About HeyGen
HeyGen creates videos with lifelike AI avatars that speak your script. You can pick a stock avatar, or create a digital twin of yourself from a short recording, then generate videos for social media, marketing, sales and training.
One of its best known features is video translation: upload a video and HeyGen translates the speech into another language and matches the lip movements, so it looks like you are speaking that language.
There is a free plan to test it with watermarked videos. Paid plans remove the watermark, unlock custom avatars and add more video credits, and the Team and Enterprise plans add seats, shared brand assets and API access.
