AI avatar video, with a free plan capped at a few videos.

## Overview

HeyGen generates talking-avatar video from a script. The pricing FAQ says the free plan can make up to 3 videos a month, and paid plans spend a monthly credit balance on generation, translation, and assets. It does not hire a human creator or buy an audience.

## What users say

One Trustpilot reviewer says a short vertical test looked real before they paid.

Other reviews say the plan limits are easy to miss, credits burn on a bad render, avatars do not look like the person, and cancellation instructions fail.
