Why add a video to a product listing?
Short videos help buyers understand size, texture and use in a way photos cannot. Marketplaces such as Etsy allow a short video on listings, and social platforms favour vertical video in feeds. But editing software can feel complicated. This free product video generator turns your photos into a polished slideshow video in minutes. Add two to ten pictures, choose a format, set the time per photo, pick a gentle zoom or pan, add a caption, a badge and an end card with your shop name, and download the video.
How the generator works
The tool plays your photos in sequence on a canvas in your browser, applies smooth cross-fades and slow motion, draws your caption and badge on top and records the result with the browser's built-in recorder. The video is created in real time, so a 20-second video takes about 20 seconds to record. You can see the result and download it as an MP4 or WebM file, depending on what your browser supports. Photos are never uploaded.
Choosing the right format
- Vertical 9:16: Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Pinterest video.
- Square 1:1: Etsy and marketplace listings, and feed posts.
- Landscape 16:9: YouTube, websites and presentations.
- Portrait 4:5: Instagram and Facebook feed posts, which take more screen space than square.
Tips for better product videos
- Use sharp, well-lit photos with the same lighting and background for a clean look.
- Start with your best image, which acts as the cover.
- Keep each photo on screen for two to four seconds. Longer feels slow on mobile.
- Show the product from several angles, in use and next to something that shows size.
- Keep captions short and place them where they do not cover the product.
- Finish with a call to action or your shop name on the end card.
Ideas for what to show
- The finished product on a clean background.
- A close-up of material or detail.
- The product in real use or being worn.
- Size comparison with a hand or everyday object.
- Packaging or what the buyer receives.
- A discount or new-arrival badge for promotions.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using photos of different sizes and styles, which looks uneven.
- Adding too much text, which is hard to read and distracts from the product.
- Switching tabs while recording. Some browsers slow down background tabs, which can make the video stutter.
- Ignoring marketplace rules for video length, size and content. Check them before you upload.
Privacy and limits
Videos are rendered on your device, so a fast computer produces smoother results. The generator makes slideshow-style videos without audio. If you want music or voiceover, add it later in a video editor or on the social platform, and use only audio you have the right to use. Browser support for recording differs, and recent versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari work best.

Frequently asked questions
How long should a product video be?
Ten to fifteen seconds works well for listings. Social ads often perform best at 15–30 seconds.
Do I need special equipment?
No. A phone, a plain background and window light are enough to start.
What makes a product video convert?
Show the product in use, show size and detail, and keep the message clear in the first two seconds.
What format is the downloaded video?
MP4 when your browser supports it, otherwise WebM. Both play on modern phones and computers, and platforms can convert them.
Is there a watermark?
No. The video contains only what you add: your photos, caption, badge and end card.
Why is the video created in real time?
The tool records the canvas as it plays, so the recording takes as long as the video. This keeps everything private and in your browser.
