Generate videos using AI

Creating professional videos for all kinds of business, marketing, and even educational purposes is now an achievable feat even for those without video editing experience. Synthesia taps into the power of artificial intelligence to turn text prompts and templates into well-made video paraphernalia. However, the web app’s services don’t come for free, as a monthly subscription is necessary before one can access its full suite of features.

Synthesia’s easy-to-use, template-based mechanics may remind you of Canva. At the same time, this AI-powered video generator and editor is also highly beginner-friendly, with non-complicated controls and a neat canvas.

Pick a template and start editing

Interestingly, Synthesia promises a finished output within 15 minutes. No additional equipment or professional-level editing skills are also required from the user—just a basic understanding of the web app’s features will go a long way. The overall video editing process is straightforwardand beginner-friendly, too, and there is a generous selection of templates and elements to play around with. 

Once the user has successfully selected a template, they can modify the elements accordingly. Choose an avatar from a diverse selection of more than 140 AI-generated ones. The language can also be chosen from over 120 languages, including regional accents for some countries. No longer will you need a paid actor to act or speak for your videos and other materials.

Besides that, it can also be used in collaboration mode, allowing multiple creators to work on one video. Comments can also be added, minimizing the need to jump between apps. However, a monthly subscription is necessary to utilize the web application’s capabilities. Also, one of the possible drawbacks is that some parts of the voiceovers may come out sounding awkward, especially when complex text is being used.

User-friendly and packed with lots of features

With Synthesia’s powerful suite of AI-fueled features, creating videos of almost any kind of purpose is now made quick and easy. Users get access to a user-friendly interface equipped with tons of tools and elements to try by paying a monthly fee. The web app also offers more than 140 diverse avatars and supports over 120 languages. However, since the content is AI-generated, there may be inevitable flaws in the finished products.
