What is HeyGen?

HeyGen is an AI video generator that creates videos from text, images, and audio. It supports explainer videos, marketing and sales promos, product demos, training and onboarding content, personalized outreach videos, and social media clips. Users pick an avatar, enter a script or upload a deck, and choose a voice and language before adjusting visuals and branding, generating the video, and exporting it. The platform combines realistic AI avatars, natural AI voices, and multilingual translation for these video creation workflows.
