What do HeyGen users think?
I was able to quickly create a video for a cool activity to represent the technology in the world. I love that the products provide numerous ethnicities and so many options for voices ranging from serious to cheerful.
A team is very innovative. The project is well-maintained and rapidly improving. Lots of cool features have already been released and a lot more to come.
I highly recommend HeyGen for their cutting-edge custom avatar feature. This feature allows users to create a personalized virtual representation of themselves, which can be used to interact with other users within the platform.
I created an Avatar Lite using HeyGen, and it's amazing that I can now make videos without being on camera. As a busy husband and dad with two jobs, no office or recording studio, and five kids, it's a game changer for creating videos and keeping up with the YouTube algorithm.
All of the ingredients needed (templates, avatars, voice-tone and speed adjustments, page editing, ChatGPT interface for writing) were there. I didn't need to use any other apps. The lip sync and face movements were realistic enough for my purposes.
I met HeyGen through Youtube. Personally, I did not know any artificial intelligence platform. I didn't think there could be a platform like HeyGen that would allow for such spectacular video editing. The avatar are working very good, it seems like real.
The interface is very intuitive and easy to use. The video quality is amazing. I can't tell the difference between their AI videos and real people. Tons of options available.
I wanted to take a moment to express my excitement about the AI software we have developed. It truly is unique and unlike anything I have seen before. The simplicity of its design, combined with its advanced capabilities, make it a truly exceptional product.
Oh my word!! What a fantastic product. You can use for presentations, seminars, training and so much more. We have only just scratched the surface but will use HeyGen throughout our business. Well done HeyGen.
The easy way to manipulate! Tools needed to improve! like walking avatar, moving around, or chroma or transparent bg. but it is the future now!
Very easy and with interesting features.
HeyGen est très facile à prendre en main, l'application permet de réaliser des vidéos de grande qualité dans des délais records.
It is intuitive to use, the avatars are realistic and the available templates are a great help.
I'm impressed by HeyGen's AI avatars function. Over 100 avatars in various nationalities, styles, and accents allow me to effortlessly make a lip-syncing spokesperson video.
I love the feature where you can create a full video with just a photo. It's amazing how realistic I look speaking in front of the screen. It truly looks as if I'm saying it.
I was amazed at the syncing between the audio and the avatar. It's natural, and the facial expressions correspond so well!
