What is Pikadditions AI?
Pikadditions is an AI video editor that adds a person, animal, product or object from a photo into a video you already have. You upload a clip and one image, write a short instruction, and Pikadditions returns the same video with the new subject inside it, moving naturally with the scene.
Your original footage stays as you shot it: the camera move, the people, the background and the timing all stay the same. Pikadditions AI reads the light, perspective and motion of every frame, so the added subject casts real shadows, sits at the right size and follows the camera as if it was there when you filmed.

Pikadditions Features
What makes a Pikadditions video look like it was filmed that way.
Keeps Your Original Video
Only the new subject changes.
Pikadditions edits your clip instead of making a new one. The people, the background, the camera move and the timing stay as you filmed them, and the subject you add moves inside that scene.
Same framing and camera path
Same people and background
Same length as your clip
OriginalPikadditions
Matches Light, Shadows and Reflections
It looks lit by the same sun.
Pikadditions reads where the light comes from in every frame. The added subject picks up the same color of light, casts a shadow in the right direction and shows up in reflections on glass and wood.
Shadows fall the right way
Color and brightness match the scene
Reflections on shiny surfaces
Hover to zoom
Moves With the Camera and the Scene
Handheld, push in or pan, it stays in place.
When the camera pushes in, pans or shakes, the added subject keeps its spot and its scale. People and animals walk, wave and react with natural motion instead of sliding over the footage.
Stays locked to the scene
Right size as the camera moves
Natural movement for people and animals
Add Anyone or Anything From One Photo
One photo is all Pikadditions needs.
A full body photo of a friend, a product shot, a pet picture or a cartoon character is enough. Pikadditions keeps the face, colors and details from your photo and fits them into the video.

What You Can Add with Pikadditions
Pick an idea and its prompt goes straight into the Pikadditions generator at the top of the page.
Add a Person to a Video
Bring a friend, a family member or yourself into a clip you already filmed, standing, walking or waving with everyone else.
“Add the person from the image walking in from the right and standing next to the man, then waving at the camera.”
Add a Pet or Animal to a Video
Put your dog on the sofa, a cat on the desk or a wild animal somewhere it never was. Pikadditions matches the fur, light and shadows to the scene.
“Add the animal from the image sitting on the sofa next to the woman, looking at the camera.”
Add a Product to a Video
Place your bottle, sneaker or gadget into lifestyle footage for ads and social posts, without a new shoot.
“Place the product from the image on the table in front of the camera, with the same light and shadow as the room.”
Add a Cartoon Character to a Video
Drop a mascot, a toy or a drawn character into real footage and let it react to what happens in the scene.
“Add the cartoon character from the image sitting on the edge of the cup and waving its arms.”
Add an Object or Prop to a Video
Give someone sunglasses, a hat or a drink, or add a cake, flowers or balloons to the moment you captured.
“Add the coconut drink and the beach ball from the image next to the guinea pig on the sun lounger.”
Add Vehicles and Large Objects
Roll a car, a boat or a tank into an empty street, beach or warehouse, and Pikadditions keeps the scale right.
“Add the tank from the image rolling slowly into the middle of the warehouse through the sunbeams.”

Pikadditions Pricing
Buy a credit pack once and pay only for the videos you make. No subscription.
You upload a video and a photo, then describe where the subject goes. Pikadditions AI builds the subject into every frame of your clip, matching the light, perspective and camera motion, and keeps the rest of the video as it was.
Every 5 seconds of video costs 2 credits, so a 10 second clip costs 4. Credit packs start at $9.90 for 20 credits and you buy them once, with no subscription. The pricing page lists every plan.
Pikadditions works with one time credit packs instead of a subscription, so you pay only for the videos you make. The smallest pack is $9.90 and covers ten 5 second videos.
You can use clips of 5 to 15 seconds in MP4 or MOV. If your video is longer, the built in trimmer lets you choose the part to use before you generate.
Use a JPG, PNG or WebP photo of one clear subject, up to 12 MB. People, pets, products, cartoon characters and objects all work, and a plain background gives the cleanest result.
A Pikadditions video is ready in 3 minutes on average. You can stay on the page or come back later and find it in My Videos.
