YouTube Video Ad Maker — AI Ads for YouTube & Google

Create YouTube in-stream, in-feed and Shorts ads with AI — a hook written for the first five seconds, your real product on screen, a professional voiceover and captions, exported in 16:9 for YouTube and 9:16 for Shorts.

The first five seconds are the ad

A skippable in-stream ad gets five seconds before the Skip button appears, and most viewers are waiting for it. Whatever you want a viewer to remember has to happen in those five seconds: the problem, the product and the brand. Google's own creative guidance says the same thing — attract attention immediately, show the brand early, connect with the viewer, and direct them to act — and the ads that follow it hold attention longer.

That is how Adloura structures a YouTube ad. The opening line names the viewer's problem or desire; the product is on screen in the opening scenes, not saved for a reveal; the middle gives one reason to believe; and the last seconds tell the viewer exactly what to do. A viewer who skips at five seconds has still seen your product and heard your promise.

What Adloura builds for YouTube

• 16:9 landscape for in-stream and in-feed placements, and 9:16 vertical for YouTube Shorts ads.
• A pre-skip hook — the first line and first scene written to earn the next ten seconds.
• Your actual product in the scenes, composited from the photo you upload.
• A professional voiceover in any of 20 languages. YouTube is watched with the sound on far more often than a social feed, so the voice carries the argument; burned-in captions carry it for everyone else.
• A closing frame with your product, its name and a call to action, for the viewers who watch to the end.

Lengths and formats

Adloura makes 15-, 20-, 30- and 45-second ads. Fifteen seconds suits non-skippable in-stream and Shorts; 30 seconds is the standard skippable spot; 45 seconds gives a considered purchase room to explain itself. Adloura's shortest ad is 15 seconds, so for a 6-second bumper, cut the hook and the closing frame from a 15-second ad in any video editor. The same ads work in Google's Demand Gen and Performance Max campaigns, which accept landscape, square and vertical video — upload all three shapes and let Google choose per placement.

Hooks that survive the Skip button

• Start mid-action — the product already doing its job in the first frame, not a logo animation.
• Name the viewer — "If you run a small bakery…" makes the right person stay and lets the wrong person skip for free.
• Make a specific promise — a number, a timeframe or a result, as long as you can stand behind it.
• Show the brand in the first five seconds — a skipped ad that showed the brand still did some work.
• Ask for one action — visit, install or shop, not all three.

Adloura's research step maps the hooks your category leans on and where the gap is, then writes the script around the angle you choose — and you can edit every line before it renders.

Time and cost

A YouTube ad takes a few minutes to generate — typically five to ten — and uses 1 credit with your product in it. The free plan includes 1 video ad a month with a small watermark and no credit card. Paid plans remove the watermark, from $14.99 a month; Pro and Premium also produce every shape from one generation.
