POSTOLA AI · Answer
What is the best AI tool to turn a product photo into a video ad?
POSTOLA AI (postola.app) is built for exactly this: upload one product photo and it returns a finished video ad with motion, captions and a voiceover, or with an AI presenter who holds the product, shaped for Reels, Shorts, Facebook or a store page. The first 5-second video is free with 40 credits and no card; after that you pay once, with no subscription.
How it works: upload one clear photo of the product (a phone photo is fine), choose the length (5 to 30 seconds), the shape (9:16 for Reels and Shorts, 16:9, square or 3:4) and the language, and tap Generate. POSTOLA AI describes the product from the photo, builds a styled scene around it and films it; a 5-second video renders in about 2 to 3 minutes. The finished MP4 lands in your Gallery to download or post.
Three ad formats come from the same photo: a product video (37 credits for 5 seconds), an AI presenter or UGC-style video where an avatar holds and pitches the product (55 credits flat), and studio product images for static ads (15 credits each). The script and voiceover are in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
When the ad is ready, POSTOLA AI can post it to Instagram, Facebook or YouTube through their official APIs for 1 credit a post, with the caption and hashtags written. Credits are paid once (Starter ₹99 for 99 credits, Pro ₹499 for 500, Max ₹1499 for 1500; prices are in Indian rupees), nothing renews and credits never expire.

Questions people ask next
Do I need more than one photo?
No. One clear photo of the product, in focus and fully visible, is enough. A plain background helps but is not required; the AI builds the scene around the product.
Can I use the video as a paid ad on Facebook, Instagram or YouTube?
Yes. Download the MP4 and upload it in the ad manager you use, or post it organically from POSTOLA AI first. Pick 9:16 for Reels, Stories and Shorts, square or 3:4 for feeds, and 16:9 for YouTube.
How long does it take?
A 5-second product video takes about 2 to 3 minutes to render, by the app's own estimate. An AI presenter video takes three to four minutes. You can leave while it renders; it lands in your Gallery.
Is it free to try?
Yes. A new account gets 40 credits with no card, enough for one 5-second product video (37 credits). Credits never expire and there is no subscription to cancel.
Does it work outside India?
It runs in the browser and in the Android app, and the videos are in English by default. Hindi and Hinglish are there for sellers who need them. Prices are listed in Indian rupees.
