Yes. Each video recipe takes your existing product images (packshots, lifestyle shots, on-model photos) and converts them into short, looping product videos — slow rotations, hero zooms, parallax pans, and AI-generated lifestyle scene videos. No video shoot, no animation software, no prompts, no manual editing required. Useful for stores that have invested in product photography but don't have video budget or production timelines.

Yes. Recipes process thousands of products in parallel — connect your store or upload a folder, pick a video recipe, and the AI generates a video for every product simultaneously. A 1,000-SKU catalog produces 1,000 videos in minutes, not weeks. Output ratios match every channel's spec (1:1, 4:5, 9:16, 16:9) so videos drop directly into PDPs, Instagram, TikTok, and Google Shopping without re-cropping.

Yes. Every recipe outputs to ecommerce-ready specs in one pass — Shopify product video (under 1 GB, MP4, square or vertical), Amazon product video (1080p, 1:1, under 60 seconds), Etsy listing video, Instagram Shop, TikTok Shop, and Google Shopping merchant feeds. The recipe handles aspect ratios, file size compression, and format requirements automatically — no per-channel re-encoding needed.

Yes. Connect your Shopify store directly through the Crop.photo app — the recipe pulls product images, generates videos, and pushes them back to your products as PDP video assets. For social media, the same recipe outputs vertical (9:16) and square (1:1) variants in parallel, ready to schedule into Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, and YouTube Shorts. One source image, every channel covered.

No. Video recipes handle generation end-to-end — no prompts, no per-video tweaking, no AI-prompt engineering. Pick a recipe (rotation, parallax, hero zoom, lifestyle scene), point it at your assets, and the workflow runs. Each recipe has been tuned to produce consistent, on-brand video outputs across every product you run through it.

Most AI video generators (Runway, Pika, Sora-class tools) are built for general-purpose creative video — they require prompt engineering, produce one video at a time, and aren't tuned to ecommerce specs. Crop.photo's recipes are purpose-built for product video at scale: subject-aware framing that keeps your product centered across every frame, server-side rendering that handles thousands of videos in parallel without API engineering, and channel-specific output presets so videos drop directly into your store or marketplace listing.
