What You Can Test on the Free Plan
Avatar Realism
Generate a script into a talking-head video with one of Synthesia's stock avatars to judge quality firsthand.
Language Coverage
Test text-to-speech and lip-sync in any of the 140+ supported languages before committing to a paid plan.
Editor Workflow
Try the script-to-video editor to see how much manual editing your training or explainer videos will realistically need.
Tip: Use your free minutes on the exact use case you plan to scale — a training module or product explainer — rather than a generic test script, so you get a realistic read on quality before subscribing.
