How to add your own ad to your clips: upload it once, it lands in a quiet moment
Blog · · Vyexa team · 3 min read
You can put your own ad inside every clip you make with Vyexa. Upload a banner or a short video once, and it appears as a full-width strip in a quiet moment of each new clip, never in the first 3 seconds. You do not need a video editor, and you do not have to place it clip by clip.
This suits anyone who cuts a lot of clips and has something to promote: a course, a product, a channel, a client's offer. It also fits clips cut from a webinar recording.
How it works
- Open Clip ads in your dashboard menu.
- Upload a horizontal image or a short video.
- Pick the position: top, middle or bottom.
- Pick the moment: Auto, Middle or End.
- Save. Your new clips come out with the ad. Clips that are already finished do not change.
Every option looks for a pause. Auto searches most of the clip for the quietest spot, Middle and End search near those points, so the ad does not land in the middle of a word. On a short clip a banner stays on screen for less time. A clip under about 6 seconds comes out without the ad.
The file decides what happens to the clip
- Photo. The banner shows up on top and goes away. You choose how long it stays, 2 to 15 seconds, 5 by default. The clip keeps playing and its length does not change.
- Video without sound. The same: it plays on top and the clip keeps going.
- Video with sound. The clip stops on a frame, your ad plays with its sound, then the clip continues from the same point. The clip gets longer by the length of the ad.
Pausing is what makes a video with sound work: two voices at once would be noise. If your video has a sound track that is actually silent, we treat it as a video without sound.
What file to prepare
- Best size: 1080×384 pixels. On a vertical clip that takes 20% of the height.
- Horizontal only, at least 720 pixels wide. The strip takes its height from the proportions of your file, up to 40% of the frame, and nothing gets cropped. Vertical and square files are rejected because they would cover the clip.
- Images: PNG, JPG or WebP, up to 5 MB.
- Videos: MP4, MOV or WebM, 2 to 15 seconds, up to 50 MB.
- Keep the text large and away from the edges. On a phone the banner is only a few centimetres wide.
No ad yet? Ask an AI to make one
On the same page, press Prompt for AI. Choose Banner or Video and you get a ready prompt with the sizes and design rules already filled in. Copy it into an image or video generator, write in the brackets what you advertise, your headline, the button text and the language, then upload the result.
The prompt is in English because generators tend to follow it better. Your ad can be in any language: you set that in the brackets.

Good to know
- The ad goes on new clips only. To change it, replace the file, and the next clips get the new one. You can also turn it off with one switch and keep your settings.
- Your ad is your responsibility. Check the rules of the platforms where you post, including how they ask you to label paid promotion.
- We have not measured how ads affect views or clicks, so we give no figure. Compare a few clips with and without the ad on your own channel.
