UGC Ad Production

Use this skill to plan, script, generate, edit, and review short-form ads that should feel native to creator-led feeds while still being truthful, substantiated, disclosed, licensed, and ready for platform review.

This is production guidance, not legal advice. For regulated products, material performance claims, health/finance/children/political content, synthetic human likeness, or unclear disclosure duties, stop and ask the client for legal/compliance approval before producing or publishing.

Operating principle

UGC ads work because they borrow the cues of spontaneous creator content: handheld framing, first-person speech, product proximity, lived details, casual edits, and plain-language proof. Do not let the style imply a false source, false experience, fake review, undisclosed sponsorship, or unrealistic result.

Treat every UGC ad as four linked artifacts:

1. The creative: hook, story, demo, proof, CTA.
2. The evidence file: substantiation for every objective express or implied claim.
3. The rights file: who appears, what assets are used, where they may run, for how long, and whether paid amplification/whitelisting is permitted.
4. The disclosure file: commercial relationship disclosure, AI/synthetic media disclosure, and platform upload settings.

If any artifact is missing, ship only a clearly labeled draft for client review, not a publish-ready ad.
