What each tool is
Longneckhorse is an AI ad generator for shops and brands that sell with Meta ads. You start from a template, a prompt or your own product photo, pick an AI model and get an image or a video. From the same dashboard you send the ad to Meta Ads, post it to Facebook and Instagram, and see sales from your Shopify or WooCommerce store next to what you spent.
Arcads is an AI tool for UGC style video ads. You pick from more than 1,000 AI actors or create your own avatar, and the actor talks about your product, holds it, shows your app or wears your clothes. Its studio also has video and image models such as Seedance, Kling and Nano Banana, and tools to translate, caption and edit videos.
Feature by feature
UGC video and AI actors
This is Arcads’ strength. Its library has more than 1,000 AI actors, with emotion control and translation into more than 30 languages. Longneckhorse makes UGC style clips with video models like Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1 and Seedance 2.0, but it has no ready library of actors.
Image ads
Longneckhorse makes image ads as a core feature, from templates, prompts or your product photo, in 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 and 16:9. Arcads has image models like Nano Banana and GPT Image in its studio, but its site is built around video.
Templates
Longneckhorse has hundreds of templates made from real ads that went viral, each with its prompt saved, so you only swap in your product. Arcads offers ready-made ad presets built for performance marketers.
Launching and posting
In Longneckhorse you send ads to Meta Ads and post them to Facebook and Instagram from the same screen where you made them. Arcads’ terms describe publishing videos to TikTok through an integration, and its site does not list launching on Meta Ads.
Tracking sales
Longneckhorse shows Shopify or WooCommerce sales and Google Analytics visitors next to your Meta ad spend. Arcads does not list sales tracking, so you would follow results in Ads Manager or in your store.
Pricing
Longneckhorse shows every price on its pricing page and has a free plan. Arcads has a free trial and shows its plans after you sign up. Its terms say each plan gives credits for videos, and credits left at the end of a period are lost.
Pricing
Longneckhorse has four plans. Free costs €0 and includes 300 tokens a month, one website and one ad account. Creator costs €19 a month, or €13 a month billed yearly, with 3,000 tokens. Pro costs €49, or €39 yearly, with 10,000 tokens. Enterprise costs €129, or €99 yearly, with 30,000 tokens. Every plan includes image and video creation, and the creator shows the token cost before you generate.
Arcads has no public pricing page. You see the plans after you sign up, and a free trial is available. Each plan gives a number of credits for generating videos. Unused credits do not carry over to the next period, except when you upgrade to a bigger plan.
