HeyGen

HeyGen is an AI video platform for creating presenter-led videos without a camera, crew, or studio. You choose an avatar, add a script and a voice, and generate a video that can be localized into other languages. The product combines avatar generation, text to speech, video translation, and an AI video agent in a browser-based editor. It is used by individuals, teams, and businesses for marketing, training, and localized communications.

FAQ

Do I need a camera or studio to make a HeyGen video?

No. HeyGen generates the presenter from an avatar, so you can produce a video from a script without filming a person or booking a studio.

Can I create an avatar that looks like me?

Yes. A custom video avatar can use your own voice and likeness. The Free plan includes one custom video avatar, and paid plans expand what you can create.

How many languages does HeyGen support?

HeyGen lists 175+ languages and dialects for translation and localization. The Free plan starts with 30+ languages.

What does the free plan include?

The Free plan costs $0 per month and includes 3 watermarked videos per month, each up to 1 minute, plus access to Avatar IV and Video Agent.

Is there an API for developers?

HeyGen links to a separate API pricing page, which covers developer access to its video generation capabilities.

Can I export without the HeyGen watermark?

Yes. Removing HeyGen branding is listed as a Creator feature, so paid plans can export cleaner videos than the Free plan.
