What Is Amazon AI Creative Studio?
Amazon AI Creative Studio is a self-service creative platform from Amazon Ads that lets advertisers generate image, video, and audio ads using AI directly inside the Amazon Ads ecosystem.

Key Features and Capabilities of Creative Studio
Amazon AI Creative Studio includes several AI-driven tools that help advertisers create, test, and deploy ad creatives faster across Amazon Ads.
Amazon AI Image Generator

The Amazon AI image generator transforms standard product photos into lifestyle and contextual visuals designed for Amazon ad placements.
Key capabilities include:
- Turning white-background product shots into lifestyle scenes
- Adjusting environments, lighting, surfaces, and moods
- Generating multiple variations for A/B testing
From a performance perspective, Amazon Ads and agency studies consistently show that lifestyle imagery can increase CTR by 20 to 30% compared to plain product images, particularly for Sponsored Brands and Brand Store placements.

Video Creation

Creative Studio’s video generator allows advertisers to create short-form video ads using existing product images and AI-generated scenes.
Advertisers can:
- Generate multiple video versions per product
- Add text overlays and background music
- Format videos for Sponsored Brands Video and Amazon DSP
These videos help explain products visually without requiring professional video production.
Amazon reports that video ads drive higher engagement and improved product understanding, especially for competitive categories like beauty, home, and electronics. This is particularly effective when paired with a well-structured Amazon Sponsored Brand Ads strategy that leverages video placements at the top of search.
Audio and Enhanced Media (Voiceovers and Licensed Music Integration)
Amazon AI Creative Studio supports AI-generated audio ads, including scripts, voiceovers, and licensed music.
These audio ads can be used across Amazon DSP, Alexa-enabled devices, and streaming inventory to reach shoppers through voice and audio-first placements.
AI Gallery and Templates

The AI Gallery serves as an inspiration hub with pre-built examples of high-performing creatives.
Advertisers can:
- Browse real AI-generated ads
- Reuse proven prompts
- Launch new creatives using “try this example” workflows
This significantly reduces creative friction and speeds up ideation for lean teams.
Editing and Customization

Creative Studio allows in-platform editing of AI-generated assets.
You can refine:
- Text overlays and messaging
- Visual styles and color tones
- Aspect ratios for different placements
This ensures creatives stay on-brand while still benefiting from AI-driven speed. When combined with strong Amazon A+ Content, brands can create a cohesive visual experience from ads to product detail pages.
Unlimited Asset Storage and Library
All generated creatives are saved to a centralized asset library inside Amazon Ads.
Benefits include:
- Unlimited storage for creative variations
- Faster reuse across campaigns
- Easier creative refresh cycles
This supports continuous testing, which is critical as ad fatigue increases across Amazon placements. Brands that extend these visuals into their Amazon Storefront optimization strategy often see stronger cross-ASIN engagement and longer session duration.
Conversational Creative Assistant (Agentic AI)

Creative Studio includes a conversational AI assistant that helps advertisers generate creative concepts, visuals, and ad-ready assets through a chat interface.
Advertisers can use it to:
- Request taglines and creative ideas
- Generate storyboards and visual concepts
- Prepare assets for specific Amazon ad formats
beBOLD Digital Expert Tip: Use the creative assistant after optimizing your product listings. Strong PDPs significantly improve AI output quality.
How It Works: Implementation Guide for Amazon Sellers
Amazon AI Creative Studio is designed around a conversational, step-by-step workflow. Sellers interact with Creative Studio as an AI creative partner that guides ideation, creation, refinement, and deployment within Amazon Ads.
1. Access Creative Studio and Start a Chat
Sellers begin by signing into their Amazon Ads account and navigating to Creative Studio. Start a chat with the AI creative assistant, which serves as the primary interface for generating and managing creatives.
2. Provide Product and Campaign Inputs
Advertisers then provide the AI with key inputs to guide creative generation, including:
- Product ASINs or product URLs
- Campaign objectives such as awareness, consideration, or sales
- Brand guidelines, existing ad examples, or target audiences
These inputs help the AI align creative outputs with both brand standards and campaign goals.
3. Generate Creative Concepts and Storyboards
Using the provided inputs, the AI generates creative concepts, taglines, and visual ideas while explaining the rationale behind each recommendation. For video assets, the AI builds storyboard-style scene outlines, while for images it creates new visual variations such as lifestyle or seasonal themes based on existing product photos.
This concept-first approach allows sellers to evaluate direction before finalizing assets.
4. Customize, Refine, and Enhance Assets
Advertisers refine creatives directly within the platform by:
- Editing scenes, visuals, and text elements
- Requesting new variations or additional scenes via chat
- Adding AI-generated music or voiceovers
- Using timeline-style editing tools to fine-tune video flow
This stage combines AI efficiency with human judgment to ensure brand alignment.
5. Generate Creative Concepts and Visuals
Using the provided inputs, Creative Studio generates multiple creative directions, including:
- Lifestyle images optimized for Sponsored Brands and Store placements
- Ad-ready image formats sized for different placements
- Early concepts that can be reused across image, video, or audio formats
Most sellers can produce multiple variations per ASIN in minutes, making it easier to test creative angles quickly.
6. Review, Refine, and Align to Brand Standards
Advertisers then review AI-generated assets and make refinements directly in the platform by:
- Adjusting visual style, backgrounds, and messaging
- Selecting placements and formats
- Ensuring brand consistency across campaigns and product detail pages
This step is where human oversight ensures differentiation and brand clarity.
7. Deploy Across Amazon Advertising Placements
Once finalized, creatives can be published directly into live campaigns, including:
- Sponsored Brands
- Sponsored Display
- Brand Stores
- Amazon DSP
Because everything happens within Amazon Ads, sellers avoid the delays typically caused by exporting files or coordinating with third-party tools.
