Show HN: Clone. Swap your products in any viral reel

Clone is an AI ad cloning tool that lets fashion brands swap their products into proven viral reels. Each video costs $10 and takes 15 minutes to generate, with no subscription. By rebuilding a viral reel frame-by-frame with the user's products, Clone reduces the risk of ad creative testing.

The receipts

Watch the clones.

Left: a reel that already won the internet. Right: the same reel wearing our customers' clothes — same cuts, same hook, new brand. Hover any card to play both sides.

— clones on the wall

How it works

Three steps. Zero guessing.

From-scratch AI ads are a lottery — brief, keyframes, animation, prayer. Clone skips the gamble: start from a reel the internet already approved, and just add your products.

STEP 01

Pick a proven reel

Your own past hit. A competitor's reel that's spiking. Anything whose numbers you envy — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, anywhere. If it performed once, it's a template.

STEP 02

Upload your garments

Flatlays or product shots — whatever you have. Clone reads the reference, works out how many garments the edit needs, and asks for more if you're short.

STEP 03

Press Clone

Clone splits the reference into shots, maps a product to every cut, puts it all on the AI model you picked, and rebuilds the reel frame-by-frame. ~15 minutes later: a proven structure, wearing your brand.

The odds

Stop asking "will it work?" Start asking "did it work?"

Every "new creative" is a bet placed blind. A viral reel is a bet the market already paid out — proven hook, proven pacing, proven demand. Clone lets you run that playbook with your products, at ~$10 a test:

FAQ

What you're probably thinking.

How do I know the cloned ad will actually perform?

Honestly: nobody can promise ROAS — anyone who does is selling a horoscope. What Clone changes is your starting odds. Instead of betting on a structure no audience has ever seen, you start from cuts, pacing, and a hook that already earned six figures of likes in the wild. Then you do what good media buyers do: test cheap, kill losers at $10, and scale the one that prints.

Will it look like AI slop?

Slop is what happens when AI invents an ad from a brief — generate keyframes, animate them, sync the music, pray. Clone never invents. It maps your products onto a human-made reel that already went viral, so the output inherits the reference's polish, pacing, and hook. That's the whole trick.

Can it match my brand aesthetic?

You bring the products. You choose the model and pose. The reference dictates the vibe — and you chose the reference. You stay in control of every input.

Why a $200 credit pack?

Because one test is a coin flip — twenty is a strategy. Clone is built for testing volume: the $200 pack works out to about 20 videos at roughly $10 each — the price of a single influencer video, except it's twenty shots at a winner. Credits never expire, and failed clones get fixed or refunded, so the pack never burns a hole.

What if my clone comes out wrong?

Flag it. Our team looks at every flagged clone. If it's fixable, we redo it — free of charge, no questions. If it turns out to be something Clone genuinely can't handle yet, we refund that video. Either way, a failed clone never costs you money.

Who's behind this?

Clone is built by Quinn — the AI studio fashion brands already use for on-model product photography. Garment fidelity is our whole personality; Clone points it at video.

Last call

That reel you saved last night? It's your ad now.

Paste the link. Upload your garments. Fifteen minutes from now it's wearing your clothes.

P.S. Every campaign is one of two bets: $200 and 14 days for one influencer video that might work — or the same $200 for twenty videos built on structures that already did. Same money. Twenty times the shots. That's the whole pitch.

P.P.S. Good artists copy. Great artists steal. The best artists clone.
