Choosing a template

How do I pick the right AI video template?

Open the Templates page, pick a template from the "New · October 24" row (less than a week old), and check its sample video for the vibe you want. The first 72 hours of a trend carry most of the reach — a template from this week is almost always a better bet than last month's most popular one.

Which trending templates work best in 2026?

Face-swap dance trends, AI hug clips, meme reenactments and short "glow up" transformations consistently out-perform other formats on TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts in 2026. The "Most popular" row is ranked by what people actually generate on ViralVideoAI, which tracks the platforms within hours.

How many photos do I need per template?

Each template card shows the required photo count — most trends need one portrait photo of yourself, a handful ask for one of you plus one of a friend or partner, and a few accept pets. ViralVideoAI refuses templates that need a face if you upload a landscape or a logo.

Can I preview a template before I pay?

Yes. Every template page shows a real example video rendered with the same prompt chain you will run, plus the exact credit cost on the Generate button. You only spend credits after you tap Generate and the render queue accepts your job.

How often are new templates added?

ViralVideoAI publishes new trending templates several times a week, usually within a day of a trend breaking out on TikTok. The homepage "New this week" row is the fastest way to see what just went live, and the Templates page always sorts the newest first.

Final recommendation

The fastest path to your first viral AI video

If you have never made a viral AI video, start with a template from this week’s New this week row and the Weekly plan at $3.99 for the first week. Pick a trend that is less than seven days old, add one clear, well-lit photo of yourself, and post the 9:16 file the same day you generate it — that is where ViralVideoAI’s advantage is the largest, and where the algorithm is still rewarding the format.
