Create Product Ads with More Control over the Final Creative
Media.io combines product understanding with selectable scenes, character options, prompts, and two video-generation modes so you can move from ecommerce assets to a usable ad creative without building the project from scratch.
Use Product Images, a Product URL, or Both
Bring in the product information you already have. Media.io can use uploaded product images together with a product URL to give the ad workflow more context about the item, its visuals, and its selling points.
✓ Upload product images from your device
✓ Add a product URL from supported ecommerce or app pages
✓ Combine product assets and page context in one workflow
Choose the Right Character for Model-Led Ads
When your ad concept needs a person, choose the source that fits the campaign instead of recreating the character setup every time.
✓ Choose from preset Characters
✓ Reuse a Character from your personal library
✓ Upload a reference image from your device
✓ Generate a new Character with AI
Start with Ad Presets, Then Customize with Prompts
Image Ads include quick scene presets for common ecommerce creative needs. Pick a preset for speed, or describe a different visual direction in your prompt when the campaign needs something more specific.
✓ Ecommerce Model Shot, Try-On Photo, Product Shot
✓ Product Beautifier, Lifestyle Scene, Flat Lay
✓ AD Reference for recreating the visual direction of a reference
✓ Custom prompts for scenes outside the preset list
Choose Auto Mode or Review the Script in Guided Mode
Video Ads offer two workflows with the same core output settings. Auto Mode is built for speed; Guided Mode adds a script checkpoint before the final video is generated.
✓ Auto Mode — add the product input, choose settings, and generate directly
✓ Guided Mode — review the generated script before final generation
✓ Up to 30 seconds and 1080p
✓ 12 mainstream languages for multilingual ad creation

When Does AI Product Ad Generation Work Best?
Clear product inputs give the AI more useful context. Use this guide to decide when a product URL is enough and when adding your own images, Character, or prompt can improve the creative direction.
| Product input | What to expect | Recommended action |
|---|---|---|
| Clear title, product images and detailed product page | Strong starting context | Start with the URL and refine the creative direction |
| Good URL but limited product photography | Product context is available, visual variety may be limited | Upload additional product images |
| Model-led fashion, beauty or lifestyle concept | The product alone may not define the person or look you want | Add a preset, saved, uploaded, or AI-generated Character |
| Creative direction outside the preset scenes | Preset choices may not match the campaign concept | Describe the scene, composition and style in your prompt |
| Video ad where wording matters | You may want to check the script before rendering | Choose Guided Mode and review the script first |
Review AI-generated ad content before publishing
AI can help turn product information into ad creative, but marketers should still verify product facts, pricing, claims, comparisons, testimonials, before/after statements, and platform requirements before publishing. Ad approval and campaign performance depend on the final creative, product category, landing page, account, targeting, and each platform's review process.
