Product Overview


Image carousels allow brands with static images to engage users with more content by combining multiple images into a single, interactive asset. By incorporating image carousels into your widgets and feeds, you can showcase your products in a visually appealing and engaging way alongside your videos, encouraging customers to explore more of your content.

Image carousels seamlessly integrate with your existing assets and offer the following features:

  • Include up to 8 images per carousel

  • Automatically tag products from the underlying images

  • Easily add carousels to playlists and use them in widgets, just like images and videos
