Five headlines on the same layout tell you what the words do; the same product on five backgrounds tells you what the scene does. Ad variations keeps everything else fixed so each test answers one question.
Every variation is anchored to your product photo, so the product stays accurate across the whole set, and each headline is lettered in the ad’s own type style.
How it works
1Upload the ad that works, or the one you want to test against. One clear product and a short headline give the cleanest variations.
2Say what to vary: headline, background, color, product angle, format. Kive changes only that.
3Pick the variations you like, get them in the formats your channels need, run them against the original, repeat from the winner.
Ads to start your next test from
Packshot ads put one clean product on a plain background and let a headline, price or offer do the selling. These ideas show where the copy sits around the product so the ad reads in a second.
Each headline is lettered in the ad’s own type style, so the only thing that changes is the message.

Common questions
Kive generates variations from an ad you upload: it keeps the layout, product and brand feel and changes what you ask for, such as the headline, the background or the format. Because every variation is anchored to your product photo, the product stays accurate across the whole set.
One thing at a time. Headline first, then background or scene, then format. A variation that changes everything at once cannot tell you which change moved the numbers.
Use it as a reference for layout and mood, with your product, your brand and your copy in it. Logos, brand names and the original text stay out. Reusing an idea or a layout is generally fine; the original artwork belongs to its owner. This is general information, not legal advice.
Yes. The Kive Free plan comes with credits once you verify your email, enough for a first set of variations before you choose a plan.
