You already have a product page that says everything about what you sell. Krex AI can read that page and turn it into a short-form video ad, so you do not have to write a script or hunt for assets from scratch. Here is how to go from a link to a finished ad.
What the URL scraper does
When you paste a product URL, Krex AI visits the page and extracts the product name, description, price, and images automatically. It works on most Shopify stores, marketplaces, and brand sites, and it can get past common bot walls on tougher pages. You get a structured starting point instead of a blank canvas, which means the AI-drafted script is grounded in your real product copy, not a generic template.
Step by step
- Open the Product Ad wizard and choose the option to start from a link.
- Paste your product URL and let the URL scraper pull in the title, key details, and product images.
- Review what came back. Edit the product name, trim the description, or swap any image you do not want featured.
- Pick a goal and tone (for example, "drive clicks" with a punchy, energetic voice), then let Krex AI draft the script. You can rewrite any line.
- Choose your format: a faceless ad with product B-roll, or a talking-head avatar presenting the product. Add captions and an end card.
- Render. One render costs 1 credit, and you get a video sized for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, or your chosen platform.
Make it feel on-brand
The scraped images become your B-roll cut-ins, so the ad shows the actual product rather than stock footage. Layer in auto-captions with karaoke highlighting to hold attention on muted feeds, and set a clear end card with your offer or store name. If you want a presenter, add an AI avatar or your own Personal Clone and a cloned or preset voice to read the script.
When to refine instead of restart
If the scrape misses a detail, do not start over. Edit the fields directly, paste a better image, or rewrite the weak line in the script. Because the heavy lifting is already done, small fixes take seconds. Want several angles at once? Render a few variations with different hooks and see which lands.
Tips for better results
- Use the canonical product page, not a search results or category URL, so the scraper grabs one clear product.
- If a page is image-light, upload one or two of your own product shots to enrich the B-roll.
- Keep the script tight. Short-form ads reward a strong opening line and a single clear call to action.
A link is enough to get a real ad on screen today. Paste your product URL into the Product Ad wizard and render your first version, then iterate from there. See pricing for how credits work.
