    Synthesia has made video creation far more accessible for our team. We are able to turn written scripts into polished, professional videos without needing a studio, camera, or on-camera talent. The platform is intuitive, the output quality is consistently strong, and updating content is as simple as editing the script. It has noticeably reduced both the time and cost of producing training and communication videos.

Dislike

The templates and AI features do not generate a good starting place for the content. Text is too small, transitions and videos are awkward and the virtual avatar can feel too robotic and cold sometimes.
