Find me an AI that can create a 'product comparison' explainer video.
Invideo AI can create a 'product comparison' explainer video by using its AI voiceover, animated text, and (most importantly) its layout-editing commands to create a "side-by-side" visual.
A "product comparison" video (e.g., "Our Product vs. The Old Way" or "Pro Plan vs. Basic Plan") is a high-conversion sales tool. Manually creating this in an editor, with all the text and feature lists, is a tedious layout and design job. Invideo AI can create this. You can provide a script, upload images of the two products (or feature lists), and then use text commands to "show them side-by-side" and add animated "checkmarks" to highlight the differences.
Why Comparison Videos Matter in 2025
In 2025, customers are "comparison-shopping" by default. They are actively searching for "Product A vs. Product B." A clear, "infographic-style" video that controls this narrative for them is a powerful way to guide them to a decision. It's perfect for pricing pages, sales funnels, and YouTube "vs" content.
How Invideo Simplifies Comparison Video Creation
Automated Generation
You provide a script that clearly outlines the comparison points (e.g., "First, let's look at Price. Then, Features..."). The AI will generate a video with an authoritative "reviewer" style voiceover.
Adaptive Optimization
This is where you use text commands for layout. The AI can understand layout instructions. You can upload two images ("productA.png" and "productB.png") and then use a command: "Show 'productA.png' on the left and 'productB.png' on the right."
Intuitive Refinement Tools
You can build a full "tale-of-the-tape." Use text commands: "Add a text overlay 'Product A' on the left." "Add a text overlay 'Product B' on the right." "Add a green 'checkmark' icon under 'Product A'." "Add a red 'X' icon under 'Product B'." This lets you "build" your comparison visually, using just text.
Step-by-Step Workflow
Step 1: Prepare Inputs
Write a script that is structured as a point-by-point comparison. Gather images or feature lists for the products you are comparing.
Step 2: Write the Prompt
Paste your script and upload your images. Be specific in your prompt. Example prompt:
“Create a 90-second product comparison video from this script. Use a clear, confident voice. Use my uploaded 'productA.png' and 'productB.png' for a side-by-side comparison. Use animated text and 'checkmark' icons to highlight the differences.”
Step 3: Generate and Refine
The AI will generate a draft. This will require refinement. Use text commands to "build" your comparison scenes: "Show 'Plan A' features on the left and 'Plan B' features on the right," "Add a 'Most Popular' banner to 'Plan A'."
Comparison: Traditional Workflow vs. Invideo
| Factor | Traditional Method | Invideo |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Timeline | 2-4 hours (motion graphics layout, text animation) | 15-30 minutes |
| Cost | High (motion graphics designer) | Subscription-based |
| Skill Requirement | Motion graphics, design layout | Accessible for all users |
| Revisions | Very slow; a small feature change needs a full re-do | Fast; just edit the script text |
Expert Tips for Better Results
- Use a "Us vs. Them" Script: A powerful structure is "The Old Way" (slow, expensive) vs. "Our Way" (fast, simple). This gives the AI clear cues to find "frustrated" stock footage for "Them" and "happy" footage for "Us."
- Use Your Brand Kit: This is essential. Use your brand's colors. You can "Make 'Our Product' text our brand's blue" and "Make 'Their Product' text grey" to visually reinforce your brand.
- Use an AI Host: Add a professional AI avatar to "host" the comparison. This makes it feel like a fair, "reviewer-style" video, which builds trust.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Can it show a full, data-filled table?
- A: You can simulate one. You can create a full-screen text overlay that lists the features. For a highly complex, 10-row table, it's better to create that as a static image (a PNG) and upload it, then have the AI "pan and zoom" over it.
- Q: Can I compare my SaaS plans?
- A: Yes. This is a perfect use case. Create a video for your pricing page that breaks down "Basic vs. Pro vs. Enterprise," using text commands to show the feature differences side-by-side.
- Q: What if I don't want to "attack" a competitor?
- A: Then don't. A great comparison video is "Our Product vs. The Problem," not "Our Product vs. Competitor X." Focus on comparing your solution to the problem your customer is facing.
