Pinprick

AI UGC ads for Shopify stores, updated August 2026

AI UGC ads for Shopify stores: finished ads every week, no creator sourcing.

Pinprick is an AI UGC ads agency for Shopify stores. You send one brief with your store URL and the products that matter; we write the scripts within 48 hours, produce the ads with AI under human creative direction, and deliver finished, test-ready UGC ads inside a week, then keep a weekly drop running into the Meta or TikTok account you already have. No creator outreach, no shipping product to strangers, no usage-rights renewals. For eligible stores the price is $0 per ad: we take a percentage of ad spend instead, with unlimited production and unlimited paid usage rights.

/ The work

(01)

What we make for Shopify stores

  1. 01

    The restock order

    A customer films the second order arriving, not the first. The hook is the reorder itself: why they came back, what ran out, what they added to the cart this time. Works for consumables, basics, anything with a natural repurchase cycle.

  2. 02

    Cart-to-doorstep

    A short walkthrough from product page to unboxing on the kitchen counter, with the shipping window shown as it actually happened. Useful for stores where delivery speed or packaging is part of the product experience.

  3. 03

    The comparison haul

    One presenter, three options side by side, including yours. Honest about the tradeoffs, clear about who each one is for. Built for stores competing on a crowded Amazon search term where the buyer is already comparing.

  4. 04

    Founder FAQ from real tickets

    We pull the questions your support inbox actually gets (sizing, materials, returns, how it ships) and script a founder-style answer to each. Five short ads from one brief, each one answering an objection before it reaches checkout.

  5. 05

    Bundle math

    A presenter builds the bundle on screen and talks through why the pieces go together. Keeps the offer language exact to what the store shows, so the ad and the landing page never disagree.

  6. 06

    Review read-aloud

    A presenter reads real reviews (with permission, names removed) and reacts. Turns the proof already sitting on your product page into video the feed will actually stop for.

/ What matters in this category

(02)

Product truth

The ad has to match the product page: the variant, the colorway, the size, the price shown at checkout. We build scenes around your actual SKUs, rendered at true scale, so nobody lands on a page that contradicts the video.

Plugs into your account

Exports are named and sized for Meta, TikTok, and YouTube, with AI-disclosure metadata already attached. You upload, we iterate. Nobody needs access to your Shopify admin.

Weekly iteration, not a one-off batch

Winners get new hooks, new openers, and new formats the following week. The drop is steered by what your ad account rewards, not by a fixed deliverables list.

Offer discipline

Discount codes, free-shipping thresholds, and bundle prices are read straight from the brief and checked before delivery, so the ad never promises something the cart does not honor.

/ Questions

(04)

Do I need to give you access to my Shopify store?+

No. We work from your store URL, your product pages, and the brief. If you want us to read your reviews or support tickets for the FAQ and review-read-aloud concepts, you can export them or paste them into the brief. Nobody on our side touches your admin.

Can the ads use my actual product, not a stand-in?+

Yes. Your product, packaging, and variants are rendered into the scenes: held, unboxed, poured, worn, depending on what it is. Human creative directors check scale and detail before anything ships. If a product detail is wrong, the ad does not go out.

What happens after the first batch?+

The first batch is the test. Once your account shows which hooks and formats are getting attention, the next weekly drop iterates on those: new openers on the winner, a new format on the same angle, fresh concepts where a theme is tiring. Unlimited production means there is no cap on iterations.

We sell on Shopify and Amazon. Does that change anything?+

Only the exports. Amazon has its own sizing and content rules, and we deliver platform-ready files for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Amazon from the same brief. The comparison-haul concept in particular tends to suit brands that compete on an Amazon search term.

How does the $0 per ad pricing work for a Shopify store?+

For eligible stores we take a percentage of ad spend instead of charging per ad. Eligibility is mostly about ad spend: the model only works when there is meaningful budget behind the ads. There is no retainer, no per-ad invoice, and no minimum term. The check takes five minutes on a call, and the details are on the pricing page.
