Our review

HeyGen is an AI avatar video platform with lifelike avatars, lip-sync, multilingual dubbing and rich templates, ideal for talking-head, training and marketing videos at scale.

Runtime is metered, advanced features are paid, and realism has limits; but if you want to make multilingual talking-head videos in bulk without going on camera, HeyGen's efficiency is hard to match.
