Synthesia is an AI video platform that lets people turn a written script into a polished video presented by an AI avatar, without cameras, actors or a studio. It is built for businesses across departments such as learning and development, sales, HR, marketing and IT, and is used by companies including Reuters, Zoom, SAP, Heineken and Merck.
A user picks an avatar, writes or pastes a script in any supported language, and Synthesia generates a video with a synchronized voice and lip-sync; the result can be edited, translated into another language with one click while keeping the lip-sync intact, styled with a Brand Kit for consistent colors and logos, and then published. The platform includes more than 240 avatars and over 1,000 AI voices across more than 160 languages, along with live collaboration, analytics on views and engagement, interactive avatars for roleplay-style sessions, and version control for updating published videos.
A free plan includes ten minutes of video per month with a choice of nine avatars and no credit card required. Paid plans raise these limits and unlock more avatars and features, and custom enterprise pricing is available for larger organizations.
