What it's used for

HeyGen is an AI video platform focused on creating avatar-based videos for business communications, marketing, and sales. It specializes in producing realistic talking-head videos and offers powerful video translation and localization features, making it a go-to tool for companies that need to create video content at scale across multiple languages.

  • AI avatar videos — select from 300+ stock avatars or create a custom avatar from a 2-minute video recording
  • Video translation — translate existing videos into 40+ languages with automatic lip-sync matching and voice cloning
  • Personalized video — generate hundreds of personalized sales or outreach videos using CSV data and dynamic variables
  • Streaming avatars — real-time AI avatar for interactive customer support, demos, and live chat
  • Template library — pre-built video templates for training, marketing, e-commerce, and social media

Sales teams, marketing departments, e-learning creators, and companies with global audiences use HeyGen to produce professional video content without cameras or studios. Its video translation feature is particularly powerful — you can take an existing video of someone speaking English and generate a version in Japanese, Spanish, or Arabic where the person's lips match the translated audio perfectly.

HeyGen integrates with Zapier, HubSpot, and other platforms for automated video creation in marketing and sales workflows.
