How to Create Ads with AI In 15 Minutes (INCLUDES Variations!)

About this video

David, partnering with Semrush, demos AdCreative.ai accessed through Semrush (pitched at a substantial discount versus using it directly) to generate a complete ad package for the fictional Kevin Cookie Company; the title’s ‘15 minutes’ echoes the intro claim that users with a website could generate ads and copy in just 10 minutes. The trial is three days and requires credit card information. Workflow: (1) Brand setup — paste a website URL and the AI scans logo, brand colors and a snapshot of the business (he manually fixes a weak product description using copy from the site; advanced setup allows custom/alternate logos and fonts from a library or upload). (2) Ad Package project in five steps: explain the goal/product (scanning a product-specific page beats the homepage; he sets goal ‘Get sales’, tone friendly, renames the product to chocolate chip cardamom cookies, call to action ‘Order now’), choose a strategy (direct conversion by default; alternatives include limited-time offer, buy-one-get-one-free and free shipping, plus generated options like flavor guarantee or cookie subscription), pick image size by platform (he chooses portrait for Instagram rather than the recommended square), choose a background image (auto-detected, upload, free stock, or paid stock which paid users do not pay extra for), and set headline/punchline text with AI ‘suggest variation’ and ‘change sentiment’ helpers. Generation produces, he says, literally hundreds of options, each with a proprietary conversion score; downloads are limited to 100 per month by default. Editing offers Quick Edit (text, background, logo, colors, font for one creative) and the Creative Studio editor for layer-level changes like deleting elements or adding shapes/images. Creatives can be resized via Convert To (which starts a new project) and pushed directly to Meta Ads, Google Ads or LinkedIn Ads. Ad Texts are generated from the product description using frameworks such as before-after bridge and pain-agitate-solution, with generate-more, edit and delete options; he is lukewarm on the Audiences tool, saying in his experience Meta’s algorithm targets better than he can.

Key takeaways

• Set up the brand by scanning your website URL for logo, colors and description first — scan a product-specific page, not the homepage, for more accurate ad inputs.
• The Ad Package flow is five steps: goal/product details, strategy (default direct conversion), platform-based image size, background image, and headline/punchline text with AI variation/sentiment tools.
• Generation yields hundreds of creatives ranked by a proprietary conversion score, but downloads are capped at 100 per month by default — select carefully.
• Use Quick Edit for simple per-ad tweaks and Creative Studio for layer-level edits; finished creatives/copy can be pushed directly to Meta, Google or LinkedIn Ads.
• Ad copy is generated from frameworks like before-after bridge and pain-agitate-solution and usually still needs human tweaks; the creator trusts Meta’s algorithmic audience targeting over manual audience building.
