HeyGen is a platform for creating videos using AI-generated talking avatars. With a large selection of over 500 digital avatars and templates, users can produce professional-looking videos without needing to film anyone or record voiceovers.
To create a video, you choose an avatar (a realistic virtual presenter), input a script or text, and select a voice and language. HeyGen’s AI then generates a video of that avatar delivering the script with synchronized speech and natural-looking movements.
The platform supports many languages and even offers content translation features, enabling the same video to be easily reproduced for different audiences. Users can also customize backgrounds, add text overlays, and include music or graphics to enhance the final video. Common use cases for HeyGen include marketing content, explainer videos, training modules, and social media clips. By leveraging AI avatars, HeyGen greatly reduces the time and cost of producing engaging video content while maintaining a human touch through its lifelike presenters.
