Short answer: To make a 9:16 vertical video ad from your website, paste the URL into Motioneed, pick 9:16 and 15 seconds, and it builds a 1080x1920 ad from your real logo, colors, copy and product screens, with music. Keep the hook in the first two seconds, one idea per scene, and the call to action on the last card. A 15-second ad costs 7.5 to 27 credits depending on the writing model.
The format: one file for Reels, TikTok and Shorts
Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts all play full-screen vertical video at 9:16. Motioneed renders 9:16 at 1080x1920, so one export fits all three.
| Setting | What to choose | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Aspect | 9:16 | Fills a phone held upright |
| Length | 15 s (or 10 s) | Short enough to finish before the swipe |
| Size | 1080x1920 | The native vertical size of the feeds |
| Sound | Music on, voice optional | Many watch muted, so words go on screen too |
Motion videos come in 10, 15, 30, 60 or 90 seconds. For a feed ad, 15 seconds is the usual pick.
What to put on screen
A vertical ad is read on a phone, at arm's length, often without sound. What works:
- A hook first. The opening line comes from your page's headline. A question or a plain promise reads in under two seconds.
- One idea per scene. Each scene shows one product moment: a real screen, a number, a quote.
- Your real interface, large. Motioneed captures your pages and cuts each screenshot into blocks that fit a tall frame, so the product reads at phone size instead of a shrunken desktop.
- Text clear of the edges. Feeds put buttons and captions over the top and bottom, so keep words in the middle of the frame.
- A call to action last. The final card carries your button text and domain.
How Motioneed builds it from your site
- It reads the page. Each picture and clip it keeps says what it shows and which section it came from, and pictures from the footer, the nav or sections about the company (team, careers, press) are left out.
- It picks and places footage by meaning. A screenshot of your pricing table goes in the pricing scene, a customer clip in the proof scene.
- It frames each picture at its own shape. A wide screenshot gets a wide card, a tall one a tall card, so no empty bands sit around it.
- It sharpens small clips it shows large. When a video from your site is too small for the tall frame, it is upscaled before it is shown full width. This is charged only when it works.
- It checks every scene in a browser for cut-off words, overlaps and pictures blown up past their pixels, and repairs them before the export.
What it costs
Motion is charged per finished second, by the model that writes it:
| Writing model | Credits a second | A 15 s vertical ad |
|---|---|---|
| Haiku 5.5 | 0.5 | 7.5 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | 0.9 | 13.5 |
| Opus 5.5 | 1.8 | 27 |
The free plan makes a 10-second preview with the Motioneed mark. Export in 1080p or 4K without the mark needs a paid plan or a credit pack. A failed video gives its credits back. See pricing.
Before you paste the URL
| Check | Why |
|---|---|
| The page is public | The capture sees what a logged-out visitor sees |
| The headline says what the product does | It usually becomes the hook |
| Real product screenshots are on the page | They become the scenes |
| The call to action is a short phrase | It ends the ad on one action |
