AI Promo Video Maker: Daily Specials, Offers and Events from One Photo
VdoBloom’s Daily Promo maker is an AI promo video maker for businesses whose offer changes every day. You give it one photo and one line, such as today’s special, a happy hour, a weekend brunch, a limited offer, a new menu item or an event night. It turns them into a short promo clip with cinematic camera moves around your product. You pick a template, type the promotion, add your business name if you like, and generate.
Is it free? New accounts get 10 free credits. A 4-second 480p clip costs 3 credits on Seedance 1.5 Pro and 7 on Seedance 2 Mini. The tab opens on Seedance 2, which costs 31 credits for 4 seconds at 480p. Paid credits start at 300 for $19.50 as a one-time pack that never expires, or $15 a month. The exact price shows on the Generate button.
It is made for restaurants, cafes, bars, bakeries, salons, boutiques, gyms and any local shop that posts to Instagram Stories, WhatsApp Status, Facebook or Google Business. The whole flow is upload, type and generate, and a clip usually renders in two to three minutes.
How it works
- 1
Pick a promo template
Choose Today’s Special, Happy Hour, Weekend Brunch, Limited Offer, New Menu Item, WhatsApp Status or Event / Night. Each one sets the scene, the light and the energy of the clip.
- 2
Type the promotion
Write one line, for example "Grilled salmon with roasted vegetables, $22" or "2-for-1 cocktails 4–7pm Friday". It steers the mood and the shots. The clip itself has no on-screen text.
- 3
Upload one photo
Upload a photo of the dish, drink, product or venue. The item in the photo stays the hero while the camera moves around it.
- 4
Add your business name (optional)
The name is woven into the scene description so the clip feels like your place.
- 5
Choose model, length and format
The default is 9:16 vertical on Seedance 2. Switch to a cheaper model for daily volume, or pick 1:1 or 16:9 if you need them. The WhatsApp Status template keeps the clip vertical and under 30 seconds.
- 6
Generate and post
Download the MP4, add your price or text in your usual app if needed, and post it to Stories, Status or your Google Business profile.
Why use this tool
Seven ready templates
Today’s Special, Happy Hour, Weekend Brunch, Limited Offer, New Menu Item, WhatsApp Status and Event / Night, each with its own scene and lighting.
One photo, one line
There is no storyboard, timeline or editing. You upload, type and generate, so a promo fits around a busy shift.
Shot-by-shot timing
On multi-shot models the clip follows a timed shot list: hero push-in, macro close-up, slow orbit, top-down and a final frontal shot. The item from your photo stays locked while the camera moves.
Vertical by default
Clips start at 9:16 for Stories, Reels, Shorts and WhatsApp Status. Square and landscape are available on models that support them.
Pick your price point
Every image-to-video model is in the picker. Use a 3-credit model for daily posts and a premium model for a launch or a big weekend.
Automatic refunds
If a render fails, its credits go back to your balance.
What is an AI promo video maker?
An AI promo video maker generates a short promotional clip from a prompt or a photo, so you do not have to film, edit or hire a designer. Most tools in this space are template editors with stock footage, text and music. VdoBloom’s Daily Promo works differently. It generates the footage itself from your own photo, so the dish or product in the clip is yours rather than stock.
The format is built for the daily-special habit: one quick clip a day that keeps you visible in local feeds and gives regulars a reason to drop in.
Which model should I use, and what does it cost?
All of these models are in the picker on this tab. Prices come from VdoBloom’s credit table and show on the Generate button before anything runs.

The seven promo templates
Each template adds its own scene and energy to your line of text.
- Today’s Special: warm restaurant light, the featured dish on the table, appetising close-ups.
- Happy Hour: a lively bar at golden hour with colourful drinks and clinking glasses.
- Weekend Brunch: bright morning light over a layered brunch spread.
- Limited Offer: warm tones and a soft spotlight that add urgency to the deal.
- New Menu Item: premium lighting and a reveal-style hero shot of the new dish.
- WhatsApp Status: a bright, phone-shot feel with the item centred, kept vertical and under 30 seconds.
- Event / Night: warm nightlife light and soft crowd bokeh for live music, quiz nights and parties.

Tips for promos people stop for
The photo and the first second do most of the work.
- Shoot the dish close, in daylight, with the plate filling most of the frame.
- Use a portrait photo if the model you picked follows the photo’s shape. That way the vertical clip fills the screen.
- Keep the promo line short and concrete: the item, the price, the time.
- Add the price and your logo as text in your posting app. Stories and Status both have built-in text tools.
- Post at the same time every day so regulars learn when to look.
What this tool does not do
Seedance clips are generated with sound switched off, and no clip carries burned-in text. The promo line steers the visuals, but the price and offer are not written on screen. Add text, stickers and music in Instagram, WhatsApp or any video editor before posting. There is no stock-footage library or timeline editor, and each clip is built from the one photo you upload.
Frequently asked questions
Is the AI promo video maker free?
New accounts get 10 free credits, enough for three 4-second clips on Seedance 1.5 Pro at 480p, or one on Seedance 2 Mini. The default Seedance 2 costs 31 credits per 4-second 480p clip. Paid credits start at 300 for $19.50, one-time and never expiring.
How long does it take to make a promo video?
Typing the line and uploading the photo takes about a minute. Rendering usually takes two to three minutes, so the full loop fits inside a short break.
Does the video show my price and offer text?
No. The clip is generated without on-screen text, because AI video models often misspell words. Your promo line guides the scene and the shots. Add the price as text in your Stories or Status editor, which keeps it accurate and easy to change.
Does the promo video have music?
Seedance clips from this tool are generated with sound switched off, and the prompts do not ask any model for a soundtrack. Add a track in Instagram, TikTok or WhatsApp when you post, or in any video editor.
What size is the video?
It is 9:16 vertical by default, for Stories, Reels, Shorts and WhatsApp Status. Models with an aspect-ratio setting also offer 1:1 and 16:9. Some models follow the shape of your photo instead.
Can I make a WhatsApp Status video?
Yes. The WhatsApp Status template keeps the clip vertical and no longer than 30 seconds, so you can post it straight from your phone gallery.
What photo works best?
A sharp, well-lit photo of the dish, drink, product or venue, taken close and filling most of the frame. Avoid flash glare and cluttered tables. The item in the photo is what the camera moves around.
Which businesses is this for?
Any business where the offer rotates: restaurants, cafes, bars, bakeries, salons, gyms, boutiques and local shops. If you write today’s offer on a chalkboard, this turns it into a short video.
Do I need video editing skills?
No. You pick a template, type a line, upload a photo and generate. Camera moves, lighting and pacing come from the template and the model.
What happens if a video fails?
The credits for a failed render are refunded automatically, and you can generate again.
