AI product videos, with a model who stays the same
castingcard.ai makes short product videos with a fictional AI model you train once: holding a bottle to camera, wearing the necklace, swinging the bag, in the same face across every product. Shoot the photo, then turn it into a 5-second clip for about 39¢ of GPU time, with no credits.







Product clips made in the studio
Photo first, then motion
Every clip starts from a photo you've approved, so you choose the framing, light and product placement before paying for video. A photo costs about 0.1¢ of GPU time; the clip from it about 39¢.
When a person is in the shot, use your trained AI model, so the same face fronts the whole product line. For ads in a creator's voice, see AI UGC ads.
How to make an AI product video
- 01Set the scene
Describe the product, the setting and the light, or start from a preset look.
- 02Pick the photo
Shoot a few takes and keep the one with the right framing.
- 03Animate it
Turn it into a 5-second clip: a hand swing, a sip to camera, a slow turn of the bottle.

Questions
- What kind of product videos can it make?
- Short clips of a product on its own or with an AI model holding, wearing or using it: beauty close-ups, jewelry on the body, drinks to camera, accessories in hand, in studio light or real-looking places.
- How long is a clip, and what does it cost?
- A clip is about 5 seconds. On a rented RTX 4090 it takes about 27 minutes of GPU time, about 39¢, or roughly 2 clips for a dollar, plus your plan.
- Can the same model appear in every product video?
- Yes. The model's face is trained once, so one person can front a whole product line, from the first photo to the last clip.
- Why not a credit-based video app?
- Credit apps charge roughly $1 to $4 a clip once credits are turned into dollars. castingcard.ai charges the GPU's own price for the seconds a clip takes. Credit apps offer more hosted video models and need no GPU setup.
- Can I make a model of a real person?
- No. Every character is a fictional adult. Real people, celebrities and lookalikes aren't allowed.
- Do I need my own GPU?
- No. Use a graphics card you already have, or rent one from Runpod by the second on your own Runpod account. The studio sets the GPU up, runs your jobs and shuts it off when idle. A photo takes about 0.1¢ of GPU time and a 5-second clip about 39¢ on a rented RTX 4090.
- Can I use castingcard.ai today?
- Not yet. castingcard.ai is in pre-launch: the studio opens to the waitlist first. 400 Founder seats are sold at $279 once, and the waitlist hears first when they open.
