HeyGen is an AI video creation platform that generates videos featuring realistic AI avatars from text, images, audio or existing presentations. It is aimed at content creators, educators, marketers and businesses that want to produce narrated video without filming a person on camera.
A user starts from a typed script, an uploaded slide deck, an image, an audio file or reference footage, and the platform animates an avatar with a synchronized voiceover and lip-sync in more than 175 languages. Its AI Studio editor allows adjusting tone, gestures and emotion in the generated video, a Video Agent can produce an editable draft video directly from a text prompt, and translation tools convert existing videos into other languages while preserving lip-sync. Custom avatars require on-camera identity verification before they can be created.
HeyGen provides a free tier with basic text-to-video and avatar creation. Paid subscription tiers expand generation limits and add further features, and a separate API pricing track is available for developers who want to build HeyGen's video generation into their own applications.
