Every "best agencies" list on an agency's website ranks that agency first. We would rather show our work.
Roundups like this one are usually written by a company on the list, and they usually put that company at number one. Ours would too, if we ranked. So we do not rank. We compare seven options across three business models, state only what each one publishes about itself, and leave the choice to the fit between their model and your product.
Evolve Media Agency is one of the companies in this comparison, and the author, Ian Smith, runs it. We have a direct financial interest in you choosing us. To limit that bias, the list is grouped by business model instead of ranked, other companies are described only from their own websites as checked October 15, 2026, and section 11 covers when to hire no one. No company paid to be included, and none were asked for input. Prices change; confirm on each site.

How We Chose These Companies
We included companies that sell product video to ecommerce brands as a defined service, publish enough about their offer to compare, and represent one of the three models brands actually choose between.
A live website with current services, checked October 15, 2026.
Product or ecommerce video is a defined offer, not a one-off service.
Enough published detail on services or pricing to describe them fairly without guessing.
Agency, virtual studio or creator platform, so every type of buyer has a reference point.
What we did not do: we did not hire these companies, test their work side by side, or rate their quality. We cannot fairly judge a competitor's quality, and pretending to would be the bias this format is supposed to avoid. Where a company makes claims about its own results, we label them as its claims.
Many good companies are not on this list, including local studios and freelancers who may suit you better than any of these. Use this as a map of the options, not a ranking of the market.
We also left out AI video generators. They are improving quickly and are useful for B-roll and concept tests, but for a listing video the product on screen has to be the real product, accurately shown. That still means filming it. We cover AI tools separately.
The Three Types Of Video Companies
Amazon product video companies fall into three models. Picking the right model matters more than picking the right company within it.
| Model | How It Works | You Provide | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-service agency | They plan, script, shoot and edit | The product and approvals | Brands without in-house creative direction |
| Virtual studio | You ship the product and direct a remote shoot | The creative direction | Simple, repeatable product shots at volume |
| Creator platform | You brief creators who film at home | The brief, selection and editing review | UGC-style ads and social content at volume |
The difference that matters most for Amazon is who knows the rules. A listing video gets rejected for a price mention, a competitor reference, a claim or a quality problem. An agency that works on Amazon every week should catch those before the shoot. With a virtual studio or creator platform, catching them is usually your job.
The second difference is who writes the script. Agencies usually include it. Studios and platforms usually expect you to bring it, or sell it as an add-on.
The third difference is what you get at the end. An agency typically delivers finished videos, cut to length with captions and music. A virtual studio delivers clips you chose during the shoot, and editing them into a finished video is a separate line item. A creator platform delivers each creator's take, which may need trimming, captions or a reshoot. Before comparing prices, write down the finished files you actually need to upload: a 16:9 listing video, a Sponsored Brands cut, vertical versions for social. Then ask each company what it costs to get exactly those files.
Amazon Video Companies Compared
Here are the seven options side by side, with pricing as each publishes it, checked October 15, 2026. They are listed by model, not ranked.
| Company | Model | Published Pricing | Fits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Evolve Media Agency | Amazon-focused agency | Listing video $395, $695, $895; UGC from $495 | Amazon brands needing script, shoot and Amazon-ready cuts |
| Vidico | Video production agency | Ecommerce shoots from $63 per video | Brands wanting a broad video agency with an ecommerce line |
| Lemonlight | Video production company | Package pricing; rates not on the pages we checked | Brands wanting packaged production across many video types |
| soona | Virtual studio | $93 per video clip base, plus studio fee or membership | Brands that will direct their own simple shoots |
| Billo | UGC creator platform | From $99 per video; no subscription needed | Brands scaling UGC ads, mainly for paid social |
| Insense | UGC and influencer platform | Plans from $500/month; UGC from $100 per video | Brands running ongoing creator programs |
| Amazon Video Builder | Free template tool | Free in the Amazon Ads console | Simple ad videos from existing images |
Published prices are not comparable one to one. A $93 clip from a virtual studio is a single shot you directed. A $395 to $895 listing video from an agency is a finished, scripted, edited video. A $100 UGC video is one creator's take. Compare by the finished asset you need, not by the lowest number on each site.
Evolve Media Agency (Our Own Agency)
Evolve Media Agency is an Amazon-focused creative agency that produces listing videos, UGC-style videos and Sponsored Brands ad cuts. This is our own company, so read this section as our description of ourselves.
Our published prices, from our pricing page:
- Listing video: Bronze $395 (20 seconds, hand model, solid background), Silver $695 (30 seconds, lifestyle scene), Gold $895 (45 seconds, full-body model and script read).
- UGC review-style video: $495 for 25 seconds; packs of three for $1,295 and six for $2,495.
- Amazon Ad Cut Pack: $295 for three Sponsored Brands cuts from existing footage.
- Photo and video combos and bundles from $595.
Who we fit: Amazon and Shopify brands, often in the $1 million to $10 million range, that want the script, the Amazon content rules and the cut list handled, and that sell on Amazon first.
Who we do not fit: brands that want to direct every shot themselves at the lowest cost per asset, which a virtual studio does better, and brands that need dozens of creator faces a month for paid social, which a creator platform is built for.
Our Amazon product video page has examples and details.
Vidico And Lemonlight: Production Agencies
Vidico and Lemonlight are video production companies that serve ecommerce among many industries. They are broader than an Amazon-only shop, which can be a strength or a gap depending on what you need.
Vidico. Vidico's pricing page describes brand campaigns, product videos, short-form content and an ecommerce offer for "fast, simple photoshoots," starting from $24 per photo and $63 per video. The page highlights client results such as view counts and brand-recall lifts. Those are Vidico's own claims. Vidico also publishes a product video cost guide that is useful background whoever you hire.
Lemonlight. Lemonlight's retail and ecommerce page describes a model built on "transparent, predetermined video packages" and consistent pricing regardless of client size. Its portfolio lists work labeled for Amazon, Walmart and consumer brands, and it names large clients including Amazon and Walmart. The rates themselves were not on the pages we checked, so you will need a quote.
Ask to see Amazon listing videos specifically, not brand films. Ask who checks the script against Amazon's video rules, and whether they deliver a 16:9 listing cut, a Sponsored Brands cut and vertical versions from the same shoot. A great commercial agency can still deliver a video Amazon rejects.
soona: Virtual Studio
soona is a virtual studio. You ship the product, join the shoot remotely, approve shots in real time and pay for the assets you choose.
Its pricing page lists:
The site also says soona has shot photos and videos for more than 17,000 brands, a figure from soona itself, and offers pre-priced packs for Amazon and Shopify plus a UGC service.
Who it fits: brands with clear creative direction that want simple product clips, such as rotations, close-ups and basic demos, at a predictable per-asset cost. Watch for: a clip is a shot, not a finished listing video. Budget for editing, captions and the script, and plan the Amazon rule check yourself.
To get the most from a virtual studio session, arrive with a shot list. Decide in advance which doubts the video must answer, list the exact shots that answer them, and note the framing for each. A remote session moves fast, and a vague brief turns into a pile of pretty clips that do not add up to a video. Our creative brief template works as a starting point for video shoots too.
Billo And Insense: Creator Platforms
Billo and Insense connect brands with creators who film UGC-style videos at home. They are built mainly for paid social, but the videos can work on Amazon if they are briefed and cut for it.
Billo. Billo's homepage describes itself as a creator marketing platform combining production and ad performance data, and says it is trusted by more than 37,000 brands. It cites an analysis of 1.41 million Meta ads in which Billo ads had an 11% lower cost per acquisition than other ads in the same accounts. That is Billo's own analysis of its own product. Its pricing explainer says videos start at $99 each as of October 2026, with creator pay included, no subscription needed, two revisions and full usage rights once you approve a video. The base price is a raw video without captions or music; length, format, creator tier and extra hooks raise it.
Insense. Insense's pricing page lists a Brand plan at $500 per month billed quarterly and an Agency plan at $800 per month, plus a separate transaction fee on creator payments. Its FAQ says UGC campaigns start at $100 per video, with higher costs for expert creators or raw files. The homepage claims more than 115,000 creators across 57 countries.
Creators film for TikTok and Meta by default: vertical, casual and sometimes with a price or a link mentioned. For Amazon, ask for horizontal takes, ban price and URL mentions in the brief, and review every cut for claims. Our UGC video production page explains how we handle this for Amazon.
Platforms also differ in how much of the work you do. Self-serve plans mean you write briefs, pick creators and review every submission. Managed plans cost more but handle some of that for you. Count the hours honestly when you compare a platform's per-video price with an agency's finished-video price.
Amazon Video Builder And DIY Options
Amazon offers a free Video Builder inside the Amazon Ads console that turns product images and short clips into simple video ads from templates. It costs nothing, and for some brands it is enough to start.
Video Builder sits behind an Amazon Ads login, so we cite it by name rather than linking it. It is aimed at ad creative, not full listing videos, and template videos tend to look like templates. Use it to test whether video ads work for your product before paying for production.
If a template ad built from your existing images performs well in Sponsored Brands, that is a sign a properly produced video is worth testing. If it does nothing, you have learned something useful for free before committing a production budget.
The other DIY route is a phone. Many Amazon products demonstrate themselves: a leak test, a fold, a size check, a before and after. A modern phone, window light and a simple script can produce a listing video that answers shopper doubts. Our step-by-step video guide walks through it.
Freelance marketplaces sit between DIY and an agency. Quality and Amazon knowledge vary widely, so ask for Amazon listing samples and give a tight brief that includes Amazon's content rules.

Book A CallWhich Type Fits Your Brand?
Match the model to your product, your team and your channels. This table is how we would advise a brand that was not going to hire us.
| Your Situation | Best Model | Why |
|---|---|---|
| No creative lead in-house, selling mainly on Amazon | Amazon-focused agency | Script, rules and cuts handled in one place |
| Clear creative direction, simple product | Virtual studio | Lowest cost per shot when you direct |
| Heavy paid social, need many faces | Creator platform | Volume and variety of creators |
| Brand film plus product video | General production agency | Broader cinematic range |
| Testing whether video helps at all | DIY or Video Builder | Learn before you spend |
| One shoot must feed Amazon, TikTok and Meta | Agency with multi-platform cut lists | Planned coverage for every aspect ratio |
Many brands use two models at once: an agency or studio for the core listing video, and a creator platform for ongoing ad variations. That split is often cheaper than asking one company to do both.
Pick the model first. The best company in the wrong model is still the wrong hire.
Questions To Ask Any Video Company
Whichever company you consider, including us, ask these questions before you pay. The answers tell you more than a portfolio.
- Can I see Amazon listing videos you made? Not brand films or TikToks. Listing videos, live on Amazon if possible.
- Who writes the script, and who checks it against Amazon's video rules? Price mentions, competitor references and unsupported claims are the usual rejection reasons.
- What exactly do I receive? Number of finished videos, lengths, aspect ratios, captions, raw footage and revisions.
- Who owns the footage, and are there usage limits? Especially with models and creators, whose usage rights can expire.
- What happens if Amazon rejects the video? Is a re-edit included?
- What is the timeline from product arrival to delivery? Plan around Amazon's review time too.
- Do you return the product? And who pays shipping both ways?
Get the answers in writing. A company that cannot answer the first two questions clearly is a risk on Amazon, however good its reel looks.
Also ask for one reference you can contact, ideally a brand in your category that sells on Amazon. A five-minute call with a past client tells you about communication, deadlines and revisions in a way no portfolio can. Then compare the answers across at least two companies from different models before you decide.
When Not To Hire A Video Company
Do not hire anyone when a phone and an afternoon will answer your shoppers' main doubt. That covers more products than agencies like to admit.
- Your product demonstrates itself in one shot. A leak test or a fold-flat reveal does not need a crew.
- Your account is under three months old. Amazon's Selling Partner Blog says listing video requires a Professional account and three months of selling history. Brand Registry is not required. Until you qualify, a paid video waits in a folder.
- You fill all six image slots and will not drop one. Amazon says video only shows in the main media block when a product has fewer than six images.
- You have usable footage already. A launch video or a creator post may only need a re-edit to Amazon specs.
- You have not read your reviews. Without knowing the doubts the video must answer, any company is guessing.
If none of those apply and you need a finished, Amazon-ready video, compare at least two companies from different models. Our product video service is one option; the others above are real alternatives.
How To Compare Quotes Fairly
Convert every quote into cost per finished, Amazon-ready video. That single number makes an agency, a studio and a creator platform comparable.
A virtual studio clip at $93 is cheap per shot, but a 30-second listing video may need several clips, an edit and captions. A creator video at $100 may need a reshoot if it mentions a price. An agency video costs more upfront but usually arrives finished. None of these is always cheapest. The math depends on how many shots your product needs and how much of the work you will do yourself.
Include your own time honestly. Directing a shoot and reviewing creator cuts takes hours. If those hours are worth more spent elsewhere, the higher quote may be the cheaper option.
Finally, think beyond the first video. A brand that needs a new listing video each quarter, plus monthly ad variations, should price a year of work, not a single order. Memberships, packs and retainers change the math, and so does having one partner who already knows your product and your rejection history.
What To Remember
- Amazon product video companies fall into three models: full-service agencies, virtual studios and UGC creator platforms, plus free and DIY options.
- Evolve Media Agency publishes listing video prices of $395, $695 and $895, and UGC review-style videos from $495; Evolve is the author's own company.
- soona lists a $93 base price per video clip, plus a $149 studio fee per booking or a membership, on its October 2026 pricing page.
- Insense lists plans from $500 a month and UGC from $100 per video, and Billo says its videos start at $99 each with no subscription required.
- Published prices are not comparable one to one: a single clip, a creator take and a finished scripted video are different products.
- The key question for any company is who checks the script against Amazon's video rules, since price mentions, competitor references and claims cause rejections.
- Amazon listing video requires a Professional account and three months of selling history, not Brand Registry, so newer accounts should wait before paying for production.
