What is HeyGen's AI video generator?
HeyGen's AI video generator turns a script, URL or creative idea into a finished video, without a camera, crew or editor. Write what you want, avatars perform it, B-roll fills it out, a voice-over narrates it and captions sync with every word. It all runs in a browser tab.
Everything you need in an AI video generator
From prompt to finished video, all in Video Agent
Skip the blank canvas. Describe the AI-powered video you want, and Video Agent handles the script, scenes, avatar, voice, pacing and captions. Available in HeyGen, ChatGPT and via API. Start with more than 100 templates for ads, social media, demos and explainer videos, or use PDF to video to turn a slide deck into a finished video. The fastest way to produce a polished video when you need it straight away.
Cinematic B-roll with leading AI video generators
The best AI video generators available are integrated directly into the editor: Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.0 and Kling 3.0. Choose the right model for the shot, add a video clip to your scene and keep working. No extra subscription, no second login, and no need to export and re-upload. Turn simple text into cinematic video, animate AI-generated images with first- and last-frame locks, or generate AI videos for product highlights and lifestyle shots without leaving your workflow.
Our most lifelike avatars, powered by Avatar V
Avatar V is HeyGen's latest avatar model. Record yourself once on a webcam for 15 seconds. Avatar V learns how you move, gesture and speak, then performs in any outfit, setting or look, with phoneme-level lip-sync in more than 175 languages and dialects. Use a stock avatar, create a digital twin of yourself or animate a still photo with Avatar IV.
Direct your video shots like a filmmaker
Pick a lens. Choose a move. Stack them. Dolly, push, orbit, crane or handheld, with real depth of field and natural parallax. Advanced controls give you seamless transitions between shots. Add a reference clip and the AI matches the pacing, gestures and choreography. Describe the mood and tailor the visual style without writing a 200-word prompt. It’s the closest thing to a real film camera, without needing one.
Add voices, audio and captions in one place
Add AI voiceovers in more than 175 languages and dialects, clone your own voice or sync any character to any audio with one click. Add licensed music, create sound effects from a text prompt and automatically caption every clip with frame-accurate subtitles. Save them as SRT files or burn them into the video.
Edit videos in AI Studio, with no need to reshoot
Upload existing footage to AI Studio and change the visual style, swap an object, AI face swap, relight a scene or refine details, all from a text prompt. Frame-level control when you want it. AI does the rest when you don't. The full editor sits next to the generator, so you can move from rough cut to polished asset without switching tools.
