AI Videos for Your Website: A Hero Video Without a Crew
A short, professional video on your homepage that makes the business feel bigger than it is — made in days, not months.
A website with motion feels alive; a wall of text feels like a brochure. But commissioning a brand video is a five-figure project for most agencies, so small-business sites go without. TeamDay's video producer can make a short hero or product video from a written brief, and you direct it from chat like a client — minus the invoice.
How it works
- 1
Brief Reel like you would an agency
Tell Reel what the video is for and what feeling it should leave — "15 seconds for the homepage, show the bakery coming to life in the morning." Reel writes a short script and a scene plan, and you approve the plan before production starts.
- 2
Reel produces the scenes
Reel generates each scene with Seedance 2, ByteDance's video model built into TeamDay — strong at coherent multi-scene stories, at a listed estimate of $0.10 to $0.20 per clip. Stills from Iris can anchor scenes so your product or space stays true to life.

Assembly: music, pacing, final cut
Reel adds music (and narration, if the video needs it), then cuts the clips into one file sized for the web. You review it in chat; changes are a sentence, not a change order.

Put it on your site
Approve the final cut and download the video file, ready for your homepage or product page. Most site builders accept it directly. Refreshing it next season is a new chat, not a new production budget.

Frequently asked questions
Can AI make a hero video for my website?
Yes. Short, atmospheric brand videos are one of the best fits for current AI video: Reel scripts the scenes, generates them with Seedance 2, and assembles the final cut with music. Reel has shipped an 18-second brand film in three scenes for about $2 in model costs.
How much does an AI website video cost compared to an agency?
Model costs are listed at $0.10 to $0.20 per Seedance 2 clip in TeamDay, so a finished short video typically runs a few dollars in generation. A comparable agency-produced brand video commonly starts around $5,000. The honest tradeoff: AI video suits short, mood-driven pieces, not complex live-action shoots.
How long should a website hero video be?
Ten to twenty seconds, looping, usually without sound on autoplay. That matches how these videos are built in TeamDay: a few 4-15 second Seedance 2 scenes cut together, with music optional since many visitors watch muted.
Can the video show my actual shop or product?
Yes — anchor it with real images. Seedance 2 accepts a starting frame, so a photo of your product or storefront (or a faithful still Iris makes from your photo) becomes the opening image the video animates from. You reject anything that drifts from reality during review.
