AI UGC Video Template

A customer talks to their phone camera about why they love it. Feels like a real post.

  • Reel
  • Real people
  • 15–30 seconds
  • about $4 in AI credits
Made for Dewfold, a fictional business, from its website.

What it is

A selfie-style video of a customer speaking to camera, with natural lip-synced speech, cut with close-ups of the product and burned-in captions.

When to use it

Ads and organic posts that need trust: food, beauty, fitness, apps, local services.

Why it works

User-generated reviews are the best-performing ad format on TikTok and Reels because they look like a friend's recommendation.

How it plays

  1. hook (about 4 s): The customer on camera says a surprising first line about the product.
  2. story (about 6 s): What problem they had and what changed, in their words.
  3. detail (about 5 s): A close-up of the product or result while they keep talking.
  4. cta (about 5 s): They tell viewers where to get it.

The hook: A first-person line that sounds overheard: 'Okay, I didn't expect this…'

Questions

How much does the ugc review template cost to make?

Each one costs about $4 in AI credits, paid at cost with your own key. OpenPromo adds no markup. Writing the script is a few cents, and you see it before anything is made.

Rendering again after an edit only pays for the scenes you changed.

Do I have to write the script?

No. Add your website and OpenPromo reads it: what you sell, your prices, your reviews, your colours and fonts. The writer fills the template from that, and you can edit every scene, or give it an angle such as a product or an offer.

Which AI models make it?

GPT Image 2, Veo 3.1 Lite, Lyria 3. They were picked in a side-by-side test of the image, video and voice models available, on quality for the price.
