Animated photos
Animate product photos with AI for your website
Give a product image a few seconds of gentle motion — a slow zoom, a soft pan, a focus shift — picked from a list, and use it wherever a still would sit: your homepage, a category banner, a product page.

Photo and video editors
Finish any result in the built-in editors, with your library already inside. No extra subscription.
Animated product photos are made for websites, not for social feeds. The motion is deliberately small: the product stays where it is and looks the same, and only the camera and the light move. That is what makes the result feel premium rather than gimmicky — and what keeps the product recognizably yours.
You pick the motion from a short list — gentle zoom in, gentle zoom out, soft pan, focus shift or subtle drift — or let it choose. Each clip is five seconds long and comes in portrait 3:4, square, vertical 9:16, landscape 4:3 or wide 16:9. There is no prompt to write.
Use it as a quiet looping hero on your homepage, a moving banner above a category, or a living image in a product gallery.
Where animated photos work best
- Homepage hero: one quiet loop draws the eye without the weight of a full video.
- Category banners: a slow pan across a product adds depth above a product grid.
- Product galleries: a focus shift highlights a material or a detail.
- Landing pages: a gentle zoom keeps a launch page from feeling static.
Because the product itself does not move, the clip can sit next to your still photos without looking out of place: the page gains motion without losing its calm.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from a product video?
A product video creates a shot with real movement for ads and listings. An animated photo keeps the product still and only adds gentle camera movement, for web pages.
Will the product move or change?
It is designed not to: only the camera and the light move.
Do I need to write a prompt?
No. Choose a motion from the list, or let it choose.
How do I use it on my site?
As a muted, looping video wherever you would place an image.
Which motion should I choose?
Gentle zoom in for a hero, soft pan for wide banners, focus shift to draw attention to a detail. If you are unsure, Auto picks one that suits the photo.
Can I use the clips in ads?
Yes, but they are made to be calm. For ads that need more movement, use a product video or a social media video instead.
