Today, 84% of consumers say that watching a video has influenced them to buy a product, which makes it increasingly crucial that retailers adopt a video-first commerce strategy. The addition of AI ClipHero makes it easier than ever for retailers of all sizes to meet the growing demand for engaging, interactive explainer videos if they are already doing live sales. The new AI feature is available on CommentSold’s turnkey platform today and imminently available on the company’s other product lines.

AI ClipHero’s features include:

Product-Centric Content Extraction: The AI ClipHero self-learning AI identifies the most crucial and interesting sections from a longer livestream, leading to relevant clips that quickly convey product features and benefits.

Automatic Captions: AI ClipHero uses speech recognition to instantly generate active captions, expanding content accessibility and creating eye-catching text overlays for silent scrollers.

Integration with PopClips for Seamless Sharing: Sellers can seamlessly import AI-generated clips into CommentSold’s PopClips technology to automatically place videos on product details pages (PDP’s) and in the TikTok-like shoppable feed on sellers’ mobile apps.

Mobile and Social Optimization: AI ClipHero has a unique ability to identify potentially “viral” content based on the AI's analysis of millions of minutes worth of video clips, rating clips in the order of presumed virality in its future iterations.

AI ClipHero is the latest in a stream of new features from CommentSold, closely following the release of the unique shoppable video clips, PopClips. With this foray into AI, CommentSold is redoubling its commitment to providing customers with the latest and most powerful video commerce technology.

“AI-powered content generation is already storming through the retail industry, having a profound impact on ways products are showcased to shoppers; with AI ClipHero, we’re giving our customers a competitive advantage and a mighty multiplier of their existing content without additional effort,” said Filip Vitek, Executive Vice President of AI and Data at CommentSold. “AI ClipHero is only the beginning of a long list of generative AI tools that we have in store for them this year.”

“This is the moment where we leapfrog the rest of the industry to establish Videeo & CommentSold as the indisputable leader in video commerce,” said Gautam Goswami, CEO of CommentSold.
