What is Synthesia?
Synthesia makes AI talking-head videos for enterprise content: training, product walkthroughs, software demos, and onboarding sequences.
Pick from 140+ stock avatars (or pay to create a custom one based on a real person). Write a script. Synthesia generates a finished video in about 5 minutes, with the avatar lipsyncing to your text. Output works in 30+ languages with native-sounding voices, which makes it useful for global L&D teams localizing training content.
Compliance is the differentiator for enterprise buyers. SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, ISO 27001, SAML SSO, audit logs, and role-based permissions all come standard. For legal and security teams evaluating the tool, these features remove the usual friction around adopting AI video.
Paid subscription with tiers scaling by minutes of video generated per month and number of seats. Enterprise pricing is available for teams producing at high volume.
Best for internal training videos, product walkthroughs, and explainer content at scale. For personalized one-to-one outreach where each video addresses a specific person, HeyGen is the more focused alternative.
