Synthesia
Create professional AI videos from text — no cameras or actors needed
About Synthesia
Synthesia is an AI video generation platform that creates professional videos from text scripts — no cameras, studios, or actors required. The platform offers 150+ AI avatars that speak in 130+ languages with natural lip-sync and gestures.
Marketers use Synthesia for product demos, training videos, social media content, personalized sales outreach, and internal communications. The editor supports custom backgrounds, screen recordings, media uploads, and branded templates.
The platform's key differentiator is speed and cost: a video that would take days to produce traditionally can be generated in minutes. Enterprise users can create custom AI avatars based on real people (with consent) for consistent brand representation.
