What Synthesia does

Synthesia is an AI video platform that turns text or scripts into presenter-led videos using a library of digital avatars. It supports many languages, lets you translate a single script into multiple languages while keeping the same avatar, and is heavily used for corporate training, onboarding, and internal communications.

Who it’s for

L&D and communications teams that produce a high volume of training and onboarding video across many languages.

Key features

• Collaboration and review workflows for teams

Limitations

• Avatars are presentational, not suited to dynamic or cinematic content
• Custom avatar creation and higher volume require paid tiers
