HeyGen
Creates avatar-led videos from a text prompt, with a Video Agent, script editor and translation into 175+ languages
HeyGen is an AI video platform that makes videos presented by lifelike avatars, including a custom avatar trained on the user's own look, voice and gestures. Its Video Agent turns a typed idea into a share-ready video with presenter footage, motion graphics and B-roll.
Key features:
- Avatar V keeps a consistent identity across angles, with lip-sync in 175+ languages.
- Edits script, tone, gestures and emotion in the text-based AI Studio.
- Translates uploaded videos or YouTube links with voice cloning and lip-sync.
- Turns text, images, audio, PowerPoint or PDF files into avatar videos.
- Generates video and images with Seedance, Veo 3.1 and Nano Banana on Pro.
