A TopView alternative: a guided story instead of a canvas to fill
TopView is an AI video agent that brings avatars, Product Avatar, product link to video and many models together on a canvas where every shot stays editable. adkix also starts from your website, your Instagram account or an idea, but guides you step by step towards one thing: a vertical ad of 15 s, 30 s or 1 min that tells a story.
What TopView does well
TopView covers a lot of ground: short films, series, marketing videos. Paste a product link or a brief and the agent plans the scenes, picks the models, generates the assets and keeps every shot editable on a canvas. Their site names Seedance 2.5, Wan 3.0 and MiniMax H3 among its video models.
For ads, TopView is strong on presenters: 5,000+ public avatars on the pricing page, avatar videos up to 180 s, a Product Avatar that holds or presents your product from your photo, and voice cloning. Their site also lists 30+ languages, an API and a plugin for ChatGPT, Codex and Claude.
If you want UGC ads with a presenter holding your real product, or a canvas where you pick every model yourself, TopView does more than adkix.
- You want an avatar presenting your real product.
- You want to pick the video model and edit each shot on a canvas.
- You also make short films or series.
- Your team works with shared seats.
Why adkix for an ad that tells a story
On an open canvas, the story is up to you. adkix starts with it: it reads your brand, then suggests story angles and visual styles. You choose; it draws a cast and locations that stay consistent from shot to shot, writes the script, records the voice-over with ElevenLabs and films every shot with AI video models.
The video comes out edited, with music and word-by-word titles, as a 9:16 MP4 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. You review and edit each step before spending credits, on the site or from your AI assistant (MCP server, REST API, Claude skill).
adkix has no avatar catalogue and no presenter holding your real product: shots are generated, and they tell a situation rather than show the product exactly.
