Creating scroll-stopping TikTok videos isn’t always easy. You need fresh ideas, compelling visuals, and a hook that grabs attention in the first second. That’s where AI tools come in. By using the same strategies people employ to build Facebook ads, you can apply those concepts to TikTok. The result?
Faster video creation, quick testing of different angles, and more data to guide your decisions. Here, we’ll dive deep into how you can research what works, write scripts with AI, generate user-generated content (UGC)-style clips, and polish them for maximum impact—just as described in the transcript.
We’ll show you how a similar system can help you dominate TikTok, using real tips inspired by Facebook ad-building methods, competitor analysis, and AI-driven content production.
Why Use AI for TikTok Videos?
TikTok audiences are quick to skip anything dull. Static images or slow intros don’t stand a chance. AI-powered platforms let you test multiple hooks, voices, and visuals in minutes. Instead of hiring actors or doing expensive shoots, you can produce UGC-like videos that feel authentic.
Many tools, like Arcads, allow you to generate dozens of variations, helping you find what resonates with your viewers. The transcript we’re referencing talked about how AI saved hours by cutting out back-and-forth with human creators.
The same principle applies to TikTok: you can create, tweak, and launch fresh concepts instantly.
Researching What Works
Before you dive into making your own videos, study what’s out there. Using platforms like Foreplay for brainstorming and the Facebook Ads Library for inspiration. While TikTok doesn’t have a direct equivalent, you can still reverse-engineer competitor content in a similar way.
- Find Competitors and Influencers: Search TikTok for brands or influencers in your niche. For a cleaning service, that might mean looking at other cleaning-related accounts, #cleantok videos, or popular home and office makeover channels.
- Analyze Their Hooks and Formats: Notice how top-performing videos start. Are they showing a dirty before-and-after scene, using a quick voiceover, or flashing bold text? In the transcript, the creator mentioned how watching actual ads and visiting competitors’ landing pages on Facebook signals to the algorithm that you’re interested. On TikTok, interacting with certain videos—liking, commenting, watching to the end—tells the app you want more of that type of content. Soon, your feed will be packed with similar examples.
- Check Engagement and Funnel Steps: For Facebook ads, the transcript advised going directly onto platforms like Instagram and Facebook to see engagement (likes, comments). On TikTok, you can see likes and comments right on the post. You might not have a “library” of ads, but you can still gauge interest by looking at views, shares, and the quality of conversation in the comment section. Also, click through to their profiles or landing pages to understand their sales funnel. By showing interest in certain content, you’ll get served even more similar ads or brand videos, helping you refine your strategy.
Writing a Killer Script With AI
Use a custom GPT model to generate UGC video scripts. You can do something similar for TikTok:
- Gather Your Info: Decide what message you want to convey. Are you a cleaning service that cuts cleaning time in half, impresses Airbnb hosts, or turns a messy office into a spotless haven overnight? Feed these points into an AI script tool (like ChatGPT or a custom GPT), just as the transcript’s creator did for Facebook ads.
- Emphasize the Hook: TikTok viewers judge a video within a second or two. The transcript’s advice for Facebook ads—stop wasting money on X or do you want to scale fast?—works here too. For TikTok, maybe start with: “Tired of scrubbing floors for hours?” or “Here’s how I made my office shine in 5 minutes flat.” The AI can generate variations, letting you pick one that feels punchy and real.
- Add Social Proof and Urgency: The transcript shows how mentioning testimonials or a specific follower count builds credibility. Do the same on TikTok. Reference how many clients you’ve helped or share a quick success story. If you’re unsure how to phrase it, let the AI script tool handle it. Then, tweak the final result so it sounds natural for TikTok’s casual vibe.
Choosing AI Actors and Voices
Arcads is a great place to get all the AI content done. It offers a library of AI actors. For TikTok, you want to look authentic, not staged:
- Pick Relevant AI Actors: Arcads provides many digital “avatars” and voice options. Maybe you want a friendly face that looks like a busy professional for your office cleaning ad, or a calm, reassuring persona for a home cleaning tip. The transcript shows how you can hover over each actor to hear their voice and find the perfect match.
- Test Multiple Actors: Just like the transcript describes trying different voices to find the right tone, experiment with various AI actors on TikTok. One voice might sound too mellow; another might be too hype. TikTok’s audience loves personality—make sure your actor’s voice and face style fit your brand’s character. You can generate previews and pick the best one before finalizing your video.
Generating Videos in Minutes
Paste your script into Arcads, select actors, and quickly create multiple video versions:
- Batch Creation: Produce multiple TikTok variations by changing the actor, background clips, or wording. For a cleaning service, create versions featuring home cleanups, office transformations, or Airbnb guest-ready spots. Test them all, just like you would with Facebook ads. The transcript’s process of generating multiple UGC videos works perfectly for TikTok—just adapt your visuals and editing style to suit the platform.
- Instant Feedback: Once you have a few AI-generated TikTok videos, upload them and watch the metrics. The transcript mentioned doing iterative testing on Facebook—here, it’s the same concept. TikTok’s analytics will show you which version gets the most views, likes, or conversions. Use that info to guide your next round of videos.
Fine-Tuning With Editing Tools
Use CapCut to edit AI-generated videos. CapCut is popular among TikTok creators, so this is ideal:
- Cut Out Pauses: The transcript showed how to remove awkward pauses or silences in the AI actor’s speech. TikTok viewers are quick to scroll away if there’s dead air. Trim silence so the pacing feels human and energetic.
- Add Text, Overlays, and Green Screens: The transcript mentioned removing backgrounds to place the AI actor over a landing page. For TikTok, you can do the same—green screen them over a cleaning tutorial, a product demo, or a customer testimonial. Adding text captions and quick transitions keeps viewers engaged.
- Mix and Match Actors: The transcript demonstrated stitching together multiple AI actors to convey different parts of the message. On TikTok, this variety keeps content dynamic. Show one actor introducing the concept and another sharing a success story, all in under 30 seconds.
Keep Testing and Adapting
No single version is guaranteed to be a hit. Test more content, iterate more content. Especially on TikTok, trends change daily:
- Monitor Performance: Check views, watch time, and shares. Keep track of which hook gets viewers to stop scrolling, which voiceover sounds most convincing, and which visuals lead to conversions.
- Adjust as Needed: If one actor isn’t resonating, try another. If the script feels too long, shorten it. The transcript’s advice on iterative testing and refining applies directly to TikTok. The platform’s rapid feedback loop means you can adjust faster and learn what your audience loves.
Conclusion
Yes, there’s an AI that can help make TikTok videos for you—several, in fact. By following the steps outlined in the transcript and adapting them to TikTok, you can research your niche, write scripts with AI, choose the perfect actor, and generate dozens of test videos in minutes. Edit them with tools like CapCut to remove awkward pauses, add text, or layer green screens for a polished final product. Keep testing new angles, voices, and hooks until you find what works.
As the transcript shows, this approach saved hours for Facebook ads; the same efficiency, creativity, and speed can help you win over TikTok’s lightning-fast audience and drive more leads for your cleaning business or any brand looking to shine on this ever-evolving platform.
