AI Video Tools
For businesses that know video converts but don't have a video budget, a camera crew, or the hours to edit — AI-generated video, from a script or a prompt.
AI video tools split into two real jobs: turning a script or article into a presenter-led video with an AI avatar, or generating short social-ready clips from text. The six tools below cover both. Full head-to-head testing — real generated clips, side by side — is in progress.

- SynthesiaAI-avatar video generation, built for training and explainer videos from a script.
