AI Video Generator
What is HeyGen and what can I do with it?
HeyGen is an AI video generator that lets you create full AI-powered videos from a text script, an image, or an audio clip. It can include voiceovers, translations, and brand-consistent styles. You can choose from avatars (stock or custom), turn photos into talking visuals, and produce videos in formats that fit your brand and audience.
What inputs can I use to create AI videos?
You can generate AI videos from text and images, stock images, or audio. You can also upload a reference image to animate an avatar or transform a photo into a talking video. HeyGen supports multiple voices, accents, and languages for your narration.
How do I create an AI video of myself?
Upload a short clip or reference image, then type your script in HeyGen. The platform will generate a video with realistic AI motion and voice. You can animate, adjust format, and create explainers, social clips, or other content.
What types of videos can I create with HeyGen?
HeyGen can be used to create explainer videos, marketing and sales promos, product demos, training and onboarding content, personalized outreach videos, and social media clips. It uses realistic AI avatars, natural voices, and multilingual translation to scale production.
Can I customize branding and collaborate with my team?
Yes. You can upload your brand elements (logos, colors, fonts, images, and videos) to keep videos on-brand. You can also collaborate with teammates on the platform by commenting, tagging, and editing together in real time.
Can I translate or dub videos into other languages?
Yes. HeyGen supports 175+ languages and dialects with natural lip-sync and subtitles that preserve voice, tone, and pacing. You can auto-translate videos and localize content at scale, with voice cloning helping to keep a consistent voice across languages.
How does audio and voice work? Can I use my own voice or clone a voice?
HeyGen offers multiple voice styles, languages, and avatars. It supports voice cloning to keep your chosen voice consistent across languages, and it provides lip-sync to match the visuals with the audio.
How long does it take to generate a video?
Many videos generate in about a minute. Longer videos, more scenes, or heavier effects may take a few minutes, but generation is generally fast.
