AI Video & Voice
HeyGen
Presenter videos generated from a script.
HeyGen generates a video with an avatar reading a script, which suits training, localisation and social clips that would otherwise need a camera and a shoot. Avatar quality varies by plan and language, and what you get is hosted synthetic video rather than footage you own.
