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 in, a voice-over narrates it, and captions sync with every word. The entire process runs in a browser tab.
Everything you need from 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 scripting, 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 deck into a finished cut. The fastest way to produce a polished video when you need it right away.
Cinematic B-roll with the best AI video generators
The best AI video generators on the market 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 exporting and re-uploading. Turn simple text into cinematic video, animate AI-generated images with first- and last-frame locks, or generate AI videos for product moments and lifestyle shots without leaving your workflow.
The most realistic avatars, powered by Avatar V
Avatar V is HeyGen's newest 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 customize the visual look without writing a 200-word prompt. It's the closest thing to a real film camera—without the camera.
Add voices, sound, and captions in one place
Layer in AI voiceovers in 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 in.
Edit videos in AI Studio—no reshoots required
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. Get 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 a rough cut to a polished asset without switching tools.
