Add a digital presenter to your videos that speaks your script.

AI Avatars are digital presenters that lip-sync to your script. Choose from over 100 avatars to add a human face to your video without recording yourself.


What are AI Avatars

AI Avatars use D-ID technology to generate realistic talking-head videos. When you select an avatar, it speaks your script text with natural lip movements and expressions.

Avatars work alongside your chosen AI voice—the voice controls how the script sounds, while the avatar provides the visual face.


When to use avatars

Avatars work well for:

  • Training and educational videos

  • Product demos and explainers

  • Personalized messages

  • Content where a human presenter adds credibility


How to add an avatar

  1. Select a section with voiceover in the timeline.

  2. Open the voice settings in the right panel.

  3. Click the avatar selector next to the voice.

  4. Browse the avatar gallery and select a presenter.

  5. Generate your video—the avatar will speak your script.


Avatar and voice pairing

Voice and avatar are separate choices. Each voice has a default avatar that matches well, but you can mix any voice with any avatar.

The avatar list sorts to show matching options first based on the voice you selected.


Requirements

AI Avatars require a Business plan. If you see an upgrade prompt when selecting an avatar, you need to upgrade to access this feature.
