Turn Static Listings Into Cinematic Booking Experiences

Listing Videos transform your existing listing photos into short, cinematic videos designed to spark emotion, drive direct bookings, and strengthen your brand across every marketing channel.

No shoots. No actors. No production chaos.
Just high-end video, delivered in 24 hours, ready to publish.

Why Do I Need Listing Videos?

Photos no longer do the heavy lifting alone. Travelers discover stays through motion-first platforms, emotional storytelling, and immersive content long before they compare prices.

Listing Videos bridge the gap between static listings and modern travel marketing. They help you show the experience, not just describe it, while staying scalable and cost-controlled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this replace professional video shoots?
In most cases, yes. Listing Videos may not match the absolute peak quality of a full professional shoot, but for around 90 percent of use cases they are more than good enough.

They make it possible to generate videos per listing, per season, per Ideal Customer Profile, and all combinations in between, at a fraction of the cost of traditional production.

For flagship properties or brand campaigns, one professional shoot can still make sense. For the rest of the portfolio, Listing Videos are usually more than sufficient.
Will this work if my photos are not perfect?
Yes. Listing Videos are built to work with real-world listing photos, not studio-perfect assets. Motion, pacing, and storytelling compensate for minor imperfections and elevate perceived quality. Results improve further when paired with Photo Improvement or Listing Optimization, but they are not required.
Is this supported on Airbnb or Booking.com?
OTAs do not support video today. Listing Videos are built for direct booking websites, social media, ads, email marketing, and owner acquisition. If and when OTAs enable video, your assets are already ready. This is a future-proof content investment.
Will guests feel misled by generated video?
No, as long as it is done responsibly. Listing Videos never invent amenities, layouts, or experiences. They reflect the real property using existing photos and ethical controls. Guests already question heavily staged traditional content. Transparency and accuracy matter more than the production method.
How much effort is required from my team?
Almost none. You select the listing and optional variants, review the result, and approve it. There is no scripting, editing, coordination, or production management. This makes video viable at portfolio scale for the first time.
Do I have control over the final result?
Yes. Creation is fully automated, but every Listing Video is reviewed and approved before being published on a Smily direct booking website.

This ensures brand consistency, accurate representation, and full confidence before anything goes live.

You get the speed and scale of automation, without losing control over what guests and owners see.
