Two product bets
ReeltyPro posture
Keep the listing photograph as the authority. Label non-AI motion honestly. Use AI only where it is explicit. Fail closed when AI depth checks cannot finish. Stage furniture into empty living-room floor area without rewriting walls and openings.
AutoReel posture (public)
Upload or import listing photos, choose orientation, music, and branding, then generate short listing videos with optional VFX such as twilight, staging, pencil sketch, lifestyle people, and more. AutoReel’s own v25 notes describe earlier hallucination failure modes and ask agents to inspect results.
Live ReeltyPro tiers today
Live
Standard effects
Push-in (default), push-out, or gentle pan plus crossfades from original photos only. Not AI. Music and 16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1 included.
Live
AI depth
Depth-based motion from original photo pixels. Selected scenes must pass checks; a failed AI depth video returns its credit instead of silently shipping ordinary zoom as AI.
Gated
Premium sketch reveal
Sketch reveal of the original photograph. Visible on Create as a gated card while env flags stay off; not customer-ready and not for sale. Not a generative pencil restyle of a new scene.
Live
Compact staging
Empty living-room photos only: Modern sofa and low coffee table. Sold separately from video. Full-room rebuild stays private and off.
Where the offers diverge
| Topic | ReeltyPro | AutoReel (public)Docs reviewed September 10, 2026[1] |
|---|---|---|
| Motion catalog | Standard effects plus AI depth. Orbits and large VFX catalogs are not offered. | Published camera motions include push-in, push-out, orbit left/right, and auto; orbits require AI engine v25. |
| VFX breadth | No day-to-twilight, lifestyle people, house-drop, or similar invention-heavy effects in the live offer. | API documents types such as day-to-twilight, virtual staging, pencil-sketch, lifestyle, and others. |
| Sketch treatment | Premium sketch is a gated reveal of the source photo, not a customer-ready generative restyle. | Pencil-sketch appears in the public VFX enum as a viral sketch-style effect. |
| Staging scope | Compact sofa and table on empty living-room floor; source pixels outside furniture stay the room. | Virtual staging VFX and photo-edit staging styles are marketed across room types, including replace-furniture paths. |
| When AI cannot finish | AI depth fails closed and returns the video credit. Standard effects stay labeled Standard, never as a silent AI substitute. | Inspect every motion and edit; AutoReel’s own materials warn that invented fixtures can make a video unusable. |
| Listing photo intake | Create accepts upload, ZIP, sample listing, and paste of a public Zillow or Redfin link. Realtor.com may block server fetch; use the listing-photo bookmarklet on an open gallery tab, or upload/ZIP instead. Rights checkbox required. Not an MLS or partner feed. | Upload or import listing photos (public materials cite Realtor.com one-click; reviews also mention Zillow and Dropbox). |
Questions agents ask
- Why not match AutoReel’s full VFX list?
- Breadth increases invention risk. ReeltyPro competes on property continuity and honest labels for Standard vs AI options, not on effect count.
- Is Premium sketch available to buy today?
- No. Create shows it as a gated preview card so agents know the fidelity-first sketch path exists, but purchase and render stay off until real-listing playback review and customer-ready sign-off.
- Does staging replace my whole room?
- The live offer places a compact Modern sofa and table into empty living-room floor area. It is not a full-room redesign.
- Can I paste a listing link instead of uploading?
- Yes for public Zillow and Redfin pages on Create. Realtor.com often needs the listing-photo bookmarklet when server fetch is blocked. ZIP and multi-file upload always work. Confirm you have rights to use the photos before generate.
