I love that I can quickly send out a concept just by using a PowerPoint that I already have, and being able to burn in closed captions is really helpful. It's so easy to use and to edit, and even without formal training, I can make professional videos in minutes.

I am trying out Synthesia as a communication tool, which has proven very effective so far. Most of my intended audience have not even noticed that the avatar is created with artificial intelligence.

Having a presenter who can instantly say what you want to say (and in the way you want to say it) is invaluable. A remarkable new authoring tool, without a doubt.

The video quality is hyper-realistic. Sometimes it is difficult to tell that it is not a real actor. The voice is far better than most text-to-speech engines out there.

When creating courses with audio, if the narrator leaves the organization, we don't have to settle for two different voices or search for a similar voice. We can easily recreate all voiceovers with Synthesia.

Frequently asked questions about AI text to video

What is text to video AI?

Text to video AI is software that creates a video from written text, like a prompt, script, document, or webpage. With Synthesia, Syren, our AI video agent, turns that text into a finished video with an AI presenter, scenes, visuals, voiceover, and music.

How does text to video AI work?

You describe the video you want and add any text you already have, like a script, PDF, or webpage. The AI reads it and plans a storyboard you can review. For short prompts, you can also pick from three creative directions, each with a preview, avatars, and a music sample. Then every scene is generated with an AI avatar, voiceover, motion graphics, B-roll, and music, and you refine the result by chatting. Most videos are ready in minutes.

What’s the best AI text to video converter?

According to G2, Synthesia is the best AI video generator, ranked #1 out of 1,000+ tools in its Best AI Video Generators list. It turns any text into a finished video, not just a short clip, with script, scenes, voiceover, and music, and you can add realistic AI avatars as presenters. It’s trusted by 90% of the Fortune 100.

Is Synthesia’s text to video AI free?

Yes. You can make your first text to video for free, with no credit card required. The free plan lets you turn prompts, scripts, and documents into videos, add AI avatars and voiceovers in 140+ languages, and generate clips from text in AI Playground with models like Veo 3.1 and FLUX 3.

How long can a video be?

Videos can be up to 60 minutes long, depending on your plan, in landscape or portrait. For anything longer than 15 minutes, you’ll be asked to confirm the plan before the video is built.

How is Synthesia different from AI video models like Veo 3.1?

AI video models like Veo 3.1 turn text into short clips. Synthesia turns your text into a whole video, with a script, scenes, voiceover, and music. If you’d rather generate individual clips, Veo 3.1, Gemini Omni, and FLUX 3 are built into AI Playground.

Can I make text to video in other languages?

Yes. Synthesia supports AI voiceovers in 140+ languages, so you can turn text into videos for audiences around the world. You can also use AI dubbing to translate finished videos with natural-sounding voices.

Can ChatGPT convert text to video?

Yes, with the Synthesia MCP. In ChatGPT, add the Synthesia app. In Claude, add the Synthesia connector. Sign in to your Synthesia account, then paste your text or attach a file and ask for a video. The video appears in the chat, where you can refine it, download it, or publish a share link for your team.

Can I use text to video AI for commercial projects?

Yes. You own the videos you create with Synthesia and can use them for commercial projects like marketing, sales, and company communications. Make sure you have the rights to anything you upload, such as images, footage, or logos.

Is Synthesia suitable for enterprise use?

Yes. Synthesia is trusted by 90% of the Fortune 100, is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 42001 certified, and is GDPR compliant. Enterprise plans add SSO, Brand Kits, and admin controls.

Not just an AI text to video tool

Synthesia is the AI video platform for business, built for creating, localizing, and sharing video at scale. Alongside text to video, you can put a presenter on screen with AI avatars, record and narrate your screen with the AI screen recorder, and reach new markets with AI video translation.
