Create Talking Avatars.

Digital Characters with AI.

An AI avatar is a hyper-realistic digital representation of a human created using artificial intelligence. These avatars are capable of delivering human-like speech, facial expressions, and gestures—making them ideal for scalable video creation, virtual communication, and digital content.

At HeyGen, our AI avatars are built with consented data from real actors and talent. We ensure ethical AI practices by compensating actors for each video generated with their likeness, combining cutting-edge generative AI with responsible content creation.
