Are AI Product Ad Videos Actually Outperforming Traditional Creatives in 2026?
Over the last few months, I've noticed a growing number of eCommerce brands replacing traditional product shoots with AI-generated product videos.
Some of these ads are built from only a few product images, yet the final result looks surprisingly close to a real commercial.
For those actively running Meta, TikTok, or YouTube campaigns:
• Are you seeing better CTRs?
• Better ROAS?
• Faster creative testing cycles?
• Lower production costs without hurting performance?
Or do you think AI creatives still struggle to match authentic UGC and real product footage?
Curious to hear what brands, media buyers, and creative strategists are seeing in actual campaigns.
