Amplifiles overview
Amplifiles is a video tool integrated into Linear that allows agents to create a property presentation video directly in Linear using the listing’s photos.
You don’t need to upload photos separately to Amplifiles or use any external editing software. The video is created as part of your normal listing workflow, and the finished video can be linked back to Linear with just a few clicks.
The Amplifiles–Linear integration does not need to be activated separately. It’s available by default in Linear Store and can be accessed directly from the listing card.
Pricing in brief
You can get started with Amplifiles with one free video that can include up to 8 images.
After that, pricing is based on the number of animated images. The price is per image and transparent (€1.30 / image), and the video length, aspect ratio, or distribution channel does not affect the price.
More detailed pricing information can be found in the FAQ section further down in this article.
Creating a video in Linear
Where to start creating a video
Video creation is started from the listing card in Linear. At the moment, the Amplifiles button is located on the listing card’s Store tab, and in the future it will also be available in the listing’s Photos section.
Opening Amplifiles and signing up
When you click the Amplifiles button in Linear, Amplifiles opens automatically in a tailored onboarding view.
If you don’t have an Amplifiles account yet, you can easily create one in any of the following ways:
- with an email address and password
- with a Google account
- with a Microsoft account
When you sign up, you’ll have the option to create one free video that can include up to 8 images.
Once your account has been created, the same Amplifiles account will be used for all video projects opened from Linear going forward.
Selecting images for the video
When you move to Amplifiles, it automatically recognizes the Linear listing you want to create a video for and pulls in all the images you’ve added to that listing for you to choose from.
Please note:
- You select and arrange the images for the video in Amplifiles. The image order you set in Linear is not transferred to Amplifiles.
- Background images are not supported, and using them in videos is not recommended.
Tip:
- For social media videos, 5–10 images often works well.
- For longer property presentation videos, you can use more images as needed.
Creating the video in Amplifiles
The video is built in the Amplifiles user interface. You can use the service’s default settings or fine-tune the video to suit your needs.
Editing options:
- You’ll get automatic animation suggestions for your images.
- You can also choose the movements for images manually.
- You can choose the video aspect ratio: portrait, landscape, or square.

- You can also upload your own music to the video.
- You can add a text-to-speech voice-over (100+ different voices).
- You can use automatic subtitles.
Branding:
- You can add logos and other visual elements to your videos.
- If your company wants a ready-made template that matches your brand and that you can easily select for all videos, please contact Amplifiles directly. A ready-made template helps keep your videos visually consistent without extra tweaking.
On average, creating a video takes about 5 minutes.
Saving the video back to Linear
Once the video is ready, export it back to Linear as follows:
- Click Export.
- Select Export to Linear.
- Wait for the video to render (about 1–2 minutes).
- After rendering, the finished video link is saved automatically to Linear’s Marketing materials tab under Videos.
Please note:
- The video is transferred to Linear in the aspect ratio you choose during export.
- You can create multiple aspect ratios of the same video at no extra cost. However, each aspect ratio must be exported separately.
- Whether videos are shown in portals and other channels is determined by Linear’s video settings.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Is Amplifiles free for Linear users?
When you sign up for Amplifiles via Linear, you’ll receive 1,200 credits, which allows you to create one free video from up to 8 images.
With the free video, all Amplifiles features are available, and you don’t need to add a payment card during sign-up.
Once the free credits have been used, videos cost approx. €1.30 / animated image.
How much does one video cost?
The price of a video depends on the number of images used.
- Animating one image costs 150 credits (approx. €1.30*).
- The total cost of the video is calculated as: number of images used × 150 credits.
* The service’s default currency is US dollars (USD). Prices are converted to euros based on the current exchange rate.
You can choose the way that suits you best to purchase credits:
- purchase exactly the number of credits needed for a single video
- purchase a larger credit package, which lowers the price per image
Please note that credits are purchased in Amplifiles, not through Linear.
In the future, monthly plans will also be available, including a set number of credits per month.
Re-animating an image
- The first re-animation of an image is free.
- Additional re-animations of the same image cost 50 credits (approximately USD 0.5).
Why does the video look blurry or low-quality?
The most common reason for blurry or unclear video is the quality of the original images. Amplifiles uses the images added to Linear as they are.
Recommended solutions:
- Use original, high‑resolution images.
- Avoid screenshots and images downloaded from social media platforms.
- Ensure the images have not been compressed or downsized before uploading them to Linear.
When the original image is sharp, the final video will also be sharp.
What if something strange appears in the image or video?
Because the images are animated using AI, the movement may sometimes emphasize or reveal details that weren't meant to be noticed in the original photo. This can appear, for example, in mirrors, reflections, or along the edges of the image.
Recommended solutions:
- Crop the image: Remove unwanted areas and direct the viewer’s focus where you want it.
- Adjust the movement speed: Slower or faster motion can change what the viewer’s attention is drawn to.
- Re-animate the image: The first re-animation of any image is always free and often resolves the issue entirely.
In most cases, these adjustments fix the issue without additional cost.
Can the same video be used across different channels and formats?
Yes. When you export the video to Linear by selecting Export and Export to Linear, the video is transferred in the aspect ratio you chose during export.
You can create multiple aspect ratios from the same video for different purposes:
- Vertical (9:16): Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook Stories
- Horizontal (16:9): portals, websites, YouTube
- Square (1:1): social feeds and ads
Creating and exporting different formats to Linear does not incur additional costs.
Can I add a logo, music, or text to a video?
Yes. You can add, for example:
- your company logo
- text such as the address or contact details
- background music or your own audio file
- a voice-over and subtitles
If your company would like a ready-made branded template for all videos, please contact Amplifiles directly. With a template, videos will maintain a consistent look without manual adjustments.
How long does it take to create a video?
Building a video in Amplifiles usually takes about 3–4 minutes. Rendering the finished video then takes an additional 1–2 minutes.
In total, creating a video typically takes about 5 minutes.
Can multiple people use the same account or the same credits?
Yes, Amplifiles supports team use.
If you are an admin user, you can add other users to your team from the Team tab. When users are part of the same team:
- all team members can see the same videos
- credits are shared by the team
This allows the team to create and manage videos together without separate accounts or credit balances.
