Visually consistent video content at scale

Use AI Avatars to save time, increase output, and stay on script

Reduce time spent recording and focus on online expansion

Leveraging AI Avatars allows content creators to expand their reach and explore new markets that may have previously been out of reach due to time constraints. Kapwing's AI Avatar Maker allows users to generate polished, professional video content without the need for repeated recordings.


AI Avatars are designed to deliver your brand message with clarity and precision, reducing the risk of human error during recording. Upload a video of yourself and Kapwing’s AI technology generates an identical AI Persona that mirrors your appearance and mannerisms. Simply edit the text to alter what your avatar says — best of all, anyone can generate 30 seconds of video content using our AI Avatar Maker for free.

Maintain a consistent brand across multiple projects

Establishing a recognizable brand voice across multiple projects is critical for modern content creators. AI Avatars can help you find a unified yet adaptable voice that works across social media, training material, adverts, and marketing assets.


Branch out from creating an avatar identical to yourself and explore Kapwing's diverse range of talking Stock Personas. Meticulously evaluate everything from their clothing to accents and select the Persona that best fits your brand. Whether responding to current events, launching a new product, or creating training tutorials for a large company, Kapwing’s avatars enable you to respond quickly and effectively with HD videos.

Streamline the lip-syncing process with one click

Kapwing understands the most technically challenging aspect of creating an AI Avatar is often the lip-syncing process between audio and video. Our advanced AI-driven technology eliminates this concern — hit the 'Project Export' button and your video is ready for download with speech and lips in sync. Spend more time carefully crafting your script (or use Kapwing's AI Script Generator) and less time recording and editing.

Personalize your content with a recognizable character

It's easy to personalize tutorials, product demos, educational content, and company announcements with the use of an AI Avatar. Upload a video of yourself and let your clone handle any script with precision and consistency, even when dealing with complex or technical topics. Use your new avatar as an extension of yourself with the familiarity of your face adding a personal touch across a broader scale of content.

Expanding education on the use of AI

Kapwing's 'Educational' section is designed to showcase the capabilities of open-source lip sync technologies while helping to educate the public on how AI can be used. By experimenting with celebrity deepfakes, users can understand how convincingly AI can generate fake speech. All videos featuring celebrity personas come with a permanent watermark to indicate they are AI-generated. Using these personas for purposes outside of education violates our Terms of Service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bob, our kitten, thinking

What is an AI Avatar?

An AI Avatar is a digital representation of a person, created by artificial intelligence. They mirror human appearance, voice, and behaviors, and can be found in video, image, or audio form. On social media, AI Avatars are often known in the form of 'deepfakes' where celebrities and famous people of interest are mimicked with fake AI-generated audio, video, or both. However, AI Avatars also have a lot of practical uses, particularly in the world of customer service and education.

What app is everyone using for AI Avatars?

As of 2024, some of the most used AI Avatar apps include Lensa AI, Fotor AI, Prequel, and Dawn AI. Alternatively, you can use Kapwing's online AI Persona tool that simplifies sharing and collaboration, offering more flexibility than traditional apps. With a shared online workspace, you can quickly share feedback with your team using real-time comments.

What is the best online AI Avatar?

There are many AI Avatars available both online and via apps. Popular AI generators include Synthesia and HeyGen. For the complete online editing package, we recommend Kapwing. Alongside the creation of an AI Avatar, you can use hundreds of editing tools to enhance the quality of your video. Because Kapwing is online, edits are saved in real time to prevent data loss and allow easy collaboration.

Is there a free AI Avatar generator?

Many online and app AI Avatar generators offer a mix of free and paid features. For a high-quality video shot in HD with customizable editing features and accurate lip-syncing, you will likely need a paid AI Avatar generator. Fortunately, you can generate up to 30 seconds of free video content to test Kapwing's AI Avatar Maker. If you decide you want to create regular content using your new avatar then you can join Kapwing via subscription.

How do I create a talking AI Avatar?

You can create a talking AI Avatar in three steps using Kapwing. 1) Upload a video file of yourself directly talking to the camera. 2) Select a new AI-generated voice to replace yours. 3) Add the video to your timeline and edit the text box to change what your AI Avatar says.

Are AI Avatars based on real people?

Yes, AI Avatars work best when based on human models. A host of popular avatar generators create stock avatars from video footage of real actors, including Synthesia, HeyGen, Kapwing, and TikTok's Gen AI Avatars.

What can I use Kapwing's Educational Personas for?

You can use Kapwing's 'Educational' section to get a better understanding of how deepfake content is generated using the latest open-source lip sync technologies. Users can only publish Persona videos using people that they have been granted permission to use. Use a video of yourself, choose an approved stock Persona, or get explicit permission when using a video of someone else to train as a Persona. Using a celebrity or anyone else you do not have permission to use is prohibited and against Kapwing's Terms of Service.

By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a Youtube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.
