Pricing
We do not reprint prices. They change too often for that to be honest, and a number on our page with no date is worse than sending you to the source.
How we rated it
What it is
Generates video of a person from a script using a likeness built from a recording, including a conversational mode where the video responds in real time.
Who it is for
Teams producing personalised or interactive video at a volume that filming cannot reach.
Where it is strongest
Personalised video at scale — the same message with each recipient's details, where filming hundreds is impossible.
Where it falls short
The uncanny-valley problem is real, and viewers who notice feel deceived rather than impressed. Quality depends heavily on the source recording. And creating a likeness of a person needs their explicit, informed agreement — this is the tool category where that matters most.
Our verdict
Recommended for personalisation at volume, with one condition that is not optional: disclose that it is generated. The trust lost when someone works it out costs more than the video saved.
