Synthesia

AI avatar video generator for training, explainers, and multilingual L&D.

4.5 rating Paid From ~$18/mo

Overview

Synthesia turns a script into an AI presenter video. “AI avatar,” “Synthesia pricing,” and “training video software” are B2B keywords — L&D, HR tech, and localisation advertisers pay up.

Starter plans are often in the high teens per month for a modest minute cap. Enterprise adds custom avatars, SSO, and brand kits. You do not get Runway-style cinematic gens; you get a reliable talking head in 140+ languages.

If you film yourself anyway, Descript may be cheaper. If you need the same compliance video in twelve languages by Friday, Synthesia is the tool.

Synthesia FAQ

Is Synthesia free?

Trials exist. Production minutes are paid.

Does it look fake?

Good scripts and lighting-matched avatars look acceptable for training. Film a human for brand films.

Synthesia vs Runway?

Synthesia = presenter. Runway = generative B-roll.

Can I preview on my phone?

Yes, exports play fine on mobile. Building the video is easier on a laptop.
