Mainly, Synthesia meets the need of not relying on a human voiceover artist, with all that it entails (financially, time-wise, and in terms of labor). It has dramatically increased my productivity.

Allowing me to produce high-quality learning content in a literal fraction of the time it would take me to create something myself that is only 20% as good. It's allowing me to scale my output without scaling my hours at work or my department's headcount.

Synthesia allows us to use video formats where usually there is not enough time or money to do so. So far it's been used for training products (for our employees as well as for our customers) but also for internal communication like news, introducing software products, or explaining new processes.

An app democratizing the future of video and media. Fast, versatile, intuitive, and easy-to-navigate user interface. For someone like me who is passionate about video, having used different products, this one is a favorite. Not only does it let anyone produce an excellent talking head video in minutes, but it also does so much more. Multilingual text-to-speech with an increasing number of avatars that speak and act like an actual human. Or wait a second, they are in fact actual humans. Probably the most encouraging thing is the team's commitment to delivering to the highest standard. This alone guarantees a world-class product.

The app is quite impressive, even in its early stages. The variety of avatars to choose from and the text-to-speech options (different accents, tempo, pronunciations, etc.) are amazing. I like that I can send a link to my clients so they can watch, listen and choose their favorite 'actor.' After developing the video, I can enable Share & Duplicate Video and send the link (my source file/work) to the client - another excellent feature!

It is great for regular announcements on programming and as an accommodation for the hearing impaired. We work primarily with youth ages 14-22, and they seem to be more willing to watch the video than they are to read a long email. We also recently used it as a loop for an exhibit at a music education convention, and it seemed to attract a lot of people's attention.

The creation of the videos is very similar to create a power point slide deck, so the learning curve is very flat. A great feature Synthesia offers is screen caption, either as a background or a video. A nice feature is to use a finished video as a new template, so corrections and new background can be added without recreating the video anew.

The biggest problem I have is producing quality voiceovers. You can hire a professional voiceover spokesperson but this takes days and can cost hundreds of dollars. Or you can do it yourself and, in my case for lack of good equipment and a professional sounding voice, quality suffers. Synthesia's AI driven technology produces near human voice results which are shockingly realistic. All of this saves time and money.

At CEMEX University, we're using Synthesia to create explainer videos because it is just easier, faster, and more cost-effective to use Synthesia than to record an actual person doing the explanation. Their great variety of avatars makes it easy to adapt to most types of learning or communication initiatives, and the flexibility of producing the content in multiple languages has made Synthesia a go-to resource for many of our new programs.

The main problems I can solve with Synthesia are creating videos in a very short period of time, especially when advertising a special offer for creating a project for a client quickly. This is valuable because it makes everyone happy. A major benefit is having human-like speech.

The fact that you can create a video in multiple languages and quickly change it after finding a mistake or if the information changes is a breeze. We no longer have to hassle with making videos, taking care of background, lighting, multiple takes, editing, etc. This is our go-to method now, and we have already had clients wanting to use it for their own businesses.
