HeyGen
AI avatar video generator — create multilingual presenter-led videos with voice cloning and lip sync.
Add HeyGen to your hut →HeyGen is an AI avatar video platform that lets you create professional presenter-led videos without a camera, studio, or on-screen talent. You pick a stock avatar (or clone yourself with a 2-minute video sample), type a script, and get a polished video with natural lip sync in minutes. The video translation feature automatically dubs videos into 40+ languages with matching lip movements — useful for localising training materials, product demos, and marketing videos at scale.
The free tier generates 1 credit (one short video). Creator ($29/mo) covers regular use; Business ($89/mo) adds custom avatar creation and higher volume. Most often compared to Synthesia — HeyGen's edge is voice cloning quality and faster iteration; Synthesia's is enterprise compliance and a broader avatar library for corporate L&D.
