This guy got Claude to take control of Arcads and generate hyperrealistic UGC ads with a consistent AI actor, from a 7-word prompt, and now e-com brands pay him $1,500 per video to clone the setup. He got tired of watching DTC brands burn $4K on a photoshoot that...

RIP Arcads 🤯 I built a Claude skill that vibe-codes UGC ads on demand. One product + one prompt = the AI creator, the script, the scene-by-scene shot list, and finished video. All inside Claude. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who can't afford to keep paying $500-$1,500 per UGC video and waiting 2 weeks for revisions. If you're briefing creators, mailing PR boxes, waiting on first cuts, then asking for re-shoots because the hook didn't land... This skill eliminates the entire loop: → Tell Claude the product, ad angle, and length → Skill writes the GPT Image 2.0 prompt to generate the AI creator from scratch → Skill writes every scene prompt, dialogue line, and delivery direction → Pipe it into Seedance 2.0 with character + product + voice locked → Speed up + caption in CapCut → Ship the ad in 20 minutes No more paying $11 per video on Arcads. What you get: → Perfect character consistency across every scene → Voice consistency that holds clip-to-clip (small CapCut hack inside the tutorial) → Real product fidelity using your actual product photo as a reference → Multi-scene day-in-life, testimonial, and action-shot formats out of the box Built 100% with a Claude skill + Seedance 2.0. I recorded a full step-by-step tutorial showing the exact workflow + the 3 finished AI UGC ads I made for Rhode, AG1, and Barebells.

Claude Cowork + Seedance 2.0 is f*cking wild 🤯 I built a skill inside Claude Cowork that generates UGC video ads on demand using Seedance 2.0, the best AI video model. One product image + one prompt = a full UGC ad with multiple shots, dialogue, and on-brand pacing. All inside Claude Cowork. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who need UGC creative at volume without hiring creators or paying per-video SaaS fees. If you're briefing creators every week, waiting days for footage, paying $150–$300 per UGC video, and still getting ads that miss the brand vibe... This skill eliminates the entire loop: → Drop a product image into Claude Cowork → Tell it the ad angle (unboxing, review, lifestyle, demo) → Claude writes the dialogue, shot list, and pacing → Fires it to Seedance 2.0 via FAL AI API → Downloads finished clips into organized folders → Stitches multiple shots into one finished ad No creator briefs. No waiting for footage. No $200/video platform fees. What you get: → UGC video ads generated in minutes, not days → Full control over dialogue, pacing, and shot composition → Your product photos as reference so Seedance matches your real packaging → A reusable skill: new product, new folder, same pipeline Built 100% in Claude Cowork with the Seedance 2.0 API. I put together a full playbook with the Claude Cowork skill file, the exact prompts, and the FAL AI setup to get this running yourself.

I just cracked the code on AI UGC ads 🤯 51 seconds long. One creator across the entire ad: same face, same voice, same product packaging in every single shot. Talking-head delivery, b-roll cutaways, voiceover running over the b-roll, and the creator moving through different settings. A fully edited, multi-shot ad that actually holds. If you've been stuck generating 8-second clips that look fine but fall apart the second you try to string them into a real ad, no character that holds, no voice that stays the same clip to clip, no product that survives more than one shot, this is the workflow you're missing. Here's exactly how I did it: → Pull a winning authority ad and rewrite the script for your product → Build your creator in ChatGPT Images 2.0 to match the exact buyer demographic → Lock the creator + product as reusable Elements so they stay identical across every shot → Break the script into single-scene shots so each one is a clean generation → Lock the voice on the first clip, then carry that same voice through every shot after → Tag your b-roll shots as voiceover so the line plays over the cutaway instead of lip-syncing → Edit in CapCut: cut the dead air, nudge to 1.1x → Drop the final cut in Captions, add subtitles, export Consistent character, consistent voice, consistent packaging — across talking head, b-roll, voiceover, and multiple settings. No character drift. No robotic voice swap. No disconnected 8-second clips. I put together the full step-by-step playbook with the exact ChatGPT Images 2.0 and Seedance prompts, the element-tagging setup, and the voice trick most people miss.

Hermes + Claude + Higgsfield MCP + ViralBuilder = 💰💰💰 Four tools. One prompt chain. Hook to finished video in 10 minutes. I built a Claude skill that writes shot-by-shot Higgsfield prompts from a single creative brief. ViralBuilder tells you what's winning. The skill turns it into a production-ready prompt. Higgsfield renders it. No creative director. No guessing. No separate tools. Here is the setup: Higgsfield MCP → Open Claude Code → Settings → Connectors → Enter: → Connect your account Hermes → The agent layer running underneath Claude Code → It holds your skills, crons, memory, and routing rules → When you prompt Claude, Hermes feeds it the context it needs ViralBuilder (like Gethookd) → The winning ecom video database → Scrapes top performing ecom videos across platforms → Claude reads the data and extracts what styles, hooks, and formats are actually scaling The skill: video-prompt-builder → Installed inside Claude via Hermes → Takes a creative brief and outputs a full shot-by-shot prompt → Covers camera work, effects, transitions, pacing, and energy arc → Every output is structured for Higgsfield to render without ambiguity No switching apps. No export steps. Everything runs from one place. ▸ FIND WINNING CREATIVE ANGLES ViralBuilder tells you what the market already validated. Claude reads it and extracts the pattern. Prompts to run: "Search ViralBuilder for the top performing ecom videos in [niche] over the last 21 days. Extract the 3 dominant hook styles and rank by view velocity." "Pull the winning video formats in [niche] from ViralBuilder. Which opening 3 seconds appears most across videos spending over $10k?" "Find what video style is scaling right now in [niche] for the US market. UGC, talking head, or product demo. Filter for videos with over 1M views." "Pull the last 30 days of viral ecom hooks in [niche] from ViralBuilder. Cluster by emotional trigger. Which cluster has the most longevity?" You are not guessing at angles. You are reading what the market already spent money validating. ▸ BUILD THE PROMPT WITH THE SKILL This is where the video-prompt-builder skill takes over. You give Claude the winning angle. The skill outputs a complete shot-by-shot prompt with effects, transitions, pacing, and energy arc ready to fire into Higgsfield. Prompts to run: "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. Brief: 15-second UGC ad for [product] in [niche]. Hook style: [style from ViralBuilder]. Tone: direct to camera, US English. Output the full shot-by-shot effects timeline, effects inventory, density map, and energy arc." "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. The dominant hook in [niche] this week is [hook]. Build a 10-second product video prompt that opens with a speed ramp into a close-up product reveal. Include a signature visual effect and a low-density CTA landing." "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. Brief: replicate the pacing and energy of a [style description] video for [product]. Target duration: 20 seconds. Output all four sections. Then generate the video with Higgsfield using the shot-by-shot prompt." The skill outputs four sections every time: → Shot-by-shot effects timeline with camera, movement, and transitions per shot → Master effects inventory showing every technique used and where → Effects density map showing high, medium, and low intensity across the timeline → Energy arc describing how the video opens, builds, and lands That output goes directly into Higgsfield. No rewriting. No translating. ▸ GENERATE THE CREATIVE Claude writes the brief via the skill. Higgsfield MCP builds the video. Both happen in the same session. Prompts to run: "Use the video-prompt-builder skill to write a 15-second UGC prompt for [product]. Hook in the first 3 seconds, speed ramp into product reveal, slow-motion CTA landing. Then generate with Higgsfield in 9:16 format." "Build 3 prompt variations on this winning angle: [angle]. Each variation opens with a different effect — speed ramp, digital zoom, whip pan. Use the video-prompt-builder skill for each. Then generate all three with Higgsfield." "Use the video-prompt-builder skill. Brief: problem-solution ad for [product], 20 seconds, US market. Problem shot at high density, product reveal at medium, result and CTA at low. Generate with Higgsfield in 9:16." No separate tool. No file transfer. The video comes back in the same thread. ▸ CHAIN THE WHOLE STACK One prompt. All four tools firing together. "You are my ad creative director. Hermes has loaded my brand context. Pull the top performing video style in [niche] from ViralBuilder this week. Use the video-prompt-builder skill to write a full shot-by-shot prompt for [product] that replicates that style — 20 seconds, 9:16, US market, hook in the first 3 seconds. Output the effects timeline, inventory, density map, and energy arc. Then generate the video with Higgsfield." That single prompt replaces a half-day of production. The math before this stack: Brief: 30 minutes Script: 1 hour Creative production: 2 to 3 hours Agency or freelancer cost: $500 to $2,000 per creative With this stack: Hook to finished creative: 10 minutes Cost per creative: tool subscription, a fraction of agency rate 5 product tests in the time it used to take to brief one Bad product tests are where US ad budget disappears. $600 to $1,500 per failed test, before you even know if the angle works. This stack shows you what the market already validated before you spend a dollar on production. Hermes = your context layer. Brand, goals, past performance. Claude is always informed. ViralBuilder = your winning video database. See exactly what styles, hooks, and formats are scaling before you produce anything. video-prompt-builder skill = the translation layer. Turns a creative brief into a structured, production-ready Higgsfield prompt every time. Claude = the brain. Reads the market, writes the brief, chains the tools. Higgsfield MCP = the output. Video generated directly from the prompt. No export step. Four tools. One session. 10 minutes. Comment + RT "STACK" and I'll DM you the full workflow + the video-prompt-builder skill file.
