Synthesia
Enterprise AI video platform — turn text into training, marketing and explainer videos with realistic avatars in 140+ languages.
About Synthesia
Synthesia is the business-grade counterpart to creator avatar tools: companies use it to produce training, onboarding, compliance and product videos without cameras or studios. You pick from a large library of professional avatars (or create a digital twin of an employee), paste a script, and Synthesia generates a presenter video with slides, screen recordings and branding, in more than 140 languages. Its strengths are consistency, translation at scale and enterprise controls. A limited free plan exists for testing; paid plans unlock longer videos, more avatars and commercial production.
