customers,
they really go crazy about testing.
They test the hooks or every single script that they do
because now with AI in a couple of minutes,
they can generate so many variations.
They will test different actors, different hoops, different situations,
and really the results can be completely different when they do that properly.
So, yeah, you will select an actor.
You can see the preview of the actor before you generate.
And then you can tweak the audience.
We'll see all the details of like how we can optimize the results in a minute.
But I don't click the audio.
Click generate, wait a couple of seconds and I already have these generate
video that was generated with the script for Geolingo and you get a result like this.
Here you go.
Now you get your video and we'll talk about that as well if you want Greg,
but you can then like edit it, remove the background, show your app.
And most of all, like test a lot of different versions of the exact same
that. Sam Altman, the co-founder of OpenAI, just said that it is the era of the idea guy,
and he is not wrong. I think that right now is an incredible time to be building a startup,
and if you listen to this podcast, chances are you think so too. Now, I think that you can look at
trends to basically figure out what are the startup ideas you should be building. So that's
exactly why I built Idea Browser.com. Every single day, you're going to get a free startup idea
in your inbox and it's all backed by high quality data trends.
How we do it, people always ask.
We use AI agents to go and search,
what are people looking for and what are they screaming for
in terms of products that you should be building?
And then we hand it on a silver platter for you to go check out.
We do have a few paid plans that take it to the next level,
give you more ideas, give you more AI agents
and more, almost like a chat gvety for ideas with it.
But you can start for free, ideabrowser.com.
And if you're listening to this, I highly recommend it.
So I'm seeing a trend right now with two types of AI ads.
And I think about it, you know, from a spectrum.
On one side of the spectrum, you have extremely realistic ad.
And on the other side of the spectrum, you have unrealistic,
scroll stopping ads.
And what I mean by that is like this morning,
I saw a gorilla, a talking gorilla,
V-O-3 ad, I think.
There's also like the Star Wars.
I don't know if you saw like the Star Wars selfie ads.
So what you're saying, Roman, is basically sometimes it makes sense to,
well, it makes sense to like the more the better
because you're kind of doing R&D to find the winning ad
that can get you the, you know, your cact-to-LTV ratio in the plays.
But would you agree that it's helpful to have, you know,
if you're selling a pregnancy product, having, you know, maybe pregnancy,
you know, women as an actor, but also maybe some unrealistic, funny, you know,
other types of scroll-stopping videos and then sort of testing them to see what works?
100%.
So before creating our cards, I was actually growing a mobile app,
studio and all I was doing was testing a ton of ads every day. It was before the age of AI.
But really the two criteria for us to succeed was the creative volume. So how many new creatives
did we produce every single week? That was the number one criteria. And the second one was the
creative diversity. And the diversity is like which type of creative do you test? Because if you only test,
like talking actors, for example, like these ones, or if you only test, um,
Borilla video, at some point your audience will like kind of fatigue.
And there is this concept called creative fatigue in the world of paid advertising.
And people will just stop engaging.
So yeah, creative diversity is super important.
And that's actually our vision at arcads.
We think like AI is completely going to transform the way marketing teams create content.
And we think that there is going to be one platform where marketers create all sort of content and optimize that for the
results. So we have, for example, you mentioned the gorilla example. We have a V-O-3 integration
where you can actually generate those guerrilla videos and you can actually do more. I'm going
to show you that in a second. So to your point, you need to be testing both. You need to
be testing like real UGC style videos, more creative stuff, and even other types of videos that I can
show you in the in the demo if you want. And that being said, there are certain niches where we see very
good results for some reason with AI UGC and for some reason it's like just performing better in
these niches. I can show you some examples if you want of successful customers who are using
archives and getting like really, really good results. And then I can show you how you can use the
arcads to also regenerate those less realistic videos like the Lego one that we see here.
I'm going to show you in a minute as well. Okay. Yeah, one example of that is one of our clients
Codeway. So it's a mobile app studio. They own multiple apps. And they launched this app,
as you can see here, on September, 2024. So actually less than 12 months ago. And last
months, they made a million in revenue. So that's just the, by the way, the iOS app. They also
have an Android app. So they make in total like more than 15 million in revenue with this app. And
that's all public data, by the way. And when you look at their ads in the Facebook ads
libraries, the Facebook ads library, it is this public library where you can see the ads of
any advertiser. You will see two things. One, they test a ton of new ads every week. So,
if you look at the total result, they have 500 active ads, because we filtered on an ad active.
Just yesterday, they started a new ad. So if you just filter on like, literally yesterday,
we are recording on July 22. They were testing like maybe five, 10 ads that we can see right here
for this single app and they have multiple apps.
And the thing that is interesting about this page is they are testing a ton of ads,
but all of them are AI.
This app was launched like literally nine months ago.
And every single ad that they tested was AI generated using arcads.
And that's the whole marketing strategies that they had for this app.
They basically created ads using arc ads.
And I can show you one of the ads that was bringing the most results.
And it's a very realistic ads.
But to your point, they test.
some like a realistic concept,
but they also test this like robot style video ads
where there is someone talking.
And by the way, as you can see,
they localize everything in every language,
which is also one of the nice things about AI.
You can now, instead of just targeting one geo,
if you want to have like,
I don't know even what language it is,
but if you want to have like those like 2050 languages in your ads
on German, English, Russian, etc.
It will be a nightmare to find creators in every single country.
with AI, you can just like do that in every single country super easily. So yeah, I use this tool
for PP ads to track impressions of ads. And again, that's public data. And as you can see,
this ad right here had 10 million impressions. That was the most viral ad that they had. And they
combined the two worlds. They had like this realistic AI UGC at the bottom created with Arcad. And
they combined that with a less realistic video. And they basically made a video about this person
trying to learn a new language.
So, yeah, again, if you wanted to have, like,
someone with a Spanish accent,
talking and learning English,
it would, like, be super time-consuming to produce that.
They literally produce that in a couple of seconds and using AI.
And by the way, I can show you very quickly how you can do this kind of stuff,
but I'll pause here in case you have any question.
Now, dude, this is keep going.
Like, this is the sauce that I need.
Perfect.
So, yeah.
So when you have a script, I just click on remix right here.
What this does is it will put the script in the model right here to let me just reuse the same script.
And maybe I will get very good result with this ad.
So I want to try new variations of this ad.
I want to change maybe the hook.
I want to add additional actors or I want to change the accent.
And you can do that now with Arkansas right here because you can go to the voiceover.
And you can do two things.
You can either use one of our existing voices in our library.
So let's say you want to have a Spanish accent right here.
You will be able to say Spanish.
You will have all of these Spanish voices that we had.
And you can even control the accent of this voice.
Maybe you want to do someone with a Spanish accent,
but from Latin America to target the Latin Americans in the US.
You'll be able to do that.
Or if you don't find the perfect voice that you want in the library,
you can also connect with your 11 labs account,
right here and create your own voices using 11 labs,
and then have our AI actors use the same voices in our cats.
And that's a super powerful way to create ads.
Maybe I can show you some other examples of people who are getting
the crazy results with AI.
And I'm going to show you in a minute how we can do those more creative
type of ads like we see right here.
But some other cool examples that I saw recently where I saw it like niche blowing up of micro learning.
So basically those are apps where you can learn about anything in a couple of minutes.
They summarize books, et cetera.
And they create like tutorials for people to learn about a new topic.
And this ad right here.
So these are the AI actor that we see in the background right here was again generated with our cards.
it has like 100,000 I likes.
No one is like talking about the fact that it's AI in the comments.
Like it looks like people are really engaging with the, with the content.
Again, great example of a theme that's scaled super, super strongly using AI.
And it was actually a whole trend and a whole new market that was creating,
created around micro learning.
Because if you go back to the ad library again,
and you search for the keyword mindful learning,
you will find a ton of apps and websites
that are advertising with AI-generated actors
and all of these guys are AI-right-here,
the one at the top and the run right here.
All of these are AI-generated with Arkansas.
This guy is in our archives library,
and people are getting crazy results in this niche
because now they are able to have someone
being the face of what they're in.
they want to convey in the ad.
And again, this was created with arcads.
And yeah, if you Google for micro learning, you will see in the Facebook ad library,
so many examples of people crushing it with AI actors.
So again, like it's, as you can see, they all test a ton of ads.
So if we look at this one, for example, Wiser.
They didn't go and go to Arcad and just like made this one cool ad.
They have like 140 ads active again on July 21.
Yesterday, they tested at least five new ads.
Again, these people are crazy about testing iterations.
And when they find something that sticks,
they make a ton of different iterations using AI.
So I just want to hammer home one really important point.
So in the past, you would never create a mobile app around microlearning.
Why?
Because it cost you $2 million to build an app around microlearning.
learning and, you know, the total addressable market might be $10 million a year, $15 million
a year for that particular niche. Now with vibe coding, it's way cheaper to actually go and
create these, you know, microsas or niche apps. So it opens up a huge opportunity for, you know,
people listening to actually go and, you know, build these like niche apps. At the same time, now
you don't need to hire an agency and spend hundreds of thousand dollars a month,
you can actually use like arc ads and some of these tools to actually, you know,
get to a winning ad.
And like that history ad that you showed like with the guy, like he looked like a,
he looked like my history teacher, you know, like I think one of the reasons why I worked
is like it felt like my history teacher from high school was, you know, giving, you know,
doing this ad and I had no idea that it was AI. And, you know, I just think that it's just
interesting because what's going through my mind and I'm just taking furious notes is like,
what are what are niches that look small that I can actually go and create an app for relatively
not a lot of money? And at the same time, what is an area where people are not doing AI
ads that I can go and kind of win the market and just spend money because ultimately,
you know, if I can create a vending machine where I put in a dollar and a dollar 50 comes out,
then I'm fine putting $10 or $100 or $1,000 or $1,000 because I'm, you know,
I've built a vending machine.
A thousand percent.
So, you know, it's funny because I recently stumbled upon these 18 years old kids who
says he's making like 200k per month. And all he does is he sells services to traditional
businesses and help them implement AI to promote their business. So it's true for mobile apps.
But it's also very true for more traditional business. And so he made this video that like that's
crazy engagement like 150K views about how he used in Arcad to basically promote his own services. So he
creates ads in this example right here, for example, he created an ad for real estate agents,
and he told them, hey guys, I sells AI services. So he created the ads with arcads to promote
his own agency. He obviously selected like male 50 years old, which are not the typical
UGC creators. If you were to try to find on TikTok someone like this and convince them to make
an ad for yours like a service business, it might be quite time consuming to find the right.
person. But because we know like senior people are such in demand, we created a lot of like
models for AI UGC 50 plus in Arcads. So he created these ads in Arcads to promote his services.
He gets people to book a call for five. He shows everything in the video. You guys should check it
out. It's crazy. But he gets leads for his services for like $10. And then he sell them services where he
say them, okay, I'm going to get new business to you,
whether real estate business or painting business or solar panel business.
And then when he sell that, he will use arcads to create the ads for them.
And he explained the whole system in this YouTube video.
And I think it's a crazy opportunity because, like,
people don't really know yet that much about this in these industries.
Cool.
I'll include that video in the show notes for people who
want to watch that. What else
should we cover today? Yeah, maybe
one last example of someone who is
crushing it with
arcads. So there is a guy
who created this like e-com
product where it's a book where your
dad can answer a couple of questions
and
basically tell
his story so that you can have
like some good memories
of them. And
he was making ads using
arcads. Again, he needed to have like
grandpa talking in a nice setup.
That's cool, probably be very hard to get without AI.
And look at this at like 200,000 likes.
That's probably got like a couple of millions of views on this one single ad.
Love these.
People are like commenting super nice stuff.
And again, AI generate.
So yeah, just wanted to mention like it works very well for apps.
It was very well for services, but it also works for e-com.
And now maybe I can go back.
to arc ads and show you more advanced stuff that people can do to create these ads.
Yeah.
But yeah.
I mean, just by the way, on this, I'm almost, I'm pretty sure I saw this ad on TikTok.
I saw this as an ad on TikTok.
So if you create like this, this is so good that it could be organic content, but it can
also be an ad.
So that's another thing is like you can use ads as organic content too.
Like, why not, right?
100%.
Yeah.
we have so many of our customers crushing it on TikTok shop.
So, you know, on TikTok, now you can be paid to create content to promote other products.
And that's a very good way to kickstart when you don't have too much cash flow because
you don't even need to pay for the TikTok ads budget.
All you need is make good content.
And it's probably the best way to learn how to make good content because on Facebook ads,
if you put budgets, you will have views.
But on TikTok, if your video is not good, you would get like literally 200 views maximum.
So it's probably the best way and the cheapest way to learn how to create good content.
And actually some of our most active customers, they created those TikTok accounts.
And those are literally 18 years old.
They created these TikTok accounts where they create content using AI.
And some of them are really crushing it.
I might have an example somewhere.
Let me see if I can find this one.
Yeah.
So we have this like kids in Latin America who is making TikTok videos organically, purely.
So no paid marketing at all.
And so he starts with like kind of a very shocking hook about the news.
He's talking about the news like the fires in California.
And so yeah, this guy was generated with Alcas for the non-Spanish speakers.
So basically he talks about the news.
And then he introduced a startup where.
he has an affiliate link through the TikTok shop affiliate platform to promote the product
and that he basically took content from the brand that they went to Shark Tank and he combined
those into a video and he made 1.1 million views purely organically and I think he made like
more than 30K from this one video that was like completely blowing up. So yeah, organic is a very good
Obviously, most of our users do paid ads because we focus on companies and mostly they have budget and they can go and spend on paid platforms.
But you can also create this kind of content using markets.
There's two things I want to cover that's important for me to cover before we go, which is I didn't know that you can use V-O-3 within Arcad.
So I'd love to understand how you can actually do that.
And the last thing I want to cover is, you know, this, I want to, I'm like, the era I'm in is like the vibe marketing era and like how do you automate as much as this as possible.
So I'd love for you to tell me the best ways that I can automate some of my ads, maybe using tools like gum loop and stuff like that.
100%. Yeah. Let's do. Let's do that. So by the way, one of the best way to create a winning ad is to copy something that's already get.
in good results.
So we are going to show you exactly how you can automate that with tools like
GameLoop and A10, etc.
But you can also do it in a more manual way if you're not that technical.
We have this feature called Speech to Speech where you can go and download an existing
video from a competitor.
So for example, Dishred is this like massive brand that is pending hundreds of millions
in paid marketing and making hundreds of millions in revenue creating ads.
and they had this ad where the hook is very powerful.
I think the voice is very good in the hook.
So you can basically go here and download this ad with a Chrome extension like ad scan.
Upload this ad as the audio in arcads.
So instead of selecting text to speech, you can do speech to speech.
And the AI voice will talk in the exact same way as the audio you upload,
but with the actors that you have selected.
And the result is quite impressive.
So a lot of people complain that AI sometimes is like
the voice is not perfect. That's a very good way to actually
improve the voice using speech to speech and actually getting
people to read the same way a script that they have
identified doing well.
Something I also important I wanted to show like,
you know, we always talk about the hook, like the first sentence of the script,
but what's very important as well is the visual hook,
you know, in a lot of top ads
you will see something quite impressive
visually at the beginning of the video
that will catch your attention.
This red again is pretty good at that.
So they made this ad where there is like basically like
they recorded like fake fat to show visually
what it looks like to have like I don't know 20 pounds of fat.
And they had this actor.
They had to like find a way to get this like brain like
in the studio
and they had to generate that
and it was probably very time consuming
to get that for the video.
With Arcad,
then you can now also create your own AI actor
from a prompt.
So you can basically say,
I want to have someone with a fitness
influencers and is holding brain-like fat models.
And I just did that right here
with our actor-creator generator,
actor-generator.
And I generated the exact same model fully from AI using a prompt.
And now I can have her say, you want to lose weight?
This is what like 20 pounds of fat look like.
And she can be talking to the camera and hook people visually.
So that's definitely something I would recommend people doing.
You can also just go to another AI tool and generate an image of someone you think looks really well,
looks really good.
and create your own custom avatar from an image that you upload from midjorn.
So for example, this one that you see right here, the one in the podcast,
I generated it from a midjornie.
So I generated an image of someone looking like that in midjourney.
And then I brought that into orchards and I generated an AI actor from this image.
And by the way, again, this was inspired from BFred.
I saw this ad.
They were running for quite a long time.
So I assumed it was doing well.
and basically I recreated
I screenshot did this
I sent that to Clod or chat GPT
and I asked them
describe what you see in the video
that gave me a prompt
I used it as a prompt to me journey
and then I uploaded the image
into arcads to create my own
AI actor instead of using one of the
actors in the library that was available
and obviously this actor is only available
on my account. You can do like super creative
concepts using that
and that's a very efficient
way to use the platform. But I'm coming back
to your point for V-O-3.
You probably saw this trend on Twitter
where you can do unboxing videos
using V-O-3.
And yeah, I basically just like
use this prompt with our
scenes feature that's using V-O-3 in the background
and recreated this like unboxing video.
And then I thought, okay, what if I could do this for
Lego instead of IKEA?
Because, you know, IKEA, it's interesting.
It's an interesting concept for IKEA because at IKEA, you create stuff.
And Lego is also somewhere where you create stuff.
So I made this video right here using the same prompt, basically, but for Lego.
And then here you go.
You get a video of a bunch of Legos being built.
But then I thought, okay, it would be nicer if it was in a nicer room, like a kid's room, actually.
So I just clicked remix right here.
It added the prompt automatically to the bar here.
And I changed a little bit the description.
to have the video be in a kid's room.
And here you go.
The limitation of V-O-3 is, you know,
you get those eight-second videos, which are nice.
But when you want to do a marketing campaign,
you want a little bit more than that.
You might want to have something happening
after the end of this video.
And we recently released this feature called Extent.
So basically what it does is it lets you select a frame in the video,
so the frame where you want the next video to start.
and uses that as the starting point for new videos that's going to be generated.
And that's kind of insane because now once you have these videos that you like,
you can just keep the exact same consistency and generate the rest of the video.
What happens after that in the video?
And you can have, okay, a kid that was actually hidden right here, join the scene,
and start playing with the Lego.
And then you can do it again, click extend again.
And maybe you want his little sister to join the video.
and then you can again extend the video
and the little sister is joining the frame
with perfect consistency.
So that's the same boy right here.
And now you have those three eight second videos
that you can combine together
and make a full video production
with perfect consistency.
Insanity.
Yeah, that's really, really good.
Do you want me to talk about like automation?
I do because it's a bit of a block
box for me.
Like, I've been playing with it, but I'm just, I just, yeah, I want to hear from, you know,
from you just like the best practices around automation.
Yeah, 100%.
So I think you got the founder of Gamlup on the podcast a couple of weeks ago.
I really like their team and their tool.
And I think he actually, in this video, he explained very well what is a good case for an
automation.
And automation is when you can clearly explain every single step of your process,
but it will be very time-consuming to repeat them.
So the way I think about automation for arcads is think about,
I think about all the repetitive stuff that I do when it comes to producing ads,
and I see if I can automate these.
And one of the most repetitive tasks of any marketer is to look for inspiration,
look at what the competitors are doing,
use that as an inspiration to create new content.
So I created this automation in GameLoop.
I can share my screen and show you where you can basically input a keyword.
So for us, for example, I wanted to promote arcads.
So create content about AIUGC and about arcads on TikTok.
So I created this node right here that I connected to a TikTok downloader.
that will basically take all the videos that were posted on TikTok about this keyword through the TikTok API,
downloaded the videos, transcribe them.
So if there is someone talking in the video, it gets what's being said in the videos.
And then brings that automatically to chat VPT with a quick description of my product.
So my product is, which is linked to this node right here where I describe Arcads AI Ads Maker.
So my product is Arcads and AI ad maker.
Here is a very good transcript of a TikTok video.
So this is the TikTok video that it scraped from the TikTok API.
Write a similar script about my product.
Make sure to stick to the writing style to keep it very similar to the transcripts I
provided, but make it about my product.
And then, and that's the beauty of AI automation,
I connected it to an Arcad node.
So if you search for AICD's node,
AI video in Gumloop, you will see that you have arcads as one of the nodes that you can connect.
And it will basically generate the script that is inspired from all the videos that have been
posted on TikTok and that's ranked well on TikTok because the API will automatically search for
the highest view videos. And it will generate videos that will be inspired from winning videos automatically
for me. That's one very good example. I have a ton of use cases and I can show you more.
That's one very good example of how you can use Alcad's API, connect with external sources of data
to automatically produce winning ads. And that's the advanced mode of AI video generation,
but that's very powerful. Dude, can you show me more? Yeah, 100%. So I really like this one for TikTok
because I think on TikTok you'll find very good content, but I also made an equivalent for Reddit.
and I know you are a fan of Reddit.
I know you love Reddit.
So basically this one is a bit more complex.
The automation is a bit more complex.
So people can reach out if they want to talk about how to set this up on their own.
Basically, I created this AI agent with Gamlup again.
Sorry, can you make a full screen?
Yes.
Right, here you go.
So it will find the most popular posts on Reddit.
and it will add them to a Google sheet.
It will go to Arcad.
This was the previous user interface.
It will generate different videos.
And basically what it takes is it collects the most
goes to the most popular subreddit in your niche.
It collects the top questions.
It fills them to chat GPT,
generate scripts from that,
and it generates videos using archives.
So basically all you need is an inspiration.
For the previous example,
the inspiration was TikTok.
and AI to take this inspiration and rewrite it in a way that will be a good ad,
and then an API to generate the video, which is Alcat.
It's pretty much always like this.
Another example of that is scraping the ads library.
So in Gemloop, they have a node where the source of the data can be the Facebook ads library.
So you can actually download videos from your competitors from their Facebook
ad library, send that to a Google sheet, and then rewrite those ads using AI.
And that's also a very powerful way to automate ad creation.
You will find a lot of them on my Twitter account, if you want to see more examples of
that.
Maybe one last one.
So all of these I just showed you were about taking the transcript of an existing video
and rewriting the script to create.
a new video inspired from the script.
So basically what this will do is really,
it will complete the script of the talking actor.
So if we go back to arcads,
it will like complete this part of the box,
like the text box right here.
But sometimes you want to recreate a video
and what you need is not really a script.
You need a prompt.
Let's say you want to generate a video like this.
You want this description of what's happening.
You don't want the voiceover of the video, right?
and if you want to do that,
what you will need to analyze is not the transcript
of an existing video.
You will need to analyze the visual of an existing video.
And Gemini, you know, the Google AI API,
has lets you basically analyze existing videos
and tell you what's happening in the video.
Does that make sense?
Yeah, absolutely.
So you can basically go to the ad library of a competitor like this, send the video to Gemini.
And as Gemini, describe what you see in the video.
Describe what happens in these videos scene by scene.
And this will give you the prompt to generate with our V-O-3 integration, AI videos.
And yeah, let's say you need to have like basketball players.
You will need a prompt to say, I want to generate a basketball player.
And Gemina can give you this prompt, and then you can send that back to our scenes, mobile, and complete automatically this part of the script.
The crazy world we live in.
It is.
Yeah.
So many, every day I told to an archive's customers who is like making seven, eight figures using these AI ads.
And again, I learn about a new super creative stuff.
And sometimes the niche I hear about, you will be surprised how niche and how small they seem and how much money people are making.
I mean, I can give you other examples, but yeah, it's crazy how people are getting insane results with these ads.
Yeah, and I think it's worth noting that not everyone who's going to use a tool like Arcads is going to crush it, right?
And that's why I wanted to have you on the pod is you, you know, one of the strategies that you're using here is,
copy what works, maybe in a different niche, and then bring it to your own niche, and then
use all the tools advantages to get the most out of it to give your chance the highest likelihood
of success for the AI ad, right? Versus starting from a blank slate, trying to figure out,
okay, which ad do I want to create? What's the copy? It's just going to be a lot harder to do that,
and it's going to require, frankly, just more money to figure out what's working.
100%. Yeah, that's probably a very good way to start.
Obviously, there is a lot of money to be made by being the first one to come up with a very
original idea.
Yeah, it's much harder.
Yeah, totally.
And yeah, it is much harder.
But it is doable.
I don't want to say it's not doable.
And if you are the first one to come up with it, like there's huge advantages there.
That's true.
But, dude, I've been taking furious notes as you've been doing this.
So what I want to do, actually, is I'm going to, after this, I'm going to, you know, go through my notes.
I'm going to make my notes available for download for anyone who wants my notes for, you know, how to create winning AI ads.
We'll put the link in the show notes and it'll, Rafa or editor, maybe you can put it on the screen right now.
so people can go and download that.
My recommendation to people is they,
whether they believe in ads or not,
go and create some ads and maybe five ads,
10 ads, 15 ads,
and just get used to the tools.
Get used to the tools.
You've shown your whole AI stack of,
and stack, software stack for how to create winning ads.
Get used to these tools.
I'll include the tools.
in in the my notes for people to download.
You can go to arc ads.
Roman, can you provide me with a link?
Maybe like, or we'll put a link in the show notes
that people can go to try the product.
And get your hands dirty.
Like stop listening to us, you know?
Like don't listen to another tutorial about how to create winning at,
You know, just like get your hands dirty, play with it, learn, take notes, and iterate from there.
That's my recommendation to people.
Roman, I have one last ask for you.
The Gumloop workflows that you shared, they looked really pretty and they looked beautiful,
but I know that creating them takes time and trial and error.
Would you be willing to share those with me and I can include them in my notes, doc?
Yeah, of course, I will send you the links.
Okay, cool. So I'll put that in there for folks who want to, you know, be a bit more advanced and automate some of their AI ads. That'll be in there. That's the show. Thanks for listening. If this has been helpful, please comment and like on this YouTube video. That's how I know how to keep creating content for you. And also I read every single comment. And maybe Roman, maybe you can also, you know, check the comments, see what people are saying and reply to the most interesting ones.
Yeah, send me your videos, send what you want walking on. I'll check the comments.
Okay, cool. Thanks, man. I really appreciate you coming on and sharing some sauce. Also, by the way, Roman did, I don't know if people picked up on this. This might be the most important point of the whole podcast. He did call Claude Clod, Claude. And he does live in France where Claude originated from the name. So I'm not crazy, people. You are.
Yeah, my clone lovers to the comments.
I will check you.
Perfect.
Thanks, man.
